Now York sr will serve to show

, Goddard T That’s
It «m h* who put th* rad type on the
•rat pops; it was b* who foand ant
that aloapatad type I* more attractive
than short, fat typo; it was ha who
sand* th* Haarat pa pars what they are
today.
Mr. Goddard waa working for the
Now York World when Mr. Hcerat de
cided to atari the Heant paper* theta,
and one night when tha publishers ol
'.lie World went to their offices they
discovered that Mr. Hoaret had taken
the whole staff, beaded by Ur. Cod
'd. Later the World bought Mr.
Uodderd back, and still later Mr.
Heant bought him ones more, and
every time be was bought it was at an
ed vs need figure.
Well, anyhow, our stogy deals with
him afta* ha waa all settled, estab
lished and everything on tha Ameri
can, tha Heant morning daily there.
He was the biggest mao on It, and a
big man in New York Is always hard
to get to. Meanwhile. Mrs Ida C.
Clarke, newspaper woman from Ten
nessee, was In Now York doing free
lance work for tha big dailies, and had
met with cocas eucceee In “painting”
bar stories. She had beca selling them
to the World sight along, but got hold
of a story which she wanted to aee la
the American, and decided she would
get In teach with Mr. Goddard.
Armed with her story aha entered
the American office and asked for the
great Goddard. Of eooraa. she didn't
get te see him.. She hardly expected
to. Hut aha let the repraentanve of
the groat man know that she had a
story which she. believed Mr. Goddard
would like mighty wall to see, and
timed him off to tha subject matter,
wbteh concerned a matter of news
than very much in demand by all the
local papers.
She left the office and waa later
called by phone and told that Mr. God
dard wanted te see her as soon as pos
sible. Howeverv she had gone straight
to the World office and had sold nor
story without the least trouble In the
meantime.
When she appeared at the American
office again, in response to the God
dard summons, she ni shown into his
office. it is a large, dingy place, with
a desk away over in one corner, and at
this desk eat Mr. Goddard, pipe in hie
month, hat on hit had and feet on bis
desk Ho did not look up as she en
tered, but want cm reading something
spread out in hie lap.
Finally he glencod et her coldly,
■aid "Well T" and pa need in his read
'“^WeU?" replied Mrs Clarke, stand-1
log and looking him straight in the
eye.
“You wanted.to aoe me?" eras his
next question.
“No,? she answered, “yaw wanted to
aoe sea 1 am Mrs.Qarts"
"Dm," said the great man. “Yea."
Ha waa about to eay something fur
ther when the Interrupted him with;
' “Pardon me, Mr. Goddard, but I eat
from the South, and perhaps a bit
spoiled by Southern courtesy. If you
will take your hat off your head, your
pipe out of your mouth, and your feet
off dm desk, I shall be glad to hear
what you‘have to ear to me.”
It was like lightning out of a dear
sky, and the wont of It was—for Mr.
Goddard—several man ea the paper
wore listening through the open door
and heard and saw it all. Startled out
of hie customary coldness of manner,
be eat bolt upright and eakad:
“Wan, madam, do you want to run
this office?’*
"No,” she replied, “but 1 want you
to run it more courteously while 1 am
in herti.”
Ho stared hard at her for a minute,
then, with a laugh, took bis hat off
and hia pip# out of his mouth—his feet
had already bean brought down to the
floor lead. Mrs. Clarke thanked him
end asked him what it was be wanted
with her.
He wanted the story; ha couldn’t got
it, be was tMd.
“But, my dear madam,” be pid,
“we want it, I tell you; we went all
we can get on that eubiect.”
“I am sorry, Mr. Goddard,” was her
answer, "but I have already sold the
story to the World ”
And the next morning the World
carried the story.
Later. Mrs. Clerks waa asked by
Mr. Goddard in person If she would
act aa the general Southern corres
pondent for him, aad if the would also
submit anything aba might write to
him. Sha accepted the latter part of
the. proposition only, and afterward
the American carried aet a little at
her clever output.
And If you think u little thing like
that Is easy to “put over” in New
York—-try tt. Thu rust majority who
do try something like It never get any
farther than the office boy. It it ee*y
enough to mh Into the ottos of the
average Southern newepeper aad

probably couldn’t gut within Vmg
