ARMISTICE DAY.

-Hrp
 Three years ago tomorrow, Nov ember 11th, the people of this town were awakened from their sleep at an early hour in the morning, by the blowing of horns, ringing of bells, etc. Men walked and rode about the streets proclaiming the glad news of the signing of the armistice. Every one was happy and not one word of criticism was heard because of the unusual awakening. The thought predominated the minds of our people that at last "our boys" were coming home.
 Through a proclamation, by the President and our Governor, the day hes been declared legal holiday, much to the satisfaction of the ma ibrity of the people. 1t aas been made a holiday tha5 we rlay fttincly honor these Y ho marched forth in the crvice of orr country, whether now living or dead, for each and every man stood ready to go where duty called him.
 Let US pause then, from our vari- ous occupations on this day and do some act that will let these men now living, know that we still appreciate their efforts, that we are glad the hand of Providence drew them back from the bloody fields of battle and delivered them safe home to us. Go to the house of God, "egardless of your religious affiliations, for a few brief moments and offer a silent prayer to the Great Peacemaker for
 His intervention with Death and for the peace which we again enjoy.

TIME TO BUILD.

1t is good news indeed that comes from Torrington, to the effect that the Hotchkiss Lumber Co.,, have started working nights. This means that people have started building again. By people" we mean those who erect houses in which they ex- pect to live or for some one else to live in. During the war much build ing was being done, principally by manufacturing concerns and as turn about is fair play, it would seem that the time has now come for the man who has long desired home.
 The average person when asked why they did not build, gave their reason as the high price of all build ing material. This is no longer an excuse, for the price of lumber is probably as cheap today as it ever will be. In this connection let us say that the freight per thousand feet of pine from the Pacific coast to New York, is about $45-the price we used to pay for the lumber delivered at our door. Knowing this, also that the lumber supply is being depleted at an alarming rate, we see no req son for longer delaying that building program.
 Lumber is only small part of the cost of building and wages paid to carpenters, plumbers and other me- chanics, must be seriously considered The law of supply and demand has regulated to no small extent the price of material and it will also regulate the price of labor per hour. But from all appearances it would seem that the time has practically arrived when one can build with the assurance that they are not paying more than will be asked several years hence.

does not permit the love of their birthplace to die away"
 For the news of the world, and for the news of the community in which one lives, it is a necessity that one subscribe to the local paper. For only through this medium can one secure the news of immediate in
 crest while it is still "news". But
 h1@e is still another angle of infor- .~oticn worth reading carefully and ~ ne:stently, that is the old home paper.
 III this land of opportunity there ure many who have moved away s.om the scene of early years-tne
 d town and community grows dim

The u1cstion arises as to the present name and condition of the dainty pig tailed miss who held ones heart in the hollow of her hand during the amourous days of schooldom. One wonders which of the patriarchs are now alive and active and which have passed on to the great reward.
 To all these wonderments there is the answer-the periodical letter from the old home-the daily or weekly newspaper which chronicles the doings of the folks you used to know. Before one has entirely grown apart from the memories of earlier days-before the past be- comes moss encrusted and rusty before the days of yesteryear are befogged and obliterated there is still opportunity to renew the days of memory's brightest hue.

THE NEWSPAPER.


 One of the most>Semarkable men of New England is Marcus H. Rogers of Mill River, Mass. In the news- paper world and among editors he has long been recognized as the dean of the present type of editor. As a matter of fact he published the first newspaper in the United Sttaes.
 This may seem to be an erroneous statement of fact, for papers were published many years before Mr. Rogers made his youthful attempt with the Rising Sun back in n8ol. However, the papers up to that time had been views papers rather than newspapers. They were founded upon the assumption that the public required a certain amount of liter ary enlightenment and quite con- siderable amount of guidance as to how people should think. They re- fected, largely, the opinions of the editors rather than making any at- tempt at disseminating news.
 In 1862 MT. Rogers assumed the managerial direction of the Berkshire Courier at Great Harrington. The paper was losing proposition and in his effort to keep the publication from passing to the great beyond en- tirely every effort was made to find means of stimulating the public in- terest. Quite by accident MT. Rog- CTS printed an eight line item lbout a party of young people going over the mill dam in row boat. That eight line item changed the trend of American journalism, for the nter- est manifested in the news" fea- ture planted the germ of thought in the editors brain. It was the be- ginning of the newspapers function of acquainting the public with the happenings of the community in which it was published.
 Soon afterward Mr. Rogers ar ranged for items of local interest from the communities surrounding Great Burlington, and with their publication the Courier took on a new live and travelled the highroad tC prosperity.
 During the early months of !he experiment q most dignified citizer of Great Burlington censured the editor for his publication of trivia items concerning the doings o1 people living whereabouts. MT Rogers reply sounded the real value of such publicity. He said, "Fol the small amount two dollars I an able to supply you with newspape1 telling of the doings of your neigh bors-to print the sort of a oape. you wish, I would have to charge yol two thousar1 dollars. But your de sire in this relation weighs but littl as compared with the hundreds O former residents of Great Harrington and the surrounding country.

FROM THE PEOPLE
Canaan, Conn. November 9th, 1921.

Canaan, Conn.
 November 9th, 1921. To the Editor of the Connecticut Western News, Canaan, Conn.
 Permit me the space to call the attention of the Canaan people to what seems to me unfair and unjust treatment by the North Canaan Water Company both toward the Canaan Fire District and to the GUS toners using the water. am in- formed that the Water Company is paid about $350. per month by the Railroad Company for water used for its locomotives and special effort is exerted by the Water Company to see that this supply is taken care of. 1t would seem as though the health of the community and the extremely dangerous fire risk ought to be of greater concern to this Company than their worry over whether or no locomotive on the railroad is sup piled with water. In other words it appears that the Water Company has made a contract both with its custo- mers and with the Fire District to supply water (even collecting from it's customers in advance) and if there is to be a scarcity in water the

Your Home
 Town Paper

Do you want Canaan to be recognized as the most pro- gressive community in this section of Connecticut? Of course you do.
 Communities are meas ured by the newspapers printed in them.
 A live newspaper is an in- dication ofHa live community. Dead communities usually have dead newspapers.
 A live newspaper prints all the news.
 But, a newspaper cannot print all the news without the assistance of the pro- gressive members of the community.
 This is YOUR newspaper the indicator of the pro- gress of your town. It is the standard by which other communities measure our worth.
 Help us give the news ALL THE NEWS.
 What is news?
 Anything that has hap pened or is about to happen. Has some one been born? Been married?
 Gone away?
 Come back again?
 Gotten into trouble?
 Or out?
 Had a party?
 Built a home?
 Bought a farm?
 Raised a good crop?
 Been successful?
 Or unfortunate?
 Been to college?
 Been promoted?
 Done something funny?
 Or sad? Had an accident?
 Been sick?
 Gotten we'll? Changed position or oc- cupation?
 Gone into new business? Sold out?
 Made enough money and retired?
 Died?
 Folks are interested in other folks. That is the thing that makes life worth the living. This would be a sad old world if our neighbors were not interested in the things we are doing.
 You like to know of the doings of your friends.
 They like to know about ! you.
 All these things are "news".
