This thing of ons man acting as the “devil,” local reporter, boss mechanic, compositor, proof reader and mail clerk of a country news paper, and when the paper is out have some intelligent (?) person tell you, ‘ ‘there were several errors in the last issue,” is something, certainly no Saint w’ould stand. Truly, the life of a country news paper man is tough. Merited Praise. From tlie Alfred Sun. The young m en w h o went to AVhitesville.to. listen to the memo rial address by Air. F. C.
