THE SiCSAL: 1OI11a;I{I1'II (OITA I:IO SIR ALFRED HARMSWORTH The Publisher of Thirty -Five Periodicals e meat successful newspaper publisher in the world is Sir Alfred 1Tarms orih, who owns thirty-five periouirals, seven of which are dailies. In the 1 ding cities of England. He was born In Ireland In 1865, the eldest son of an i:ngiish barrister, and was destined for the bar, but before he had enmpleled his grammar school course he determined to be, an editor, and though sentenced by his father to go to Cambridge, he succeeded in having this sentence reversed. At seventeen he w'as Installed as editor et one of Sir William Ingram's journals in the office of the "Ilustrated London News." Four years later he married when w and n t cony -three started his first paper, "Answers," k penny. journal of popular information, and the foundation of his present fortune. The publication office was a small room, hardly large enough to draw a long breath in. and the four dollars a week he paid in rent wags quite an Item. The first number sold 13,00O copies; within a year It rose to 48,000, and four months later, by puzzlek, schemer, guessing contests, prizes and clever and daring methods of wtnnleg publicity unknown to the conservative British press, the tireulatlon rose to nearly three-quarters of a million. ' When the unapipreriative government offlelals stopped the competitions the battle was already won and t'I(tory petrrhed on the Harmsworth banners. Then followed a long string of minor publications. until. in 1890, he bought the "Evening News," a paper witto an !mouthed record for failure. and by the Midas touch of Harmsworth It"was on a poking basis In a few weeks. The next year he started the "Mail" an instant success. which now has the largest circulation of any paper In\the world; sells five times aa many copies pi any other London daily and ,pays Its edltor-a man only thirty -a salary of $125.000 a year Np one in the emp'oy of the firm: which comprises Sir Alfred and his rix brothers, works more than five days a week .every one is granted a vaeatIon'eaoi year. and if an employe desire' t0 leave England and travel Sir Alfred pays Dalt the expenses. - The Napoleon--off-journalism owns half a dozen axe rotmti,y houses bs. rides hos magnificent town house in Berkeley Square, and more than a dozen automobiles. He does everything on a large Beale, and recently bought a tract rf forest land In Newfoundland. half the size of Vermont. from which he will make ell his paper to bet carried to England in his own ships. woos ,u a e or ae. r.r.,....,t etre/web hits: melee:, hr W r. wb'1. .1 ol.
