Only with these supplies on hand can the miracles of modern sur- ger ‘y gain success. Appreciation of blood bank vital Tt is not too long ago that the need for blood in the Prince Rupert General Hospital was drastically pronounced. Three young women of our commun- ity, victims of a tragic automobile acci- dent, lay dangerously ill. The need, in at least one ease, could be stated simp- ly... blood. The donors were f ound and. a life was saved. Everyone appreciates the value of abank account. Now we face the time when we must all appreciate the great- er value of an adequate blood bank ac- | count. It’s a simple matter to become a donor under the conditions of steril- ity that exist today. You'll be well. cared for and ,indeed, have the great satisfaction of the feeling that the blood you gave may save ap recious | life. - Newspaper business greatest in the world any editors and publishers across Canada have been becoming in- creasingly alarmed in recent years at the difficulty in obtaining young peo- ple interested in entering the news- paper profession. qT hey seem to feelin recent years 1 siness of producing a newspaper as | deglamorized and any youngsters think of the news- oat “paper business only as an underpaid vocation compared to most others. «In a recent speech, Pulitzer-prize winning Leland Stowe, professor of journalism at the University of Michi- gan, had a few things to say that bear repeating to potential staff material. : Speaking to high school journalism students, Mr. Stowe listed 10 reasons why he thought the newspaper busi- ness was the greatest in the world. They are: -. 1) “Because the world i is your oys- ter as a reporter and you get just as much meat out of itas you merit. The reporter is involved with more aspects Of. life, people, and human activities than any other profession ] know. 2) “Because you are able to help others to learn the things you are learning. yourself. You are in every way an information dispenser per- forming an important social function for the public benefit. “« 83) “Reporting opens almost any door, and you can see almost any per- son as long as you have simple . tact and good manners. 4) “Reporting has the element. of unexpectedness and challenge to a de- . gree no other profession has. 5) “Because you are able to make an extraordinary variety of friends. You have to win people’s confidence and to do this ‘you have to show some interest so they in turn will show in- terest in you and giye you the infor- mation you need. mS 6) “Reporting has a wide choice of, specialization as many new fields of. reporting have opened up in science. | 7) “There are no ruts in reporting - . except for those who let themselves stay in them. Reporting is 2 stepping- stone to an amazing number of co-re- lated jobs such as editing, playwriting and fiction writing. 8) “Asa reporter, you are concern-~! : ed with man’s most exciting quest—the quest for truth. Truth is always some- ‘pbody’s enemy and they don’t want it | known. With tenacity you will be a good reporter. 9) “Reporters belong to the warm- est and most stimulating profession on earth. You belong to a club when you deserve respect of the profession. 10) “Your work is a ceaseless ad- venture—in human relations, prob- lems, human drama, ‘ersonal experi- ence and discovery.” —The Canadian Weekly Editor.
