R. Jones from their son, Dr. John Jones, who ,1s on the staff of the Louisville City at Louisville, Kentucky, Hospital one of the regions devastated by the recent floods. Likening a newspaper to the part played by a gentleman rather than a naughty boy, as sometimes pictured in films, B. J. Lewis, editorial director of the Albany Evening News, has declared that editors and publishers are guided by a policy of fair play and good conduct. A gentleman is conscious of his conduct, of civic responsibility and moral uplift, said Mr. Lewis, and declared that a newspaper attempts to carry out this same relationship to the community. Mr. Lewis who is also editor of the Knickerbocker Press, said that the Bible Is the best editorial guide and its writers produced the most interesting news stories In history. .
