Show An JKdltur'e I'aaa. Ploche (Nev.) Rocord. One of the beauties aud charms of an editor's life is his deadheading it on all occasions. No one who has never feasted on the sweets of that bliss can begin to take in the glory of its happiness. He does 100 worth" of advertising for a railroad, rail-road, guts a pass for a year, rides $i5 worth, and then he is looked upon as a deadhead or a half-blown deadbeat. He putt's a concert troupe $10 worth and gets $1 couiplimeutaries, and is thus passed "free." If the hall is crowded he is grudged the room he occupies, for if his romplimentaries were paying tickets tick-ets lie troup would be so much in pocket. He blows and pulls a church festival free to any desired extent, and does the poster printing at half rates, and rarely gets a thank-you for it. It goes as part of his duty as an editor. Ho does more work gratuitously for the town aud community than all tho rest of population put together, and gets cursed for it all, while iu many instances in-stances where a man who donates a few dollars to a Fourth of July celebration, baseball club or church is generally remembered. re-membered. Oh, it is a sweet thing to be an editor! He passes "free," you know. |
