SMALL TOWN vs.. BIG CITY

For many years it has been a favor
tie amusement of the large city
dailies to refer to the local news
contained in the country press as
''smaIl town stuff"
It pieases the city dweller to read
it at. his breakfast table.
It emphasizes the superiority Of
metropolitan wisdom"
And we of the country press are
content to let it go that way without
Ia passing word or two of comment.
The "small town stuff" which fur
Inishes so much amusement to our city
friends may be honely in its phrase
logy-it may be unimportant as COM
pared to the vital affairs of the world
but it possesses the merit of being
the truth.
The average country publisher does
mot resort to Misrepresentation and
sensationalism in the columns of his
paper. His news articles and items
are composed of facts as he finds
them, and they are not doctored OF
colored for the purpose of pleasing
any class or faction, or for the build
ing up Of huge subscription list.
When he takes a stand editonally
on any public question, be it local
state or national. he has in view the
welfare of the people as a whole, and
not in interests of some political
faction or machine
His columns may not contain ar
overplus of news, but such as there
is may be read with perfect safety by
the growing children of the commun.

ing questionable thnu~hts and desire.

His paper may be small and pro

The reader is never at a loss II

or whether it is composed principally
of what is commonly known as news

The publisher Of any big city
