newspaper at Greensboro, y. c. That
point has been selected because a
daily published there can each day
reach practically every post office
in the State that has daily mail. Be

thriving and progressive towns in the
state. and the only one of it's size that
now has no morning daily with the
full Associated Press news service
hence the proposed newspaper could
have not only a strong local support.
but would have the whole State for
its field.
A number of those who have taken

enterprise have requested the under

paper and get bids for the presses,
machines and other equip
ment for first-class daily newspaper.
