New Jersey Publisher Says Weekly Cannot Be Supplanted by Metro

PEOPLE WANT NEWS ABOUT
 HOME FOLKS

At the SlAly*bnlfQ OullnS OI the New Jersey Press associa ton, held the latter part of June at Lake Minnewaska, N. Y, and attended by large concourse of newspaper publishers, the home paper naturally came in for con siderable discussion. Ap eyer timely subject had been assign ed to John z Demarest, pub fisher of the record at Tenahy, N J. It was: Weekly vs Daily MT. Demarest said:
 An intelligent farmer in the state of New York. years ago, travelled weekly his. six miles to the city of Auburn for his two newspapers, his city weekly and his Christian Intelllgencer, the weekly religious organ of the Reformed church. These were his mental pabulun and his edu cators. He read them through from the first page to the last. He knew the great city of New York through advertisements in the IntelligeDcer. He knew the chief happenings of the re ligious world through the same medium. He knew thoroughly the principal doings of his own denomination, the church assem plies, the new faiths which were seeking to supplant the ortho doxy which he believed, on which he leaned. He went with missionaries and preachers on their trips, gaining clear. pie lures of distant lands and of the states and territories of this wide continent. He knew the poiti cal cults of the hour. the scien- lists whose wCndrouS discover ies were making such changes. the noted men living whose names were honors to the land.
 His local weekly educated him in community life. It col ored his politics, kept him in touch with county and state acts | made fine medium of communi cation when he desired to buy or sell. gratified his harmless curi osity as to the comings and go ings of his neighbors, brought him wise bits of information, furnished topics for discussion with the neighbors, had just enough of state and national news to keep him advised of the big happenings. He was an edu. cated man and his educators were his weekly papers and his Bible.
 As age drew on, and the com munity increased in size, and the worlds work became so yolumi nous he took a daily. It never gave him the satisfaction gwen by h.S humber confrereS. It was too large. contained so much he did not want that at last he discontinued it and waited pa tiently till Friday of each week to know the chief news, really getting more than his neighbors who read by flaming headlines and gathered their information so hurriedly that it was an un certain quantity.
 This little story sums up the  place of the local weekly in it's neighborhoods.
