It cannot give the news for that has been told in the daily, so it mist of necessity resort to scurrilous at- tacks in order to arouse attention. The history of newspaperdom, however, has shewn that such publications have a pre- carious existence and then fade out. Key ; Ernest Regina way, the no ne “Es- West authdty writing in'the maga quire”, states emphatically that) keep. out of the next European { at war he Citi- better sed a war picture if they must see what | war is like.

If you boys don’t stop. making fun of the Congressional Re- cord, they won't print it anymore and we'll be deprived of the use it has been put to. W. R. Gregg, the new chief of the Weather Bureau, states there is no uni- versally accepted definition of the term “tropical” as applied to climate. He. fur- ther advises Ernest F. Coe, executiveiehair- man, of the Everglades National Park Ass’n., that the part of the state, mostly in Monroe County, whieh is included. in the propesed Everglades National Park is usually considered as having a tropical climate. Key West as the only frost-free city inthe United States can definitely state that it has a tropical climate. It might simplify matters if only those places that are never visited by Jack Frost be designated as genuinely tropical. should, rat all} had this to say in a recent letter printed in a Columbus newspaper. “T.would like to say that I have not forgotten my friends in dear old Columbus town, and still claim that city as my home, in spite of the recent publicity given: to Zanesville, which I regret, as I spent most of my years in Columbus and _ studied there.” Which has all the earmarks of Polly turning snob. As if the association of Zanesville with the name of Polly Walters could possibly mean anything to Zanes- ville. When she was wearing her pin feathers the boys here bursted a hamstring keeping her name before the public. Every time we dropped in Dougherty’s barber. shop to have her Dad cut our hair he’d tell us about some new dancing trick of Polly’s which she wished we’d write up. It got so that every time the phone rang we’d know it was Polly’s aunt on the other end of the wire wanting some more publicity on Polly’s going to dance somewhere. Knowing her as we do, our opinion is that after her present flourish she’ll go back to the switchboard. : But now Polly doesn’t want her name associated with Zanesville. Which is all right with Zanesville, But Zanesville wouldn’t have Polly forget this fact for one minute, while she’s floating around on her bubble, that along- side of the brilliant constellation of Zanes- ville folks doing big things in New York City right now she’d shine like a dirty lantern. A GOOD NEWSPAPER Dr. Ernest H. Gruening, famed editor of the Portland (Me.) Evening News, one of America’s outstanding smaller news- papers, has been named editor of the New York Evening Post. What he says in a recent interview should interest every newspaper reader: A newpaper is a public trust. It owes an inviolable obligation to its readers. They are entitled to a truth- ful presentation of news without bias or suppression. They are entitled to the honest expression of the. editor’s views in the editorial columns. The advertiser in the newspaper is entitled to the space that he pays for and nothing more. He does not buy special privileges in the news or edi- , torial columns. f No paper can achieve great suc- cess if it does not live up to these principles. Without them it may pos- sibly prosper financially for a time. But it sets definite limits to its growth unless it has the confidence of its readers. It must-establish its integrity. by consistent intellectual honesty, in- dependence, display. of civic , con- Science and courage. It must not be afraid to run counter to the prejudices “and, desires of its readers. The just ‘éause is not always the popular one. Apart from the service that a free newspaper can render, apart from, its tremendous power for useful leadership, it is my conviction that in the end such a newspaper, provided it is sufficiently financed to carry on a fair length of time, will also achieve the greatest materia) success, which, many believe, cannot come without abdication of certain moral values and standards. DIVIDING A HERD This story of dividing a herd of cows is not new, but it may interest those who have not heard it. Anyway, it is a neat problem. of mathematics. A farmer died possessed of a herd of 7, cows, of which he willed: his wife one- alf, his son one third and his daughter one-ninth. The executor of the will was stumped, but called a mathematical shark to his air, with this happy result: A cow was borrowed from. a neighbor, making 18.
