Announcement was made last week of
the consolidation of the two republican
papers of Mt. Ayr, and commencing
March 1st they will be issued as semi
weekly under the name of Record
News. In the consolidation Walter
Beall who has been editor of the News
since it was first published fifteen years
ago, retires and will probably engage in
the newspaper business elsewhere in
Iowa. Howard H. Tedford, who has
been associated with his father, J. H.
Tedford, in the publication of the
Record, also retires and will en-
gage in other business, the new
publishers being Tedford & Spurrier.
j. 81. Tedford is one of the veterans of
the newspaper business and will con-
tinue to have charge of the editorial
policy of the paper, while the junior
member has for number of years been
foreman of the Record and will attend
to the business management. The news
paper field at Mt. Ayr was crowded
with three papers and there was no
money in the business for either of the
republican papers. The consolidation
will put the business on a sound bust
ness basis and the new management will
have one of the strongest republican
papers in the state. We wish them
success.

There is fascination about pros

"a Struggle for Cold" which comes

of it's situations are intense, the humor
in which it abounds is commendable for
its cleanliness; no suggestive lines or
situations in this play. To the moral
