A brief passage from H.A. Cody's 1933 novel
The Girl at Bullet Lake. Here Augustus Rockbridge, editor of the Pretensia
Daily Echo tells his wife about contributor Robert Rutledge:
"He is a clever writer, and we have used several of his articles. They have been most favorably received and copied by other papers. But confound him, he had the impudence to ask me to pay for his stuff."
"He did! Isn't that unusual?"
"Quite. To have his articles published in the Echo should be pay enough. It gives a young writer a publicity he could not otherwise obtain."
Plus ça change...
