Support the Local Paper.

Speaking of what a newspaper does
for community, United States Sen
ator David Davis, Of Illinos, made an
address that remains ever green in the
memories of newspaper men, says the
Marengo (La) Democrat. He said ;
Every year every local paper gives
from 500 to 5000 free lines for the
benefit of the community in which it
is located. No other agency can or
will do this. The editor in proportion
to bis means does more for his town
than any other man, and in all fair.
ness, man with man, he ought to be
supported-not because you happen
to like him or admire his writing. but
because local paper Is the best invest
ment a community can make. 1t may
not be crowded with great thought,
but financially it is of more benefit
than both preacher and teachers. To-
day editors do more for less pay than
any men on earth. Patrouize your
home paper, not as charity, but as
an investment. "-Exchange.

are we ministers required, as all mil :
