In every other city Of any size,
other newspapers are printed and
other people read them in the
same intensive way. In the great
stretches of rural communities the
newspapers from the cities radlate
out through the mail boxes.
North America is literally bound
together and welded into a conti-
nent with common knowledge and
common impuIses-by its 10000
600 daily newspaper circulation
Newspaper readers have come to
look on the daily advertising as part
of the news. They turn to their
newspaper when they want to buy,
lust as they turn to it for the ball

Just because he had just begun to realize how big and strong he really was.
 Now, it is splendid thing to feel big and strong and brave; very splendid thing. But it is a bad thing to let that feeling turn to pride, fool ish pride.
