April 9 - NuHMAN HAPGOOD, editor of Colli(!r's Weekly, will
speak on "The Social Function of the Press." Happily, this speaku
has demonstrated in his own career that the press has a social function.
You will recall that, four years ago, he was
tried and acquitted in a suit for criminal
libel instituted by a certain stt of individuals
in New York whose blackmailing practices
he hacl dared to expose through the columns
of his pa per. Besides being a courageous
and enthusiastic joun)alist, Mr. Hapgood is
an author of high repute. He has written a
vital unconventional study of Daniel vVebster
and a very remarkable life of Lincoln. Born,
as he was, on Lincoln's own ground and
brought up largely with Lincoln traditions,
he knows exactly what it was in the mart) r
president that makes him the idol of American democra,cy; and it is precisely this knowledge which makes Norman
Hapgood a, highly desirable ford Hall speaker. He recognizes 1hat
"yellow journalism" for instance, is justified, in spite of its faults,
because it is the voice of the people, because in the battle against
oppression in this country it has helped enormously tl~e purposes of
democracy. Something of this will very likely come out in his lecture,
At ai1y rate you are safe in anticipating a stimulating evening:,
HOW SUPPOR.TBD : · These meetings are made possible through
the funds left to the Boston Baptist Social Union (in whose hall we
meet) by the late DANIEL SHARP Fono, who owned The Youth's
Companion, The management of the meetings is in the hands of a
Committee from the Social Union.
