A Word About the Editors of "The Digest"
v tiThe editors of most publications conic into personal
&..! ,! l, vi!lnn minlir tnrniifrl, crernl nrfirlea
editorials, and s,o forth, in which they voice their
individual views. Not so with THE LITERARY
DIGEST, whose editqrial policy is strictly imper
sonal, not a hint of,, the opinions of its staff on any
question appearing in its columns. , t Nevertheless, the
editors of THE DIGEST are a very real and power
ful influence in the community, because they deter-,
mine the subject matter of the magazine from week
to week and its mode of presentation. Always their
study is to be impartial and, self-effacing, yet they
leave their expert mark on everything that they
handle, for they are all proved experts, each in his
particular field, whether it be politics-, art, science,
religion, letters, or what not. They give you of
their best, seeking for no acclaim, but constantly
striving . to. present for your consideration all the
news in all its bearings. .Their quiet work gives THE
j-njt.a i its acknowledged unique distinction.
