ONE DOZEN POINTERS
N FOB CORRESPONDENTS
f ? County correspondents gfet . jill too
-little attention and therefore we
think the following dozen pointers,
sent out by the AskoV (Minn.) Amer
ican, by its publishers , Petersen
Brothers, are well worth ' broadcast
ing by other editors. The rides were
as follows: ,'JVC %
I !>. *v"
1. Above all get the news.
2. Do not express your own opin
ion "about news events ; let the reader
form, his own opinion about the mat
ter on which vou write. . . . .
- ? /
3. Do not depend on rumor; in
vestigate carefully all important
news, for your own satisfaction and
accuracy. TV'/
4. Above all be accuratc in your|
statements. .
5. Write your letter regularly,
even though there ( are oAly, a few
notes. It is in this wqy , that .the
people become accustomed to seeing
your letters in the paper and . look
?for it. s- ? ?>'?*
6. Who ? Where ? When J , What ?<
Why? How? Answer these, questions
in all your news stories and yop are
sure to make your letters to J the
piapcrs interesting. y
7. Speak a good word for every*|
one in your community.
8. Give accurate reports of all
public meetings and quote words of ]
speaker accurately.
"Never use your, paper as a
means to {jet even with any one. lt.|
will probably injure you and cannot
fail to injure the paper.
10.: Speak a good word for tl?e|
paper you represent and try to get
people interested in it. ,,
11. Make a survey of your territory
and find out what kind of nev.v
people are interested in.
12. Do not minimize your 'respon
sibility with regard to the paper you
represent. As an associate editor you i
are charged with covering your par- j
ticular field.' ^ ' *? .

$13,200,000. Arkansas with 767 miles

Almost exactly one- third of the

336 miles, is ofj tiard-surfaee types. J
We led the southern states in the
miles of har<r-si*rfaced roffds com
