Abstract

When the author went to work for the newspaper "Boston Evening Transcript," as a news reporter at the beginning of 130, it seemed to him a wonderfully good break. It had taken him almost eight years to disentangle himself from the hardware business. Yet, with barely a year of newspapering behind him, he was on the staff of his celebrated sheet. True, its circulation was somewhere around 38, 000, but many of them, in office conjectures, felt that this figure could be boosted to 40000 perhaps even 45000. The fact that the circulation was slightly junior to that of evening papers in the United States and it impressed none of them. All they knew about circulation was that the newspaper in some mysterious way, could get along with it.
