Hearsay and idle rumor are not
safe news for a reliable paper to
use, and legitimate news gathering
is not the easy matter many read
ers of a paper imagine says an
exchange. Not only must the
reporter be altert to secure all
that is going on, but he must
verify every item to let no false
statements get into his paper.
The credibility of a newspaper is
a large part of its stock in trade
and, if it has the confidence of the
people, half the battle is won.|H
The Kulm Messenger has figur
ed the following out Friday at
sunset the world will be 5669
years old, according to the He
brew reckoning of the Bible. On
that day begins the great holiday
period of the Jewish year with the
festival of Rosh Hoshonoh This
festival is observed by orthodox
Jewes throughout the world for
two days. In all synagogues on
Friday evening and Saturday
morning, services will be held.
On Saturday, October 10th, occurs
the beginning of the festival of
Sunroth orTabernacles,which con
tinues for eight days. This festi
val commemorates the dv&liug of

Last spring when a number
applied for their citizenship papers
questions were asked them and
their answers given in the Leader
which showed the lack of
knowledge some had of our laws.
Court has just convered in
Dickinson and the Recorder has
the following to say about ap
plicants in that locality: Some
queer answers were given to the
questions asked by the govern
ment's representatives to the
applicants for citizenship papers.
Here are a few of them:
"Where is the capital of the
state" A. "Hebron." "Who makes
the laws of the state?" A. Simpson
and Burke." "How many have
you in your family?" A. "Six
head." Many more such cases
might be sighted but we feel that
this is sufficient" to show the ur
gent need of the legislature to
provide some form of an educa
tional qualification for citizenship
as is provided for by the amend
ment to the constitution passed
sevetal years ago and which no
legislature has dared to take up
for fear of offending their con
stitutents, which, says the legisla
ture shall pass an act defining the'
qualifications to conform with the
intent of the amendment.:^^®s
