ER. NOTICE TO EXCHANGE EDITORS. Please do not publish the item again stating that the wife of the Mikado of Japan is a Vassar graduate, as the lady has since become a grandmother, and she and the item both need rest and quiet for a little while. And then there is the sweet dimpled, spirituelle face of the exchange editress of the Baldwin Index which smiles so exquisitely as she tells us that we are growing better and less disposed to quarrel. Yes, sister you are eminently correct, we are becoming more and more agreeable all the time and with your kind and tender sympathy we hope to be so redeemed from useless grumbling that a whole torch light procession might tramp on our corns without calling as much as a murmur from our lips. We are in receipt of Washburn's new paper, the Reporter. It is a weekly, modeled after the Courier, but of smaller size. The first issue is quite conservative and proper, it attacks no one, does not say what its object is or what it proposes to do. Aside from its general arrangement of matter, which is decidedly poor, the paper, on the whole, is fair. It is, we understand, a private concern, owned by two students. The management and editorial staff is made up almost entirely of Preparatory students. This seems to us a little strange, unaccustomed as we are to having preparatory students on our college papers. The paper is well patronized by advertisers and financially is on a sound basis. We believe that there is an opportunity at Washburn for such a paper and think, that if rightly managed, it will become decidedly popular. But allow us to suggest that you make it a little more attractive in its general make up, try and get the best men possible to serve on its staff and keep its general tone as high as you can. The reputation of a college paper among its co-temporaries and through this the reputation of the college among its sister institutions depends more upon the man who controls the exchange column of said paper than many would care to admit. This column is the first one read by the reviewer and if it appears bright and newsy the rest of the paper and institution represented produce a favorable impression upon the reader, and if he be an exchange editor ten to one will communicate his impression to his own journal. Yet many of our exchanges put some of the worst sticks on the editorial staff in charge of the exchange column. Look at the Niagara Index. They have reversed natural order and although the balance of the paper is miserable, the sheet is getting more notice than any other college journal going. The same is true of the Hesperian, the Lexington Journal and the defunct Pacific Pharos. When will college men ever learn that the exchange column is the front door yard of the paper and that the more attractive it is kept the better will be the opinion of the neighbors. J. S.
