any other people, and have more, better
and cheaper ones to read, because they
are the most intelligent, active and pro-
gressive nation the sun shines upon and
the perfection to which the American
press of this day has attained, will ever
be the marvel and pride of our age and
race.
But we desire especially to call atten-
ton, now, to the place SO well filed by
the local press, which makes especial
effort to bring into prominent relief the
business and interests of some particular
locality, and while it leaves the broader
and wider field to the enterprising dalies,
selects some prescribed quarter upon
which to concentrate all its efforts.
To insure success in the midst of such
active competition and in the face of so
great disadvantages, it is apparent that
the local paper must have the united and
generous support of the people where its
lot is cast; as it certainly receives a will
ing response from any community which
knows how to appreciate, as its true value,
so much labor expended for its benefit
Certainly none can give this support un-
willingly or grudgingly, when they re-
member the direct and immediate advan-
tages flowing from a general and hearty
recommendation to ones immediate
neighbors and friends of whatever he has
to sell, or can manufacture, or desires to
announce.
Then, too, to know, of a Saturday
evening, as you open the wellflled col
umns, redolent of friends and home that
every page will bear the mark of some
familiar hand and discourse upon some
topic of especial domestic interest is in
deed a delight which the more stately
daily, and even the monthly magazine
wrapped in the daintiest of covers, often
fail to impart.
Give hearty support, then, to the
local journal; send in your subscriptions
cheerfully and promptly, and with an
expression of lively good will for the
Woodworking editor and his corps of
assistants; remember the character of a
place-whether alive or dead-whether
liberal or parsimonious-whe pro-
gressive or at dead level of fossilized
stupidity-is better reflected and oitener
demonstrated by an inspection of its col
umns than in any other way. The edi-
torial, the occasional article the selected
news, and the advertisements displayed,
will at once be sure guide to the intel
lectual, moral, social and business status
OF that community. Boston Advocate
