IDEAS OF THi BOSTON GLOBE EDITOR The JiiiirnnllNlIc Tciiiperiiiiioiit ad the " .Noxf for X - N" Hurd Work nnd ( iuoil II on I tli the Secret of SUCCVKN. How to'succeed In lifeIs a very hard question toaaiwer. . I think that hard work has been the chief rearon for suc cess In the liven of most men ami women. Good looks , attractive manners , clrcuniHtcn- ccs , frlendi.1 each or all ma > help In the bat tle of life , but earnest , honest , hard uork tccurco moat of the rtaultw. There may be men a thing us luck In the \\orlcl , but I havoi noticed .bit as a rule the people who do the fighting , the \\orkerts uho are strug gling early anil late to get ahead and make progress , are tliceolio find \\lmt luck there \3. \ The man or woman who \\ala ! for lucU t ? como to him or her will bo aadly dlcap- poVitcd , The best .rulo for success In llfo that I have ever found Is to do a little more than la expected of you. j \\Uate\cr jour paltlon In llfo may be , whether In an olllce , factory , store or work- chop , under any and all circumstances , do n ll'.tlo more II an la expected of > ou , and you will nc\cr be o\erlooked , ba the es tablishment larso or email. It la 'the pco- pls who tegln about nozn to look at the clock and commence to feel afraid that they will not bo "washed up" and droned anil ready to rush through the door at the exact mtnutohen the clack atrlkrs or Kie bell rings who uiuully tall toln any buc- In my own case I owe my entrance Into Journalism wholly to the fact that I wan Industrious and willing to work. I naturally had that ambition , hence I do not etate It as a quality for which I am entitled to any great credit. I was employed as a boy In en office where I had > ery little to do , an ] cot very little for It , towlt. 11.50 a week. A echoolboy friend of mine \ * < ia at work lu a Itoston newspaper office , where he had to work through the day and four nights In the week until 10 or U o'clock. Per his tcrvlcra ho was receiving $3 per week. As be wca alwajJ groaning brcauae ho wca o\erworked , and I was complaining because I did not have enough to do , I proposed to him that wo exchange places. I Introduced him to the Arm for which I worked , and then went and applied for hli position , and ee- curcj it. I wat willing to work to get on , and ho was not. I worked long Lours then , and did for mooy yean afterward * . For Ml kloda ot euccct * on * bw to pay a price equal to the result. At ccie time , for a period of more than five years , I worked In my present office from 8:30 : a. m. till 11:30 : p. m. without a single vacation. Per haps ( do reader may get an Imprecision that I am pressing home this point about work a little too strongly , but It Is the basis ot substantially all ot the success which has bejn 'achieved by men and women In all lines of life and In all positions of power and Influence from the beginning ot the world , QUALITIES NEEDED. Ono of the roost successful men I have ever known won his position odd a large fortune becauee he possessed certain quali ties which would have attained success Ir. any profession or occpatlon. He posse usd Industry , ambition , ho was economical , he was honest and truthful , and he wss always just and helpful to others. To succeed In Journalism one needs about the same qualities that arc 'required In the other professions , or mcst any kind of busl- necs. . .Men who are born journalists , like those who are born physicians , or poets , or picachere , or mechanics , or great tradeia , find It much easier to succeed than men who have not great natural aptitude. Journalism ofieru thrco dlstnct careers , a literary , a business and a mectunlcal , 'Men ' can bo trained for cither of these divisions. The measure of success which can bo secured de pends .upon the ambition , the Industry and tlto fighting qualities of the Individual. There U no royal roaii to succew. It If hard to tell exactly what special lines of study ami Investigation are required for each of thcso divisions. Men who have natural qualities and special fasten will easily excel In that fc.- which they lire best fitted. The ables' i end meat successful men aad women will I work out thvlr salvation In their partlculat ! field. I might sum It all up by faying , as Hud- yard Kipling said the other Cay In reply tea a question by a young author oo to what he should do to succeed , "Keep on trying till jou either fall or succeed. " It may be , however , that when I wa * cskcd to write thin article on "How to Succeed as a JourrulliU" it was expected that I would give some practical ulntt > to that large- class of young AmerlcatiB whose ambition It Is to bccomo efficient writers for the dally prcaa , and eventually graduate to editorial pcwl- lions. That Is , to be sure , only one branch ot journalism , but no doubt It Is the one that Is mOU attractive to young men just starting out In life. To such young tncn I may offer , perhapo. a few helpful sugges tions. THE NOSE FOR NEWS. To begin with , a young man who proposeu to enter the -wide , yet keenly ompetltlve , field of reportorVal and editorial work for the dally prcos will do well to be quite euro that ho has an aptitude for such work. U is true of every profession and trade that some men who ere in U are peculiarly well fitted for lt duties , while others are not quite eo well fitted , and still other * are not fitted at all. TCuro U doubtlrea a place for every willing and capable man some where Int the busy world , but It la also true that many men never find too place which U truly thelra. Henry Ward Beecher cnce remarked Iliat a large pirt of the misery In the world was duo io the fact tb t too many u.iMre men were In round bole * , and vice versa , and that he bad known many poor musicians who might have made very superior carpenters. The Idea that I wish to convey Is tint the highest success as a. reporter or editor Is not to be boped fcr by any man whoso temperament and abilities are not well suited to the peculiar work which news , paper reporters and editors have to do. There is nuch a thing as "the Journalistic temper ament. " There Is suh a th'og as "tht nense. And If this glH , IsS'not a part ot the joung man's natura } equipment , If ho docs not tiave a keen and all-allvc cympa- tliy with the events of the ; day , a they prc- Ecnt themselves every' morning and evening ; then I advise dim to try'sotno other occupa tion , for I doubt If'Uie gift is ever acquired by any amount of industry , when the man Is not naturally built that way. It requires a very broad and compre hensive mental taste to bo an efficient mem- OENBRAL. CHARLES H. TXV.VLOR. . nroo for news , " by wblch term is meant a quick , practically Instantaneous appveclx- tlon of what Is news , and how miuii vft' ' < " ono piece of news uas wbea compares ! wilt another piece ot news that comtu In at u.i same tline. Thla faculty ot knowing wha nevaj is , end of weighing Its relative valuj and importance is closely alllej to anotae. equally necessary , namely , tne faculty o. seeing where a good piece of news may bj dug out and brought to tlie surface right in the Dick of time , when it la moet Inter esting and valuable. I am Inclined to thlnfc that tba ! gift or newe-huotlng- l born with como men , and that they make the beat | journalists In the repxtorlsl nd editorial ber of a staff ot newspaper writers. Mm whose minds naturally tend to pome one line of thought should avoid the newspaper field , because a newspaper IB a kkaleldo- ecope , In which the topics to be written about are changing every day. Today war la the foreman topic , next week the Klondike dike- will ba at the front again , aad a little later It may be that yachting or boo ball will be the all-absorbtog theme. Suddenly , in the fall , the sceneo wilt thttt. and politics will be the ataple no a of the day. WELL , POSTED AMD SYMPATHETIC , Hence it follow i that a nowapaper writer wbo alms to rice to any of .the higher editorial petition * muit bare wide range , not only of Information , but of sympathy. He must bo able to know something of a great many things rather than to know anyone ono thins profoundly. He muct be able to switch his train of thought from one track to another suddenly , aad to throw his pen with something like equal Intelligence and spirit upon halt a dozen different subjects within the tame week. It follows , there fore , that SUCCESS as a writer for the dally pre-a will be greatly helped by wide rather deep reading. I do not mean by this to say that the writing journalist should know "a llttls of everything and nothing much , " but only to say that if he 1s deeply read and thoroughly Informed en one topic only aay on politics , for example he will never achieve success as an all-round newspaper man. I think no young man contemplating a career a a reporter and editor will make any mistake In laying a foundation by a course ot reading whIUi will acquaint him , first with the hhtory of his own country ; secondly , with the h'story ' of his own etato and city ; thirdly , with the history ot Eng land , and fourthly , with a general knowledge cf the pnyecH condition of the leading European nations , enough to enable him to feel that ho Is Informed correctly as to thslr relative population , wealth and ic- souccs , and the general drift of their present policies la relation to other countries , and particularly In relation to our o\\n. Twelve months ot clcse reading , giving to It from three to four hours a day , making notes of the main points as he got-1 , will be- well given to the preparatory work. This Is a scientific age , and tie should study the popular sciences sufficiently to enable him to write an Intelligent account of a new electrical machine , or a new loco motive. If Ue alms to bccomo an editorial writer , then all knowledge Is tils propet province , and he should never consider his education finished , but should read omnlvor- oualy. It Is true of newspipcr writing as of everything else , that what a man does not know dc cannot tell , and It la only the subjects with which a mtn U familiar that ho can readily wdte about with credit to ( ilmself or profit to his reader. HANDY THING TO HAVE. I would further advlso joung men who aim at success la tbo field of newspaper writing to master the uaeful , though trome- what difficult art of shorthand writing. There Is no occupation ot our day In which the ability to rapidly take down the exact words of a npeaker la mote valuable. I do not mean by this that It Is at all essential for a newspaper writer or editor to be a verbatim stenographer. As a matter ot fact , there Is very little verbatim reporting done in the dally prets , but there are one hun dred and one emergencies In a newspaper writer's life in which ttie ability to make shorthand notra rapidly is extremely useful , and gives him a decided advantage over the man who has to trust either to bis un aided memory , or to euch longhand notes as he can hurriedly- jot down. I might In stance in thla connection the work of the interviewer who seeks out a citizen of prominence and deslrca to obtain a full ex pression of his views on some important public question. He may bo able to make a fair and tolerably accurate report of the ican'e remarks by the help of his memory and his longhand notes only ; but if he Is a eoad shorthand writer , he cao make ( be interview photographically correct. More over , if ho la called upon to hastily make a literal copy of some document of which bo can only have poEAe ilon for a short time pcealbly at a consulting llbrary lt Is easy to see that ho can bring his shorthand writ- log into service with great effect. It seems to me , alsa , that there is a large and grow ing field of special newspaper correspond ence In foreign countries , in which brilliant and highly paid work la called for , In the doing of which a knowledge of other lan guages than English is indispensable. I would advise the ambitious young roan who Is thinking that ho tas 1n him the making of a good foreign or war correspondent to acquire a workable knowledge of French , Spaniih and German. Rcyoud theco things , the puccessful news paper writer needs to cultivate the art of making frlendt1. Ho muat learn meat , after all , from men , not books. It Is very Impor tant to him to gain the confidence of public men , official and unofficial of all eorte of men and women who have news to give and Information to Impart. To thU end ho must learn the meaning of the little word "tact. " It requires tact above all things to win the personal confidence of people and obtain from j them the assistance that Is constantly tieces. | sary to bo obtained In gathering news and pieparlng articles for the dally press. I do not know that I can eay anything more of practical valueto joung men who Intend to try their chances on the reportorlal and edit oral side of journalism. I may adJ , however , that the same tollj qualities of character which help men to success In other flcldu ot work will help them In this. The of habits who his head clear man good , keeps , i his Btomach sound , and his general health I good , will have at least thrco chances of success to every one that the man who U phjslcally unfit will have. Newupapcr work is arduous and exacting , and if any young , man Is thinking of a newspaper career aa an j capy and gentle occupation Into which he will not need to put aa much hatd labor , both phyilcal and mental , as Into any other , j I advise him to keep out of It altogether ; for ho is entirely mUtaken.
