fishing Co. to get out one of the best
small town weeklies in the state. Be
lieving that it is the duty of Local
paper first of all to cover the local
field, we shall make efforts to pub
lish every item of local interest which
it is possible for us to get in touch
with. Being new to the City OF
Leavenworth and this community, fol-
time we may find this difficult to do
and until we become better acquainted
many items of interest will not come
to our attention. Right here readers
of The Echo can help us out, and we
urge you to do so. If you have some
one visiting you or if you go visiting
if you know of anyone who has died
been born or got married, call us W
on the phone, or better yet, write the
! item out and send it in. The columns
of The Echo are open TO all and VIZ
shall try to make it a community
newspaper in every sense of the word

ing bit of news today, while it il
