Unfavorable Publicity?
A casual remark by a member of the State
Education department last week about the effects
of publicity on an unfortunate situation has led us
lo do some serious thinking. Mel Olson, consultant
in school administration for the state education
department, voiced the opinion that much of the
trouble and dissension in the Inman school ruckus
could perhaps lx* blamed on "unfavorable publicity".
We can never believe that publicity on a situ
ation such as exists at Inman i sa factor in causing
it, nor can we believe that the reixirting of any act
can increase or diminish the original seriousness
of the act, hut that it can act as a guide and caution
to those who would become involved in the future.

Sold His Honor
It was a remark overheard in a streetcar, but
it reminded one that there are honorable men in
the world. A young man said: "I am very particular
about paying my fare. I look a ticket home once
when I was a Very small boy, and showed it to my
father, saying the conductor had not taken it, and
that I was that much ahead. My father looked at
me and said that I had sold my honor for a nickel.
That put a new face on it I always think of what
he said when I am tempted to repeat such an of
fense. Uplift, Vocational Printing class of Stonewall

Thought of the Month
Speaking out on an issue of importance to your
firm is sometimes dangerous, always difficult. Si
lence on an issue may not be golden it may be
just plain yellow.
BEVERLY, MASS., EVENING TIMES: "Swed
en appears determined to have its cake and eat
it, too . . . Welfare spending is up 9 per cent from
last year, but private business and industry are
escaping the increased burden. The consumer is
largely financing the new social services through
a lusty sales tax increase. In effect, Sweden is
heading away from socialism and toward free en
terprise. It has come to realize that welfare schemes
like the ones dear to Swedish hearts cannot exist
without a base of prosperous private industry.”
Take Another Job? Not Me!
An aroma of fascination surrounds a newspaper
making many persons say they'd like to own one.
It is a fascination which dings to everyone except
newspaper people. They have no illusions. Now to
own a newspaper, here is what you'll have to do
in one normal day:
Explain to Mrs. Smyth why Aunt Sara's 85th
birthday party was not on the front page .
Explain to an advertiser why it is impossible
to get him on page three.
Explain to an exsubscriber why you had to cut
off his unpaid subscription after you had sent him
four notices.
Explain deadlines 100 times a day and why you
have to have them.
Explain why there may he some trivia in the
first run, yet important news was left out of the
last run.
Soothe a lady who called her party in too late.
Explain v'hy some weeks you've got news run
ning out of your ears and other weeks the paper
reads like a report on Amalgamated Steel.
Apologize to an advertiser for an error in his
ad and smile sweetly while he tells you what an
idiot you are.
uecipner »cni>uiing uiai cuimrs wimcu
pads, paper napkins, a comer of junior's arithmetic
lesson or on the back of a letter from Cousin Frank.
Pet a balky Linotype that is as nervous as a
dish of jello and puts you further behind when you're
already behind.
Explain to a customer arriving late with copy
that if you get his stuff in, you’ll hav eto leave
somebody else out and then explain to the one you
left out.
Apologize for spelling the name of a fellow
Arong. Of course it doesn't help when you graduate
from high sch<x>l with the guy and he hasn’t been
able to spell your name right either, and besides he
has called you Charley for twenty years while every
one else calls you by your correct name, Bill.
The last run made, the papers on the news
stand and in the mail, you'll feel a sense of relief
for about five minutes. Then you start explaining
why you did this or didn’t do that and it starts all
over again.
TAKE ANOTHER JOB, not me. In spite of all
this I STILL LOVE IT.—Remain Brandt's "Pause

It happened 100 YEARS ago
The oldest incorporated trade association In the country,
the United States Brewers Association, was organized in
1862 ... the same year that...
NEBRASKANS were asked to contribute $19,312 In “war
taxes" to the Federal Government The people of this terri
tory claimed the sum was far beyond their abilities to pay.
So Congress released Nebraska from the obliga
tion—and instead failed to appropriate $20,000
for the territorial legislative session of 1862-63.
Nowadays, the brewing industry in Nebraska
contributes more than $10,000,000 annually in
taxes, or 500 times more than the “war tax” of
100 years ago. This money helps support our
schools, highways and parks.
TODAY in its centennial year, the United States
Brewers Association still works constantly to
assure maintenance of high standards of quality
and propriety wherever beer and ale are served.
