ABOUT NEWSPAPERS
recent report on the newspaper
situation on this continent centeins
sanne striking information, which
shows the precarious nature of the -
publishing business. There are 22,-,
500 periodicals published on this
continent in 10.003 cities and towns.,
in 1917 there were 24,858. This is
a decrease of 2358. The high ea -t

of business every year. Canada is
not the only graveyard of newspap-
ers. The whole continent telly the:
same story of defunct newspaper en-
terprises. It is true new periodicale
appear, but in equal numbers they
have quit. Weekly newspapers have •
suffered as well as the dallies and in
ten years 3229 of that class ceased
publication. The year 1924 witnes-;
sled the greatest number of losses.1
They continued in 192s, nut since!
that date more stability has exieted.I
The war, which increased the cost of
materials and labor so enormously,!
started the havoc with the newspap-
er business. It is probable that, in.
the end, the public has gained. lt
has led to better and more indeponds'
ent newspapers, with an increased
sense of responsibility 10 the accur-
ate publication of news, and impar :
