Here is one of the great vital facts about tle people of this cowntry; Phere are fow American children, fewer American women and still fewer Amemean men who do not habitually read the newspapers, To localize this fact: In the densely populated districts included in aad tributary to (be Greater New York more ‘han © per cent, of the people, the little ohfidren excluded, read one newspaper a Jay, and about #@ per cent read two or more. HEADING PRO. PLE OF THE wort, Tt is impossible to read a newspaper without having the ideas expanded, the horizon widened, Any eye, however dull and careless, wandering from headline to headline, is sure to take in some facts k that add at least a little something to the mental capacity, But it is possible to read a newspaper so that one hour spent at it is an hour of the highest and broadest education, For each day a newspaper is a concentration of appeals to every mental faculty. An intelligent, carefully planned, resourceful newspaper with a complete equipment-such, for instance, as The World has for both its morning and its evening editions-—is laid out first of all on lines to make it easy reading. ‘There is no royal road to learning” ¢|nsed to be the favorite maxim of those who called and thought themselves Jearned, And to make their maxim hold they spent much time and gray matter in devising ways of keeping intelligence from “the vulgar herd.” This aristocratic Pome tmeeeeenet . 4 ‘THE MODI idea still holds with many of our colleges and bist bea some fow of our magazines and newspapers maw But the moat of the purveyors of intelli oe gence, inchiding all the great world-intel lects, now strive to make intelligence as common as air, as vulgar And it is for this reason that The World and its enlightened contemporaries | make large headlines, print many pictures and by every promising device strive to attract and interest readers and to impress facte upon their minds with the least possible effort to the eye and the t| brain, This cheapening, popularizing of intelligence of course angers t} all the pretenders to superior wisdom and causes the stupid to wag ‘their heads solemnly over the degeneracy of the times and to pre diot dire disaster from the educating of the “ignorant masses,” Thess quote Mr, Pope: Nttle learning Ie a dangerous thing; Ponsemrnnenone Detrik deep or touch not the Plerian spring MR. POPE'S Lat. (here shallow draughts intoxicate the brain, ye And detnking Inrely sober in." ahs pesos 1 ing largely sobers us again MOWwerArERs. This pleasing jingle with its classival allusion seems to settle the case against the Will But sound and seeming are not always sense newspapers, Mr, Pope and his followers kindly explain how « taste for the waters of the “Pierian spring” is ever to be acquired if none inust drink until he is willing to “drink deep” Isn't it a little like the lady in the nursery rhyme who urged her daughter not to swim, but added, “Don't go near the water!” And isn’t a man with a few vague ideas better off than aman with no ideas¢ Isn't it intinitely harder to oppress a fellow with half an idea than a fellow with a vacant mind? It is better @ read the newspaper solely for surface amusement than not to read it at all, But it is better to read it with a view to increasing the amount of entertainment one gets out of its infinite variety of faets of life, A great newspaper is first of all a daily study of human nature, a daily presentation of the comedies, melodramas and tragedies ty) the material world?
