Everybody reads the newspapers
these days. We are as nation OF
readers.
We read the daily papers for the
worlds news of the day, for the mar
ket reports, for the works of our Leg
islators in National and State CAPT
tolls
But we read the local paper for the
news which comes straight home to
us-the news which is necessary to
our growing intelligence-Which is an
essential part of our being.
We read the local paper because it
alone can keep us in close touch with
local affairs of moment-with our
neighbors and the communicative
conditions which are Of prime i'm
portance to us.
We read the local paper because
without it we would be practically
strangers in our own homes, because
we would live in ignorace of those
happenings of which local conditions
make it imperative that we be con-
stantly informed.
Present day necessity requires that
we read the papers, and especially
the local paper.
