i Have you noticed the delightful
shortage of busybodics with the pro
gress of the age? What has become of
them and why have they stopped be
ing busy about other people's busi
ness? Their meddlesomeness was probably
due to lack, of Interests of their own.
Life has now become more complicat
ed, more hustling, and broader, and
tho narrow little souls who had noth
ing to do but eop out front behind
their curtains at Life as It went by,
sit up and take notice. Kmpty-handed
and empty-minded Women have been
set busy In Industry, In welfare work.
In club life. In politics and havo less
tlmo to chatter and to criticise.
Resides, wo have more entertain
ment to take up the slack In our In
terest These busy bodies can them
selves drive a car across country, ptay
golf at the country club or revel In
the plots of the movies.
Two things make the busybodies
bun less: they have less spare time
to devote to It. and, living In a glass
house, they ship throwing stones.
Who aays the strenuous age Is all deplorable?

with bitter words and roast him for his trick, with language that

weatherbeaten head and tweak his ears and noseT Such ven

to relieve the ills he may endure, I'll cheer him when he's prone
to grieve, when sick- I'll bring a cure. With wary hands hell

Nearly everyone who, spends two
cents to buy a newspaier, and every
one who doesn't, kno; how to run
that newgaper better than the editor.
If you do not believe it. ask. One may
not be able to write grammatically or
to spell correctly, or to think clearly,
or knoTr the difference between uews.
advertising and editorial, and be icnor
ant of everything about the produc
tion f a newspaier, but If there is
one subject each is cock-sure upon, It
is his or her ability to produce a bet
ter newspaper than any existent.
To give its readers a chance t
listen to the words of wisdom that like
rain continuously patter upon every
newspaper in the form of complaints,
advice, criticism and growls, the Capi
tal Journal Saturday published its
' brick-bat" pagewhich it is hoped
proved as entertaining to readers as
to editors. All the "brick-bats" re
ceived, except some anonymous ones
whose scurrility would bar the paper
from the malls, were printed.
If a newspaper heeded the bedlam
of advice and criticism that constantly
besprinkles it, and operated according
ly, its history would be similar to the
story of the OLD MAN, his Son and
the ASS related in Aesop' fables:
An Old Man and his Little Boy were
once driving an Ass before them to
the next Market-town, where It was
to be sold. "Have you no more wit,"
said a passer-by, "than for you and
your Son to trudge on foot and let
your Ass go light?" So the Man put
his Boy on the Ass, and they went on
again. "You lazy young rascal," said
the next person they met; "are you
not ashamed to ride and let your poor
Father go on foot?" The Man lifted
off the Boy and got up himself. Two
women passed soon after, and one
said to the other, "Look at that selfish
old fellow, riding on, while his little
Son follows after on foot" The Old
Man thereupon took up the Boy be
hind him. The next traveler they met
asked the Old Man whether or not the
Ass was his own. Being answered
that it was; "No one would think so,"
said he, "from the way in which yoa
use It. Why, you are better able to
carry the poor animal than he is to
carry both of you." So the Old Man
tied the Ass" legs to a long pole, and
he and his Son shouldered the pole
and staggered along under the weight.
In that fashion they entered the town,
and their appearance caused so much
laughter that the Old Man, mad with
vexation at the result of his endeavors
to give satisfaction to everybody,
threw the Ass into the river, and seiz
ing his Son by the arm went his way
home again.
"Please all and you will please
none."
There Is not room for two policyless
newspapers in Salem, run by the con
tributing public, vnlorously exploiting
the vegetable kingdom, so despite the
wisdom so freely showered, the Cap
ital Journal will continue to formulate
its own policy, fearlessly print the
news and print it first, and interpret
it editorially in clear-cut and forceful
fashion for the right as it is given it
to see the right- And those who think
that they do not get two cents worth
in the Capital Journal will continue
borrowing their neighbors paper to
learn what Is going on and what it is
all about. Salem Capital Journal.
