NEWSPAPER WORK AS A CAREER The 2nd of 3 advertisements. Doubtless you have heard talk of an outstanding Washington corre spondent or x>f an outstanding foreign correspondent. The chances are you have heard very little talk of an outstanding local reporter. Yet an outstanding local reporter is one of our most valuable citizens. Through hard labor, he has acquired a thorough knowledge of many important things in his community, and he has built up a reputation for absolute integrity. His acquaintances are wide-spread. He may know,, and probably does know, an able detective sergeant, a couple of prominent business men, a flamboyant ward boss, a shy but brilliant professor of physics, a railroad executive, a wise and well-loved minister, an old-time civil servant in the city hall who can remember everything that happened there during the past forty years, a leading banker, a judge and a notable doctor. He has acquired their trust and their respect and hence they will talk freely with him. He is gifted with "a sense of smell” as to what is phony and dubious. Perhaps he never could,be an outstanding Washington or foreign cor respondent. Perhaps he much prefers his own line of work. Competent performance of a local reporter’s job is not easy, but it may be attended by great satisfaction and a world of romance. If you are primarily interested in security and starting with big pay (and such interests are common and very natural), newspaper work as a career does not hold much of an appeal. If you like to work hard, to be something of an artist, to laugh and dream a little, and never to know what is going to happen next, then newspaper work as a career probably offers more than anything else.
