Show The Newspaper Job Many people believe that a newspaper news-paper falls together without work or concerted action or plan. Rev. Mc-Leod, Mc-Leod, a Presbyterian minister at Pasadena, was in the opinion, and asked to be allowed to edit an edition edi-tion of the Pasadena Star. The editor gladly accepted the opportunity opportun-ity to go fishing, and the minister took up his duties in the newspaper office. This is how he felt when he found himself at the end of the task, which it must be said, had I been quite creditably. "My time is almost up as I pen this last line; my hand is almost paralized; my brain is befuddled and I am free to confess that I am right glad to vacate the holy spot. Sucn rush and riot and disarray. Such a jumble of potpourri; It strikes me as the effort to bring order out of chaos, and do it lightning quick. "I am reminded of the memorable works. The earth was without form and void, and darkness was upon the face of the waters. Never shall 1 criticise newspaper men more. I shall pray for them. They will have my hearts forbearance henceforth hence-forth and forever. They are the hardest worked, shortest lived, poor est paid brain workers on this weary old world of ours." |
