Sustain Your Home Paper.

He is good citizen who cheerfuliy
helps to sustain those public spirited en-
terprises which tend to build up his town
and section; by no means the least OF
which is the local newspaper. The man
who patfonizes his home paper solely
and exclusively for the financial benefit
he derives from such patronage has 4
very narrow conception of the real duties
of citizenship. Ii such spirit were to
characterize the actions of such people in
all similar cases, how unpopular they
would be with the masses of the people.
Where is the man i'm this or any other
town who would be willing to see the
doors of his printing office closed never
again to be opened? We believe such a
man would be hard to find. 1t might be
true that so far as he was individually
concerned the paper would be of no con-
Germ, but he knows that no town can
prosper without newspaper. lie knows
that newspaper reflects the business en-
terprise of his town and tells the outside
world that there is such Il place on the
habitable globe; that it is the faithful
guardian of the town, defending or pro-
tecting it when defense or protection is
necessary against the assaults of its enc
mics. Natural pride and friendship for
his town would impel him to favor the
perpetuity of the newspaper. Yet he
deems himself justitiable in Withholding
his support and patronage because. in his
opinion, it does not pay a big enough
profit to patrOnize the paper. He can not
see the profit growing out of the invest
ment in the way he does when he buys
an article for one dollar and sells it for
two. This is wrong. 1t is no longer 4
question of doub. rs to whether or not it
pays to patronize ones home paper. But
aside from your own opinion about
whether itpays or not. do you not feel it
to be Your duty to help sustain yonr home
paper? If only a few Others, provided
they were certain ones, thought as you do
on this subject, you would soon have no
paper. Newspapers, like all other bust
ness undertakings, can not be Success
fully run without money, in order to have
which they must be patronized. They
return full equivalent for every dollar
they get, asking for nothing but what
they earn. Every honorably conducted
paper is entitled to decent support from
those who reside in the section in the in
tercst of which the paper is published

New York Mirror: In few Of our theaters the
orchestra is kept up to the proper standard but
to the annoyance and discomfort of thousands of
play goers this important department is in the
majority of cases. allowed to run itself. If the
leader be conscientious, it is possible that the
quality of the music provided may be good; but
breeds careiessness among the underlings con-
sequently the orchestral director is apt to be-
come infected with the neglectful spirit If he de-
tects it in his employer. By no means are we
prepared to say that the orchestra is at all essen

vice to remedy defect, and. therefore, It's ne

But If we must have orchestras, let
them be composed of the best material,
and let them be directed with skill Instead OF
the hackneyed selections affected by our leaders
in too many cases, taste should be exercised to
secure novel and pleasing pieces. At some thea
tiers we might designate by name, the orchestraS
have been rendering certain selections continu-

for change and variety does not appeal to the

The mission of the orchestra is to please the ear
