A country newsnaner, so the
editor of the Herald believes,
Bhould, in order to establish i
valid claim for existence, be ;
fair and honest medium of ex
presaion for the people of its com

moving picture in type, week by

Bel) ving this to be the prov
ince of a country paper the edi
tor of the Herald welcomes arti
cled for publication from its read
ers on any subject of interest to
the community and he is espe
cially anxious to receive newslet
ters from all parts of the county
recounting briefly the comings
and coinirs. the work and the
play, the joys and the sorrows of
the neighborhood. In this con
nection, however, the Herald
wishes to suggest to contributors
that space in the ordinary coun
try newspaper is limited. The
Herald contains only 21 columns
each week and a large portion of
that must be sold to advertisers,
which is the chief source of in
come for all newspapers. Ordi
narially we have nine or ten col
umns left into which must be
erowded the news, correspond.
enoe, editorial etc. The need for
brevity is therefore obvious and
correspondents are requested to
cultivate that quality - which has
been well described as being
"the soul of w it." A thotignt
well expressed in a few words is
stronger, more forceful, will hit
the target better than if diluted
with many words. In eyory
newspaper ollice manv meritori
ous articles go to trie waste bas
ket because they are too long and
the editor has not the time to re
write and shorten them. If you
have something to say that you
think the public should know
write it to the Herald; write of
ten but briefly. Noil it down.

trying to drive the sheep off the
road to make room for the car to
pass when tho driver seemed to
lose control of the car and Arthur
