We have not infrequently heard
complaints from our sister towns
Newellton and Waterproof-of lack
of news in the Gazette from those
towns. Unhappily we must plead gull
ty 10 the justice Of this complaint.
The Gazette regrets its inability to
cover the field Of news beyond the
daily route Of its publisher. Perhaps
Is many Of the happenings Of the
town. Of st. Joseph are omitted -
are. published. Maybe in some cases
it is better 30. The Gazette ID always
glad to get news for ito readers. We
want to publish all the news that b
deserving Of the name and while It
is news, but we can't do % when We
don't know it. II some Of our New
elton and Waterproof friends would
give Us the happenings In these
towns it would be . pleasure to ~
to publish, but unlike Tucker Gibson
we can't invent news. The Gazette
las both q post-offioe box and . tele-
phone, we can be reached BY mail or
by wire and it ID perhaps unnecessary
to say that We are ut the service Of
our patrons.
