Tire Canada Presbyterian has a oorrokpondunt whose °Redone are al ways readable and highly inetruetive. Ile thus refers to a, clans which ii eomewhat numerous in this noighbor. hood :—Thore must be eeveral imn- drod thousand people in this country who can edit is eevespaper.• They can sit quietly in their homes and with- out any trouble say exactly how every article, every contribution, every paragraph ought to be written. They can see at a glanoe what ought to be kept out and what put in. In fact, they can make up a model newspa. per in a moment—in talk. To hear these worthy people speak one would think that publishing a. newspaper is o pleasant kind of pastime iu which people might engage foe amusement and recreation. Writing every day or week is an easy kind of intellect nal exercise that anybody can take— until he tires. These people don't prove that getting out a fairly good journal io emu. They simply provo that they know nothing about journ- alism and that it ie always easy te taik.
