An elaborate discription of a ban- quet is not of very much Interest to peope unless the person for whom it is gtven is known to practically all the readers, and then it must be skillfully written to be of interest be- cause banquets are very comm‘i- place things, The same Is true af funerals and reception, quarterly con- ferences, etc. ‘These are all occasions upon whic) some of us are called upon to attend every day, and if ach of us insistel that the funerals, receptions, visits of friends or relatives or any other afl fair that cotcerns un individually more thon anyone elso be given 9 lengthy writeup in the Christian de corder {t would require a weekly edition of 50 pages, and then that edition wouil rerder very little {1 tersting reading matter to the people at large The average Negro paper devotes its pages entirely too much to local iam, That is to say, it is sarely au interesting paper to read for anyone who does not live ip the vicinity where St Ja published or has been a former resident of that place; for t» much of its news comprises lengthy articles on the deaths, marriages or Feceptions of ita local residents, Su, dear readers, let us appeal tn you to not feel offented if your article is net printed verbatim, And when you get ready to send In an article ston and think:. “Would J be interest- e@ jn this from sonde other part of the country?" .

Osage City Free Press, First of all give him the NEWS. He wants it, Give it to him though sometimes it does net get into the paper, He basn't time always to tell you why some pieces of news are not used; but ten to one he has @ perfectly gocd and impersonal rea- son, Give him the newa even ‘tho you may not be especially interest. ed tn it. Some folks never think to give the editor newa except when they are concerned im it one way or another, Second, don't give bim a plece of tews and tell him you want it printed Just an it is written, There is a right and a wrong way to do even such a simple thing as writing an ar Ucle for a country paper, One od: itor had to leave town because he printed every piece of news just as it was handed jn—epelling, punctu- ation and all—printed it with the mame of the person who gave it in, ‘Third, dog't try to play @ joke thru the paper opless you explain it to the editor,” A tbing In cold type looks a lot different and sounds differ ent from a {hing repeated by word of mouth, when the voice, a facial ex- preasion an& a gesture, perhaps, helps to chow its meaning. Fourth, don’¢ worry for fear the editor {s making too much money; you, should went him to be prosper ous, He can and will give you a better paper,{ He will be less like- ly to have to compromise with his cosecience over certain kinds of ad- vertisirg, And anyhow, he can’t aks « b’g fortune out of bis paper » he will be lucky. jf he keeps going: Fifth, be ready’ to tell Your oditer when something in the paper pleases you. Once in a while you tel} your jprescker he has a good sermon, 90 Jtetl the editor something about bis paper. ‘# Sixth, gat your “copy' to him early, Take dt to bins for the next week the ‘day after the previous publicatios, if Jyou can. It takes time to set type and make & paper. Did you ever wonder what the editor did all the jtima between publication dayst You would know if you were publishing & newspeper yourself, Lastly, go in some day when the paper is being printed, Go in sev- eral times during the day, and you will have more of a realisation of what @ job it is to make a weetly paper.
