Getting out a great newspaper is fascinating task, but it is also a difficult one. No other jol| that comes to mind is quite so taxing, ta hurried or demands greater pains. From the moment a newspaper is started, be it either daily or weekly, the work is carried on under pressure, a rate against time. Put yourself in an editor's position—could you do it?

Charges of alleged short weights were made by State inspectors Thurs day against the local Piggly Wiggly store and the case will be tried be fore Magistrate G. L. Hill next Tues day afternoon. In discussing the matter, W. F. Fairey, Jr., of Orange- burg t one of the owners of the Barn well store, said that, out of 300 pack ages ranging in weight from one to four pounds and containing different kinds of groceries, the inspectors had found a total shortage of 2% pounds in about 50 packages and that no al lowance was made for overweight in some of the other 250 packages. The outcome of the trial will be watched with interest. Could you decide in a judgment on the dozens of questions a news»<> paper man must face daily and get a majority of them correct? We won’t time you—but if you could do these few things and a thous and and one more difficult ones, you should be a newspaper editor. The point we wish to idake is, that one can produce a good newspaper only after continual diligent study and years of practical experience. You have heard dozens of persons re mark that they could turn out a news paper, and a good one, too, a bit bet ter, in fact, than the one they ate getting. That is not true, unless they have gone through the year 8 and study that a good newspaper demands of its makers. Were it not for the peculiar fascin ation associated with newspaper work, there would be no newspapeis, for there is no greater task master and money alone would be far too scant compensation.—Monroe Enquirer.

Over bU Countries Now Treat Colds Without “Dosing” Modern Vaporising Ointment Fast Replacing Old-Time Internal Remedies A generation ago. it was the cus tom to give large doses of internal medicines for colds and almost every human ailment. Then, a North Car olina pharmacist originated Vicks VapoRub, the modern method of treating colds without “dosing.” Today, the whole trend of medical practice is away from needless “dos ing." As more and more people adopted this modem external treatment, the fame of Vicks spread until to day it is the standby for colds— adults’ as well as children's—in over 60 countries. This ever-increasing demand is shown in the figures of the familiar Vick slogan. Made famous when Vicks reached “17 Million Jars Used Yearly,” and later raised to “21 Million,” these figures, too, have been outgrown, as there are now “Over 26 Million Jars Used Yearly” in the United States atone.
