REGARDLESS OF THE FACT that newspaper pub lishers everywhere persistently and consistently jwage battle against the hordes of publicity and free - -space seekers, the mails continue to be flooded with a heterogeneous mass of propaganda covering every con ceivable subject and project that may be thought of , and 'the accomplishments and aspirations of innumerable in idividuals, groups of individuals, companies, tforpora .tions, and organizations. v f- Even the goverament of the United States, through . jits various departmental and bureau chiefs, has suc ..curnjedjoji, cotantlXen-. deavrji'Stofo1st ' upp'n lhcrj)resuniably; uhsuspccfiri4nd 'Untviore3" publishers' and editors' a "conglomeration of 'stories "purporting to- giye ''.information of a .desn-able character but in reality but thinly veiling propbganda advocating, the advancement or adoption . of some pet "scheme particularly desirable from the viewpoint of ihe , official in the mind of whom it originated.

V;. Another envelope contained an offer of hairpins in .exchange for advertising; another two tickets to a one- Hng circus and a column-length story. In fact, there was ;an even dozen envelopes received in thi3 morning's mail that contained nothing but pure advertising matter thin ly disguised as news.. And then laymen wonder why editors become gray-haired and stoop-shouldered, wear (glasses, and lose their sense of humor. rri-i But the publicity seekers who use the mails for Hhe furtherance of their plans and schemes nd the se curing 01 tree advertising are not the only ones with' 'whom the newspaper publisher has to contend. Far from it. Every city, town, village, and hamlet offers a place ' of refuge for members of the ever-glowing clan of "pub , Usher workers.". ; . ' - ? Churches, societies, organizations, even individuals,--look upon the newspaper -publisher as legitimate prey ' for the exercise of their ingenuity in securing space for ysidvertising entertainments, suppers, and other affairs , of a like.nature without in return offering commensur ate compensation for the fpace desired or the labor in , volved in preparing for - publication the material sub ; . mitted. ' " ' -' ' " i J. Publishers , everywhere' have experiences' ' of this 'character each day of their lives. r If they are possessed "of the courage of their convictions they firmly but kind ly explain the difference between news and advertising, and demand payment for publication. If they are of the 'class who depend for their existence upon "support", the t accept the proffered so-called news with outward smile but inward disgust-disgust at their own spineless inade quacy and the unlimited "nerve" of the one who suavely ' denudes them of their manhood and self-respect. , i Newspapers have but two ways of, deriving that .which must be forthcoming if they are to continue to .function one is the sale of the copies of the newspaper iiund the other is the sale of space, for advertising nurno- o.M njioiv .and within the pages of that newspaper.

The standings were: General university average :1.6(f percent, ' Women: 1.96. . ' Jlen: i.B0. Professor Alva 0.
