Anger, error and injustice ride Oft in company. They are the three horsemen of bigOtry. These things the editorial page ought always to have. But surely they are needed now more sorely than ever before. The need for a balanced budget, the necessity to Cut| government costs, the desirability for control of credit, the[ value to the people in general from fair regulation of busi-! ness,.â€"these are some of the points featured by other editors,} The Houston Press concludes its opinion with these words: ! "‘Toj many newspapers of toâ€"day are run like a storeâ€"offering their wares for sale, and being careful to do! nothing to offend their customers." The Houston Pressi recognizes that a newspaper is more than a business. 'I‘heje; are some people who would have a newspaper no more thalll a sort of sanctified purveyor of gossip, if their opinions are to be judged from their attitude. A newspaper of that| "store"" variety would be of little benefit to the commumtyv or the natfon, and eventually of no profit to itself. , The applicaticn of these opinions to the Canadian situaâ€" | tion will be apparent. Edward J. Meeman, editor of Theg Memphis, Tennessee Pressâ€"Scimitar, writes indeed as if he had | felt the keen edge of the ruthless Hepburn axe,. With omission of the two words, "in Washington," his paxaoxaphl to "Editor and Publisher," reads as follows:â€""Whatever adâ€"| ministration we have in Washington, there will continue to be large government activities. These are efficient only when positions are given on a basis of merit and competence, The finest service newspapers could perform, and the one of most unquestionable merit, would be to work unceasingly for the removal of patronage from the government service, | national, state and local. There is no field in which it nas! not been demonstrated that this is possible; wherever it hqs4 been done, as in the city government of Cincinnati, or the Tennessee Valley Authority, there has been high efficiency, ’ therefore let us make the merit principle general and applv! it everywhere." ‘ One brief article in the summary of the paramount 1ssues' facing newspapers and nations in 1935 is worth reproducing in full, It is by Lynn W. Landrum, in charge of the ediâ€"| torial page of The Dallas, Texas, Journal. It applies wiLh! full force to Canada, or to any other country. In answer; to the question, "What do you think should be the major‘ newspaper editorial objective for the coming year, locally| and nationally?" Mr. Landrum gives the following: | 1. Readability. An unreadable editcrial is stillborn. 'I‘hef breath of life is not in it. One such a year is one too mauy.: 2. Clarity. If the editorialist can‘t say what he means,, why should the reader waste time trying to guess? | 3. Dispassionate analysis of ballyhoo and buncombe.

It is worth noting that the newspaper editors all appear to be agreed on the fact that the problems Oof the state are their special probfin;. A consideration of the summary of the views of these United States editors will also impress most Canadians with the opinion that the questions confronting United States editors and the nation as a whole have a very emphatic application to Canada and Canadians, George B. Langan, editor of The Kansas City Star, thinks that the great need for 1935 is the interpreting in clear and incisive manner of the plans and purposes of the govâ€" ernment in the matter of supporting the nation through the balance of the depression and speeding up recovery. He emphasizes the necessity for preserving the freedom O1 the press. A continuance of the war on crime is considered a vital factor in any programme of good government. ‘The Kansas City Star editor further urges the use of the iron hand against perversive radicalism and its twin brother ruthless industrial domination. The editor of The Albany Evening News and Knickerâ€" bocker Press considers sound thinking by newspapers and people alike to be the great need of the day. Wallace Ferry, editor of The El Paso Heraldâ€"Post believes that an outstanding need of the day is the feeling of greater Canadaâ€"$2.00 Per Ye TIMMINS, ONTARIO Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Association:; Ontarioâ€" Quebe: Newspaper Aseociation; Class "A" Weekly Group OFFICE #â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"PHONESâ€"â€"â€"â€"â€"RESIDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thursday by: EO LAKE, Owner and Publisher ind ind w‘om'mmomwm #, 3 PARAMOUNT ISSUES s# se stt h DP P ME mmoooom“'MW at us becau the Norll it« Timmins, Ont., Thursday, Jan. 17th, 1935 | Eho Yorritgitne Aduanee â€" sentials. etting public sentiment back to sane views of economi¢s individuai; responsibility" should be the objective of the papers in the opinion of the editor of The Portiand publxc works as a tresses the need COGNSsIDER THE NORTH! the litor of Subscription Rates Te of The Cleveland Neéws, names unâ€" atest problem Oof the day.

No scientific explanation is olféred, ProIeSâ€" sors are inclined to scoff at it all, suggesting that it is only a publicity stunt. But the people of the district are reported as being alarmed and nervous. Of course, there is a simple explanation of the malter. Perhaps, Charlie Stone, of The Perth Expositor will give that explanation. Maybe the gullible guys cf the daily press tempted his patience too far, and he told the boys someâ€" thing that would keep them occupied for a time at least. Charlie could put so many .chills in a story like that that few ycoung newspapermen would hesitate to doubt his story. They would socner accept the tale than spend a ghostly evening in attempting to disprove it. Canada has had quite a number of those alleged ghostly visitations.

Mr. Racine About those Perth ghosts, hcwever! The daily newsâ€" papers found them, and left them where they were. Most of the newspapermen also leftâ€"but not where they were, by miles. And this is how the story goes! At the little farm home cf John Quinn on the shores Of Black Lake, about 16 miles from Perth, there have been ghosts popping. Inanimate objects have suddenly been imâ€" bued with life, according to the stories told with a straight face and a crooked vrice. Stones thrown by hands unseen have broken windows. Tea kettles refuse to stay on the stove, jumping down as often as placed on the heating apparatus. A mirror seems to drcp from the wall without anyone touching it. Pieces of firewood jumped out of the woodâ€"box under their cwn steam. Dishes cavorted around without reason or excuse. One man swore he saw three flatirons walk down stairs a step at a time. _A monkey wrench hanging on a nail on the wall spun round and round until everybody was dizzy.

"To be a good Canadian and a good Scout will always, I feel sure, be synonymous terms." The following address delivered some days ago at Ottawa by His Excellency the Governorâ€"General, the Earl of Bessborough, should be of general inâ€" terest. Not only does it touch upon the Boy Scout movement, but it goes deeper than that and takes up the whole attitude of Canada in regard to youth and the true progress of the country :â€" "I am now starting my fifth and last year in Canada as Governorâ€"General. "During every one of the past four years, I have travelled many thousands of miles throughout this wonderful Dominion.

From that experience, one impression stands out more vividly, perhaps, than all the others I have gatheredâ€"and that is that Canada, as a country, is vitally instinct with the spirit of youth. "By that, I do not mean that Canada is, historically, a young nation, as naâ€" tions go. I do not ‘mean, either, that Canada at the present moment offers greater professional opportunities to youth than do other countries. What I do mean is that Canada today seems to me preâ€"eminently conscious of the needs of youth, anxious to give youth a fair chance, proud of its own boys and girls, and determined to make the most of the fine raw material of citizenship which those splendid boys and girls provide; and this explains what I have also noticed everywhereâ€"that in Canâ€" ada, the elders seem to stay younger, to keep youth in their hearts longer than they do in most countries. There is, in fact, throughout this great counâ€" try, a deep seated sympathy with youth, a realization of the obligations of Age to Youth, which is one of Canâ€" ada‘s greatest national assets.

In my opinion, this organization which lays such stress on honour, on lovalty, on neighbourliness, and on "playing the game," is the one that is the finest and is best suited to Canada. Naturally, its emphasis on loyalty appeals to ine, for is not life made up of loyaltiesâ€"loyalty to one‘s friends; loyalty to those things that are beautiful and good; loyalty to one‘s country; loyalty to our King; and above all, and most important of all, lovalty to God. "Mr. Beatty, the president of the Scout organization in Canada,. is just as much in earnest about this matter as I am. With his coâ€"operation, an allâ€"Canadian Conference Oof â€" Scoul Provincial Presidents, and Provincia! Commissioners, met in Ottawa last September, and decided to accept my challenge.

Beer, he added, is rich in vitamin B and the antineurotic vitamin contained in yeast. "Lack of calcium in the blood often causes nervousness in babies and adults," Dr. Johnson said, and that, "American cheese is an excellent source of the needed mineral."
