'ocal pride, but as medium of all
vertising to the local merchants and
the dissemination of local news which
the dailies of our larger cities do not
carry in their columns. That this
community Is in need OF local paper
cannot be doubted, and yet there are
those who believe that country
newspaper can exist on good wishes
and free tickets and we want to as
| sure them that such is not the fact.

ready to take up any fight for JUS

interest to get behind their local paper
and push it, help increase the circula.
