A REAL NEWSPAPER.

A newspaper isn't simply q bare
chronicler of events. 1t is personal.
ity. 1t comes into your house almost
as a member of your family.
What sort Of a person do you like
to have visit you?
He ought to be honest, courageous.
no hypocrite. and gentleman. with
a real interest in you, ready to lend
hand If you need help. Cheerful
ness and good humor are excellent
qualities, and a wide range of in
terests.
What do you find in The Star?
It has opinions, Of course, and 1t
speaks them out freely. They are its
own and they are not Influenced by
outside interests. The square deal Is
its platform.
In handling news it observes the
decencies and amenities of life. 1t
never wantonly brings shame or sor-
row to any home. It's advertisements
are clean.
If the Twin City Star does not
bring you something of interest In
any particular issue, it has failed by
so much that week. It takes of its
hat and apologies for having bored
you as visitor.
But it trusts this doesn't often hap
pen. Not often, does It?
Begin New Year with a subscrip-
ton to a Negro paper. If wou do not
subscribe to local paper, send for
your home paper. But pay for it.
Race papers are necessity. and
must be supported by individuals.
Every Negro should in some way con-
tribute something towards the ad-
of the Negro Press.
