It's evray's "surprising, en to us, to note we ran a total of 56 pho tographs and over 1,000 column inches of material on the four elementary schools, the junior and senior high. Had someone wanted to buy such a campaign at space rates, it would've cost them $1,055.60. Of course, such material couldn't be purchased because newspapers just don't sell editorial space. Aim of the series wa3 to better acquaint Murray people with subjects offered in their school system, the manner of teaching and extracurricular activities in which their youngsters indulge. Judging from comment which has come back to school officials, there is little question but that it accomplished its purpose. Certainly one thing which it must've brought home to parents children is the value of school-ag- e of public relations betw een schools and various mediums of information. We at the Eagle feel the series was a valuable asset to our news columns. It provided interesting reading for those who had even the most remote connection with the schools. - Overheard a businessman the other day telling a colleague: "I wanted my son to share In the business, but the government beat him to it!" door.

We've commented before on our opinion of such public relations. Perhaps the following story brings out the point more clearly than would our words. It was written by an unidentified youngster who came away with definite Impressions of how the Eagle is produced. "Our classroom 13 went to a newspaper called the Murray Eagle. The Murray Eagle gave us a guide. Her name was Rosel-le- n Vogeltanz. First, we went to the main office where you can call and put an ad in the paper. So I said my dog was lost yesterday and I would like to put an ad in the paper to see if anyone has found him. Our guide said, 'Well, first you would go or call the main office. They would ask what you wanted and you would tell your problem. Next you would tell what your dog looked like. They would say we'll try to get It in the next edition. Then he would put It in a box and when the box was full he would take it to the print room to a man who operates the Intertype. The man types, one sentence and then he looks at the article. This goes on and on until all the ads are through. "When It is cooled off the type man goes to work. He gets a copy and starts to get the type ready. Of course, there are many other ads and it took a long time to get to my ad. "After the man has set all the type he goes to the main office to get some large pieces of paper. He puts the pieces of paper evenly on a large flat piece of steel. Some wooden bars push the paper against the print, then it goes through the folding machine.
