From time to time one hears so
much about the colossal circulations
of the great metropolitan daily news
papers, about the gigantic presses
that turn out their huge bundles of
printed paper, and other astonishing
facts and almost unbelievable figures
concerning these gigantic institutions
that one is overawed. At such times
a person is quite likely to depreciate
the country or small-town newspaper.
In some communities it is common
to hear persons speak sneeringly of
the local paper. Then something
coiuos up, perhaps the election of a
governor of the state of California,
who made his victorious campaign
through the country press, which goes
to show that in this day of enormous
metropolitan -newspapers the small
town papers and tne country press
were never so strong, never so in
fluential. Recently the Industrial News Bu
reau of San Francisco, a publication
that circulates among the whole
salers and larger business men of the
bay region, aid the following tri
bute to the small newspapers:
"The story of the newspaper pub-

of this class of newspapers is close

of such newspapers is owing chiefly
o the outrage and peristance of the
proprietor and to the support of tin
community. The loyalty of the edi
tor and of the paper to the commun
ity is an asset to any town and de
serves its friendship. There is a
strong bond of influence between
country weekly and mailer city dail
ies and their readers that can never
exist in the relation of the metropoli
tan daily and the public." Enter

Harsh words uttered to one's wife,
motlier-in-law, janitor, barber or next
door neighbor can never be unsaid.
Once the tongue slips the die is cast,
the Rubicon crossed, and all that sort
of thing. But not so with the written
word of abuse. You may take your
pen in hand and draw up a rough in
dictment of any one who displeases
you, put it in an envelope, address
the envelope and drop it in a mail
box. Here is where the government
steps in and permits you to eat your
cake ami luive it too. If on your way
homeward from the box your knees
knock together so much as to inter
fere with your progress you can still
get your letter back, li n.-wr n.
late with a post otlice department that
desires to discourage domestic homi
cide, says the New York Son. All
you have to do is to go io your local
postmaster and ask to have the letter
withdrawn from the mails; he will
comply with your requests, provided
you yive an accurate description of
the letter and furnish an example of
your handwriting. Postmasters may
even telegraph to the railway mail
cieiK ami asu liim to get a certain
letter out of a mail pouch after it has
left the city on its way to its desti
nation. Who says we ain't got a pa
ternal government?

The geological 'expedition which has
been sent from the University of Cali
fornia to explore thoroughly, if possi
ble, the rugged mazes of the Snake
river canyon, marks one more attempt
to wrest from this region some of its
mysteries. This canyon is deeper than
the (Jrtmd canyon of the Colorado and
is practically inaccessible to any but
the very best equipped climbers, as
there are no trails and the river itself
cannot be navigated. Copper, silver,
and gold are among the prospects held
out to anyone who can manage to
overcome the difficulties of the cli
mate and other obstructions.
A horse ambles along Pennsylvania
railroad tracK.; i,e;,r Uiven-nne Sta
tion, N. Y. Train approaches. Engi
neer toots his whistle. Horse starts
running, faster and taster. It gallops
three miles, locomotive at its heels,
before Its brain conceives the idea or
leaping off the tracks. Some will see
in this the great value of man's power
or reasoning and decision, which this
horse larked. But In many tilings,
most or us rarely have sens eno-igli
to get off the tracks. Man's avarice
induces him to tlirt with danger.
Knowing that a certain course is fatal,
man still remains on the tracks, play
ing the stock market, overeating,
pat ronizing bootleggers.
Marriage the home is the greate: r
career a woman can follow. So says
Miss Charl O. Williams, president of
the National Education sisso iation
and vice chairman of the Democratic
National committee. Alone, a woman
can have only one career. Married,
she has a career to her credit for each
of her children. Men and women
never get as much satisfaction out
of their own successes as they get
out of the successes of their children.
With parenthood, ambition usually is
transferred from self to offspring.
