In the opening sentence of an essav read before the Social Science Ass ciation. at Saratoza Sorinsrs. SeDt 6, 181, by Charles Dudley War uer, he said : "Although there are scattered throu the land many persons, I am s rry to say 1 unable to Dav for a newsnnncr. I hv- J never yet heard of anybody unable --to edit one." While ttns may seem to be a verj broad assertion, in the main, it i- J true. There is a general impressioi I among many readers of the newspa Pers that il is 'he easiest thing in thd world to edit a paper. A few days' I work soliciting advertisements to fil; f a few columns of the paper whic! of course, remain set up all the year . then an hour or two spent during the week selecting matter for the readin columns, some short extracts clipped from one of the leading jourmils oi the country, serve as editorials this i repeated; every week except the work for the advertising columns. which is looked after only once or twice a yearand the work of the editor is done This is the idea that many have of editing a oaper. But the editor who 3 well his place finds it quite dif- ism is truly a profession ; and that if Journalism may be improving in our country, but it is not doing what it ought in every way. One reason for this is because too little time and thought is given to the mat ter of . et- ting out an interesting paper Au- other reasou why the Dress is not. doing just what it ought in the wav v .
