PROM EDITOR TO EDITOR

(Ruth Palmer sent this to The Beaeon
in ’condolence’...)
don’t know how newspapers got into
the world, and I don’t think God does, fpr
He never mentions them in the Bible.
be the editor was one of the Fallen Angles
for he seems to fall for about everything
that people tell him. If the editor makes
a mistake, folks say he ought to be hung)
if a lawyer makes a mistake he appeals
the case) when a doctor makes a mistake
they say nothing cause they don’t know
Latin and they couldn’t read his writing
if they did* An editor makes a mistake,
there^s a lo,t of hollering, cussing, and
a libel suit, while when the doctor makes
a mistake there’s --flowers.
”A doctor can use a word a mile long
and it won’t make any difference if he
knows what it means, for folks will think
ho’8 educated, while an editor has to toe
able to spell any word he uses. If a do<r
goes to see another man’s wifie, he charges
for the visit, while if the editor goes
he gets shot. People that call the dootor
and get well think he’s a great man. If
they don’t get well, they(re dead and
canlt say anything. Two-thirds of the
folks in town are sore at the editor all
the time, either because the paper said
something about them they didn’t like, or
raid something nice about somebody else.”

Ed. and got canned.
