The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1907-05-08

We regret to state that number of our eX-
changes to each week without any
message. You search the columns of some
of them without finding single thought ex-
pressed. The coming and goings are duly
cllroncled, and these are doubtless of interest
III the locality. We believe the newspaper has
a higher mission however, and we think that
every editor can we'll afford to devote some of
his time and space to discussion along some of
the great lines of thought that are agitating
the world. He who does less does not fulfill
his duty.
