Editorial section of a North Carolina newspaper opposes those skeptical of having county agents spend their time furnishing news stories to newspapers. The information is considered valuable for readers, or it would not be used. "There is no dearth of matter to fill up columns."

Response to "'Selling' vs. news" by Bristow Adams, Cornell University. Harris notes that the Cornell president and dean probably spend time seeking support from the legislature or other sources for their institution and its work. Asks if their efforts are (as Adams argued) "subversive to the purpose of the college?" Also observes that a pastor is paid for ministering to the souls of his flock, but he pauses frequently to pass the collection plate. "I maintain that if education is worth having, then it is justifiable to educate people to support educational institutions."
