MILLER SPEAKS
BEFORE EDITORS
Secretary of United Typhothetae of
America Makes Opening Address
To Press Association.
EMPHASIZESEFFICIENCY
Advocates Better Methods of Newsoa
per Accounting Recommends
Typhothetae System.
K. T. Miller of Chicago, general
secretary of the United Typhothetae of
America, spoke on newspaper man
agement and control, Thursday after
noon, before the Nebraska Tress As
sociation. Mr. Miller especially emphasized the
necessity for organization and effi
ciency in the newspaper plant. "Effi
ciency in accounting is fundamental
to prosperity," he said. He stated
that lie believed that government in
sistence on clearer methods of ac
counting would become more and
more emphatic because of the income
tax laws. He offered as a solution
of the difficulty" growing out of this
situation the adoption of the system
used by numbers of Typhothetae.
Influence is Important.
Among the important commodities
which a paper has for sale Is its in
fluence. This does not mean that the
paper may be buught to take an un
worthy stand, but that its personality
is a saleable asset, that the service it
gives helps or hinders its subscription
and advertising fund3.
Mr. Miller also stated that it was
r.p to the editor who would be suc
cessful to sell his patrons the kind of
advertising that would move their
goods. As a means of doing this he
suggested the correlation of job print
ing and newspaper advertising in or
ganized campaigns.
Summary of Work.
Mr. Miller began his talk with a
brief summary of the work the Typho
thetae has accomplished in the past.
It has been instrumental in placing
a cost-finding-system in the hands of
printers and publishers, in carrying on
an educational campaign and publish
ing a series of technical text books.
It has. for its aim, the organization of
printers and publishers for the better
ment of the industry.
In closing Mr. Miller read a brief
paragraph in which the belief was ex
piessed that the editor will si and side
by side with the teacher in the com
ing educational campaign which is
necessary to avert serious industrial
trouble.

women who feel that their profeshion
is a bond of friendship. Many of

braska editor more than to recall
anecdotes about another editor. A
Daily Nebraskan reported interviewed
a number of persons nttemiing tin.
meeting Thursday to get a glimpse
of some of the personalities in Ne
braska journalism. The following is
the result:
A. II. Wood, of Gering, is Editor of
the Gering Courier. His friends say
that the waitress at the Lincoln Hotel
found reason to call him down during
his noon-day meal Thursday. The
complaint was that he was making
too much noise with his soup and that
after he had finished his soup he at
tempted to eat the peas with his
knife.
Edgar R. Howard is a former lieu
renant governor of Nebraska, former
candidate for governor and former cm.
didate for United States senator. He
wears his hair long in the back. The
report that he has ordered a wig was
emphatically denied when a bald
headed friend accosted him. He re
minded his friends that he still hr:d
lacks that nature gave him and that
hair would not grow op wood.
"Bill" Maupin is editor of the Ger
ing Midwest. He came down this year
wreathed In smiles. He is now a grand
father. The members of the Associa

have him come down and not report a
new daughter.

the Keith County News at Ogallala.
He has been in business since July
1!U6.
