Newspapers

IT
HAS
LONG
BEEN
the
law
that
an
author
or
I
publisher
hears
full
liability
for
what
he
writes
or
publishes,
regardless
of
his
intentions
or
his
innocence.
This
is
only
another
way
of
saying
what
Chief
Justice
Mansfield
said
in
England
150
years
ago
in
much
better
language,
that
"Whatever
1
a
man
publishes,
he
publishes
at
his
peril."
The
result
has
been
that
just
as
long
as
there
have
been
newspapers,
published
there
have
been
libel
suits
brought;
and.
all
that
has
changed
is
the
increasing
number
and
complexity
of
the
actions
launched
and
the
claims
made.
The
risk
of
libel
actions
is
the
nsK
mat
every
puoiisner
must
assume,
it
is
no
more
possible
to
operate
transportation
in
these
days
of
heavy
traffic
without
expecting
to
defend
many
negligence
actions
than
it
is
possible
to
publish
a
newspaper
without
offending,
if
not
damaging,
"fnany
people.
Indeed,
the.pnly
surprising
feature
is
that
more
libel
suits
are
npt
launched,
when
one
thinksj)f
the
hundreds
o'f
assertions
of
fact
and
expressions
of
opinion
contained
in
every
edition
of
a
newspaier.
Human
frailty
beinj&ivhat
it
is.
mis
takes

inevitable
and;
GOOD
OLD
TIMES!
WHO
CAN
HAVE
ANY
PATIENCE
with
the
expression
"the
good
old
times?"
Try
and
anal-::
yze
them.
Heaven
knows,
there
is
trouble
.,;
enough
today,
but
what
man
would,
jf
he
could,
;
turn
back
the
clock
?
There
is
widened
knowledge,
if
widened
obligations
and
responsibilities.
But
welcome
them?
Take
Labor,
for
example
!
So
far
as
that
goes,
everybody
works
for
a
Jiving.
There
is
no
comparison
between
the
position
of
the
average
individual
today
and
what
it
was
only
a
few
generations
ago.

TRIBUTE
TO
DAN
SC1IEKK
Editor,
Dally
News:
I
was
interested
to
read
in
your
paper
on
Saturday
alxmt
the
kindly
nelghtoorliness
in
the
pioneer
days
pf
our
good
old
friend,
Daniel
Scherk,
now
deceased.
I
was
the
man
who
Mr.
Scherk
invited
to
take
water
from
his
house
instead
of
trudging
down
the
pipe
line
with
my
palls.
That
was
a
good
many
years
ago
now
but
I
still
well
remember
Mr.
Scherk
coming
to
my
house,
which
was
without
water,
inquiring
my
name
and
telling
me
he
was
a
neighbor
and
I
was
welcome
to
go
to
nis
house
and
get
water.
I
went
to
their
house
but
nobody
was
home
so
I
did
not
go
in.
On
my
way
home
from
the
pljre
line
I
met
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Scherk
and
they
told
me
to
go
right
in
and
help
myself
to
water
whether
there
was
anyope
home
or
not.
Years
later
when
I
was
in
hoapltal
for
four
months
following
a
strcke,
he
never
missed
a
single
Sunday
In
coming
to
see
me.
Always,
kind
and
pleasant
in
his
doings,
Mr.
jScherk
will
long,
be
fondly
remembered
by
his
many
old
friends.

MUSIC
IN
CITY
Editor,
Daily
News:
!
The
value
cf
music
in
the
life
of
the
human
race
Is
of
such
prime
importance,
I
feel
that
every
encouragement
should
bo
given
to
these
musicians
who
give
their
time
willingly
to
fill
that
classification
which
has
been,
conspicuous
in
the
past
by
Its
absence.
I
refer
to
our
band
and
orchestra,
each
of
which
gave
delightful
concerts
last
spring
whlth
were
enjoyed
by
those
who
attended.
Might
I,
therefore,
suggest
that
the
various
service
clubs
give
a
generous
donation
to
these
musical
organizations
sq
they
can
acquire
a
library,
or
shall
I
say
variety
of
music
and
new
instruments
when
found
necessary.
You
will
remember
the
plea3
ure
we
derived
by
the
playing
of
our
boys'
band.
The
boys
were
very
enthusiatslc.
Because
of
Inertia
on
the
part
of
one
service
organization,
which
obligated
Itself
to
foster,
encourage
and
supervise
their
woTk
and
actions
it
deteriorated
and
passed
into
oblivion.
To
prevent,
a
recurrence
of
this,
situation,
I
would
suggest
that
the
city
should
give
the
band
$100
for
service
already
rendered
and
to
help
out
in
the
future
(I
have
been
Informed
that
one
of
our
aldermen
suggested
$5,
don
blush
Mr.
Editor,
I
am
struggling
with
great
difficulty
not
to).
Also
I
am
certain
if
you
would
editorially
point
out
the
value
of
music
to
any
city
It
would
be
of
great
value
and
might
I
solicit
the
moral
and
financial
support
cf
all
citizens,
by
attending
any
concerts
given.
I
will
finish
this
rambling
comnosition
by
giving
an
extract
from
an
author
who
lived
in
the
naughty
nineties.
"Music,
once
admitted
to
the
soul,
beepmes
a
spirit
that
never
dies.
Tt

through
the
halls
and'galleries

and

when
it
first
displaced
the
wavelets
of
the
air.
now
-as
then
these
rhantoms
c
pound
float
back
upon
our
fancies."
Thanking
you
in
anticipation.

ernment
to
put
this
boy
In
a
proper
Institution
where
he
can
have
good
care
and
treatments
and
a
chance
to
live
happily.
Dont
forget
It
could
be
your

or

Just

We

prices
down
that
they
would
get
an
increase
in
real
wages
instead
of
bigger
pay
envelopes
that
were
phony
because
they
wouldn't
buy
as
much.
"It
made
sense
to
me
then,
when
I
told
you
about
it.
It
seemed
intelligent
labor
leadership.
"Now
it's
midsummer,
and
Canadian
labor
has
stayed
pretty
well
on
the
job,
and
things
are
more
abundant,
and
most
prices
are
coming
down.
I
know
there
are
some
going
up
too,
when
the
government
controls
and
subsidies
are
taken
away.
That
enables
lower
taxes.
And
you
can
see
every
day,
in
the
ads,
how
prices
are
coming
down
because
supplies
are
more
abundant.
"Yet
I
see
signs
that
some
labor
leaders
had
better
think
back
to
what
that
auto
workers'
union
leader
told
them
at
New
Year's.
It's
still
worth
thinking
about."
