CONSTRUCTIVE JOURNALISM
“Many of the ills of this crisis
in which the American people are
suffering can be traced to the
pandering of a certain type of
newspaper. They fed to a genera
tion—dizzy from too much money
—the reeking froth of cheap sen
sationalism, sex debauches, love
nest literature, sneering cynicism,
and cocktail morals. They degraded
the ideas and the ideals of a gen
eration which was facing the task
of moulding a new era of civiliza
tion out of the wreck and ruin of
the World War.
"The kind of journalism that has
degraded our feelings and our
ideals has to be plowed under; and
it is for the country papers of
America to accomplish this dras
tic task. They were not to blame
for the muck, but they must shov
el it away.
“The best that there is in Amer- I
lean life has come from country- I
bred boys who went to the city, j
The country newspaper reflects the i
courage and the solid worth of!
these country-bred families.
“It is the country newspaper
upon whom is thrust the duty of
cleaning house. You have the con
fidence and the faith of your com
munities.” —H. Chandler,
publisher of the Los Angeles Times,
in an address before the National
Editorial Association.
The Gateway preceded M r.
Chandler with this analysis of con
ditions several months ago.
TO A SKEPTIC
King Tantalus was committed
by the gods to eternal pun
ishment for his skepticism.
Up to his neck in water the
stream receded when he
would drink. Tempted with
fruit the laden bough would
pass when he reached for it.
This cross old King gave
posterity a new word, but he
also “tantalized” us with
truth.
For the chronic skeptic,
who thru darkened glasses
sees only the night, is not ex
pected to see the faint light
of breaking dawn and a new
day.
A husband has only one wife, but
the iceman has his pick.

LITTLE THEATRE CLUB
BEGINS ACTIVE SEASON
i _
Last evening, in the auditorium
of the Seward High school, a rep
resentative gathering of members
! of the Little Theatre Club attend
ed the first meeting of the season.
The meeting was called to order
by President E. L. Sweek shortly
j after 8 o’clock, after which minutes
j of the last meeting and the roll
j call were read. One of the inter
! esting facts brought up was a
statement by Mrs. McMullen, di
rector of the first three-act play
yet to be presented this year, that
the play had been chosen as well
as part of the cast, and it was ex
pected that practices would begin
next week.
Several new members were also
elected, and the date set for the
next meeting, which will occur on
the second Thursday in October.
Several minor affairs were also at
tended to, after which a motion
was made, moved and seconded,
that the meeting adjourn.
Flowers made to order for all
occasions. Sylvia’s.
