HOGARTH George H. Hogarth, a member of one of the old families of Dam- lington passed on in Parry Sound Hospital on September l7th. He was stricken on the train while on bis way to the home of bis son, Bruce, of Winnipeg. He was principal of Whitby Colleg- iate and taught there for 21 years. He afterwards taught in Bran- don and Regina. He retired some years ago and made bis home in Toronto. He was an active mem- ber of the United Church and an official of Trinity United Church, Toronto. He was the son of Dan- iel and Elizabeth Hogarth and one of 14 children. Only two members of the fam- ily remain, Laura, Mrs. R. Pascoe, Hampton, and Dr. Luther N. Ho- garth of Detr.oit, Mich. (Continued from Page One) paper. Clarence Osborne, veteran employee, a star in hockey and basebaîl, handles the presses in turning out what many dlaim "The cleanest print job of any weekIy in Canada." Compositor George Graham, a war veteran, sets up advertising layout, takes bis turn on linotype in news and editorials. Hugh McDonald, with a life- time of printing experience, is chief linotype operator and lino mechanic. He corrects manu- script before and after proof read- ing and seldom needs a dictionary. The two "printer's devils" to use a newspaper term, are Johnnie Brooks and John Virgin, the lat- ter a Navy veteran, are appren- tices learning the trade. No two brighter lads can be found any- where and ail the dirty jobs are accepted by them as part of the task. Clarence Hall, veteran of World War I, handles mainten- ance, keeps the entire place spot- lessly cdean. Advertising Manager Finally, said the speaker, "I have been credited with a lot of jobs, but my official designation is Advertising Manager." With the story complete as to personnel, it-went on to describe the mech- anics as to how the paper was turned out eacb week. Once off the press the next week's edition gets under way. Marked on the calendar are meetings coming up that must be reported and The Statesman bas acquired an envi- able reputation for reporting ad- dresses given by speakers address- ing local audiences. Local news is assembled; the social columins, the birtbs, marriages, deatbs and obituaries are written up. In short the pulse and rhythm of the community. News Assembly During the weekend the editor plans and writes the editorials that have become widely quoted. Meantime- the staff cameraman looks about for pictures of cur- ent interest al of. which must be sent promptly to Toronto to get haîf-tones back in time for publication. It all takes planning and co-ordination, each week, to tumn out your hometown paper, and very much of it night work in both front office and back shop. Main reliance for rural news faîls upon a splendid staff of country correspondents. Each week a budget of news comes in from very capable lady reporters throughout the district which forms a prime feature of rural weeklies. Their assistance is in- valuable and their interest all the more notable since none dlaim but nominal remuneration for their services. Thus through co-ordin- ated effort the weekly edition of your paper is assembled. Columns are also open for another feature; "Letters to the Edîtor" which ,sometimes create much contro- versy. The entîre product passes through the hands of the editor who adds, deletes, appraises, writes the headings. indicates the pages for the various items. Mechanics The back shop takes over when copy and- advertisements are passèd along. From the lino- typé' comes the metal columns later assembled in the "forms" that go to the presses. Average linotype column takes 50 min- utes to set or a total of 40 boums for the entire paper. Proofs are pulled and re-read for errors in the front office. And as the three press runs o! entire pages roll off, these too get a final check for mistakes. Once the assembly is complete it is passed through the folding machine and the familiar name-labels attached. Your paper is then rushed through the mails. to the bookstores and newsboys with our hope for your pleasure. and information. Value of Advertlsing "Advertising, which is the main- stay of revenue," said the speak- er, "is the job fallîng to me." It requires close and meticulous at- tention in its three main branches, national, local and classified. There can be no excuse for mis- takes once approved copy is de- lîvered. It is set up and proof- read with great care. These ob- servations were prelude to reason- ed argument on the value of advertising. Some merchants dlaim they don't believe in adver- tising, yet they have show cases and wîndow displays preciseiy to attract customers; the few who happen to pass. The function of your paper is to project, through attractive ads, this limited view to more than 3000 subscribers, which, estimating 4 to a family, provides close readership among more than 12,000 people. Comparative Costs A few dlaim that newspaper advertisîng is expensive. Here is a comparison: For a display ad, 4 columns by 12 inches the cost is $16.80 in one issue of the paper. For 3,000 bills or dodgers, same text and size, to be thrown on doorsteps, the cost is $19.00 plus 8 percent sales tax, plus cost of de- livery in town and lc a piece postage if sent mailed to the country. Then there is no as- surance they will be read before being consigned to the waste- basket. On the other hand your paper is paid for and is read from cover to cover with the adver- tîsements set amidst interesting news. Real Service A proper advertisement with a littie thought behind it is bound to catch the subscriber's eye and all are potential customers of the alert merchant. Newspaper ad- vertising "brings people into town, a community asset, and into the store that advertises." Ail of whicb leads up to consideration of budgeting advertising costs and their form and incidentals which is the point where the paper's advertising manager enters the picture to assist and advise with all the modemn aids in the form of cuts and illustrations that add up to a prime essential "Service." The address went on into an exposition of the different factors of national, local and classified ads and the work involved in each to meet the paper's- "dead- lune." Much of the classified, such as "For Sale," etc., cornes over the telephone and is routine, front office work. National advertising, such as banking, hydro, insurance, etc., cornes in by mail from large advertisîng agencies, accompanied by cuts or mats, a formalized set- up. Local ads, are those by enter- prising merchants and it is a real pleasure working with. them to achieve the desired effect. General View Merchants, farmers, auctioneers, industrialist and indeed everyone having things to seil thus have a media to keep regularly before the buying public a great range of the commodities and services which mark the course of modern progress. This function of adver- tising closely associated with the news and other features is the summation of the fine service which your paper renders the community. It is a function that goes forward weekly throughout ail of rural Canada, from coast to éoast and is undertaken by more than 750 rural weeklies. In conclusion, the speaker des- cribed how the ads are setup in the composing room and the en- deavour to have ail displays ready by Monday of each week wbich gives time for any changes later desired before going to press. At the same time work goes-forward in estimating and arrangîng job printing, another important de- partment of the weekly press,1 Don't Gamble ! ARE YOU gambling with your home?

AUl of whicb is in accord with the spirit of the times. The closing phrase in the inform- ative address was an invitation to "Open House" at The Statesman when ail changes are effected during which the public may see at first hand how a weekly news- paper functions. In its contribu- tion to the economic life of the ,community The Statesman pays out an average of $24,000.00 a year to its employees, and while not a union shop, the rates com- pare favorably with union shops in districts much greater than the 2 FOR TRIS THURSDAY one it serves.
