Now while spasm OF city i'm
provement has hold OF our citizens
it would be well to consider to what
extent the local newspapers ore be-
ing supported. The local newspaper
is an index OF the push and enterprise
OF q town, and to an outsider it is al.
most the only means OF knowing
what kind OF town we have. Quite
often the SHEAF has requests fol
sample copies from parties in distant
states seeking information about ou1
town and country. Now if the loca
paper is supported in very luke
warm manner, if not half the busi
ness enterprises in the town are repre-
sented in it's advertising columns
then it is impossible for it to give {
true and favorable impression Of th'
place where it is published. A loca
paper is run primarily to make a liv
ing for it's owner, but it is also in tr
nature OF a public enterprise, q neces
sary factor in the development Of an.
community. Ii literally supporte,
it will respond cheerfully and it's col
umns will TEEN with increased bright
nesss and interest. No newspape
nan can for any lenpht Oftime affOr,
