Because business in general is bad must

Must wait for things to pick up or

Fiction magazines can 60 farther" they
said, for ten readers seek amusement to

not hope for more than 100000 circulation:
that is a maximum.
Business still wavered in uncertainty at that time.
Only the few understood that uncertainty is oPpor

The Literary Digest rejecting the counsel of

costly campaign ever undertaken by magazine to

Strong for Home Paper


NO, | don't take the local paper
any more," one farmer said to an
other as they We're waiting at the
creamery to unload their milk.
They had just been looking at a
poster advertising Subscribe for Your
Home Town Paper Week. November
7-12." Il take a daily paper, and
that's about all | need. 1t has few
items every week from our commu-
nifty, and | feel that l save two dol
lars year by not subscribing to the
home paper"
"Well, that's one way to look at it,"
said the other farmer, "but I've always
felt that a local newspaper was a
pretty valuable asset to any cOmmu-
nifty, and if everybody took the atti-
tude you do, there couldn't be any To-
cal newspaper. OF course we could
not get along without our daily papers,
because they keep us informed about
what's going on throughout the ma
ton and throughout the world, but
when you say that they take care Of
sticking close to facts. They simply
can't, and the publishers haven't any
personal interest in our community
the way our editor has.
81 have always felt that got value
received for every dollar I've paid out
in subscriptions to the local paper, and
| don't have an idea that running a
country newspaper is any more of a
weaith-producing proposition than run
ming a farm. SO long as I've got two
dollars I intend that the rural mail
carrier is going to tuck copy of the
home paper in my box every week"
That farmer knows that the COM
munfty newspaper is a necessity In
his home; that without 1t his home
would be incomplete and his part In
the community would be unsatisfactory
to himself and his family. He knows,
the full value of the local newspaper
as an institution.
