Show 1 "Keep it out of the papers" is I the cry which the local news- I paper publisher daily hears. To I ' oblige often costs considerable, I though the party who makes the 1 request thinks the granting hald- ly worth saying "thank you" for. I A newspaper is a peculiar thing 1 in the public's eye. The news- I gatherer is stormed at because 1 he gets hold of one item and is 1 abused because he does not get 1 another. Young men, and often fa young women, as well as older persons, perform acts which become be-come legitimate items for publica-k publica-k tion and then rush to the news paper office and beg the editor not to notice their escapades. The next day they condemn the paper for not having published another party doing the same thing they were guilty of, forget-I forget-I ing apparently their late visit to the printing office. |
