From the many kind words of en-.
couragement and financial aid in the
way of prompt renewals and new sub
scriptions, we believe the people fully
appreciate the value of The BLADE
to the community. And this feeling
is certainly reciprocated on the part
of the publisher. Such condition
cannot help but be for the good of
the town and surrounding country.
The home paper has an influence for
good which is hard to estimate. It
moulds public opinion. 1t brings
many rich blessings to the homes it
visits. THE BLADE is a mirror, in
which are reflected the happenings,
births, deaths and mar
riages of the community. In fact, it
is record that goes to make up the
history of its patrons and their friends.
It is also reflector in which those at {
seeus and we are proud to {
