OLD HOME TOWN PAPER
TO HAVE A WEEK
Nation Wide Campaign Launched for
November 7-12-Place in Commu-I
nifty Life Emphasized.

November 7-12 has been set as Sub
scribe for Your Home Town Paper
Week" and this newspaper, together
with the thousands of country news
papers the United States over-there
are not far from $4,000 Of them, week
lies and small dailies-is to partici-
pate.
The purpose of the campaign is not
only to induce residents of the small
communities and the home town folks
who are far from their native heath
to subscribe for the home paper, hut
also to emphasize the important place
the home newspaper plays In the life
of its community.
This campaign has the hearty sup
port and cooperation not only of the
newspapers but thousands of minis
tiers and school principals, and many
state agricultural colleges and farm
and home bureau organizations.
Some persons. it is pointed out, have
been inclined to belittle the place and
function Of the country newspaper
They have not realized that in reality
the home paper Is a community insti
tuition and that II enables the other
institutions. such as the church and
the school and all the rest to function
better and more effectively. That 1t Is
q necessity II the town is TO advance
During the time between now and
'Home Town Paper Week." Novem-
Der 7-12, this newspaper in it's col
umns will have much to say about the
Home Town Paper-nOt this newspa-
per in particular, but the home town
paper the nation over, the home town
newspaper as real and distinctive
factor In American life

Random Observations.

This isn't country publisher talk
ing. hut the editor of farm paper !:
The metropolitan daily will bring TO
ones doorstep the news of the world
seen through the spectacles of the city
editor, but it is the editor who lives
in the heart OF the community who Is
able to reflect the sentiment Of the
local group. He alone is the true
interpreter of events as they affect
the small town and the farming com
munity that Immediately surrounds the
town.

Back to Town Crier
..~.".,s"."s"..

How many residents Of any small
community have ever considered what
might happen If there were no news
papers? Just previous to Sub
scribe for Your Home Town Paper
Week." which is to be observed the
country over November 7-12 is a good
time to recall the plight of Macon,
Mo-. not long ago, when fire put the
Chronlcle-Herald ont of business for
two weeks.
According to The Publishers Aux
iliary, the old town crier, relic Of
many years back, was yanked from
his hiding place, busted off, and put
back on his job, with jangling bell,
a megaphone, and fog-horn voice only
a little worse for long disuse.
II may have been a novelty for two
weeks. But think of a community
without printers ink, compelled to get
its announcements of auctions, sales,
court sessions, births, marriages,
deaths, epidemics of sickness, dog Or
dinances, board meetings, commence
ments, tax notices, advertisements
of help and situations wanted acct
dents, and the rest, through shouted
word like that Of the ordinary train
announcer in a city depot. The town
crler was romantic figure iii his day,
but few towns would like to return to
his ministrations now
When one thinks of the temporary
plight of Macon, and that it might
become the permanent handicap Of
many towns, it is well to think Of sup
porting the local paper.

4. Knows His Folks.

Here are some random observations
OF man who has visited and studied
good many small communities: If
you read your local paper you will
not miss much that is happening
around home. There is no use saying
that you wish your town had paper
like one in the other town. for the
other fellow there is saying the same
things The man who reads his local
paper thoroughly is usually pretty
good citizen and has IT all over the
fellow who does not. Local papers,
when all is said and done, do more to
uphold the institutions of this state
and country than any other known
contributing force in the worlds work
