THE LOCAL PAPER AND COMMUNITY
PROGRESS

By John F. Cunningham, President of Wisconsin
Agricuturist, Racine, Wis, in National Printer
Journalist.
There is clear and definite line of work for
the local newspaper whether it be daily, semi
weekly or weekly From no other source can the
intimate personal and business news of the small
town community be obtained
There was period during which the small
town newspaper seemed to be smothering under
the increasing circulation of the city dailes. Tie
city daily does not and cannot devote space to
matters Of immediate interest to the small town
and the surrounding country. We may say there
fore, that while in the great wall Of news that
confronts us from day to day, the large stones
and bricks will always be furnished by the city
daiies through the various news services that
cover the entire world, the chinks and the cement
will ever be furnished by the local, country papers
news from nearby the intimate heart-throbs that
come from the local business, social, civic and
home activities.
Every town owes it to itself to encourage
good, enterprising wide awake progressive news
paper. Such publications are worth far more to
the town than the town usually realizes By
supporting, / mean not only subscribing to the
paper and reading, it, but also helping it to get
the news by using it as a medium of public dis.
cussion and by patronizing its advertising
columns.
In too many instances the good local paper is
slider the act Of eating when meal time comes.
But the town which has no medium of local
news or for the expression of local opinion is
barren spot indeed. God pity it! What commun-
ity progress can be made with no vehicle of local
psblicity? What Community ideals and heart can
be promoted or maintained with no regular and
dependable organ to voice them? What COM
munity Sympathy and fellowship can be devel-
oped where there is no clearing house for the
heart-where there is no common parkway where
the myriad hopes and discouragements, joys and
heart-aches, successes and disasters may be
brought together and blended into that intangible
tho very real, thing or substance that we call
community spirit?
Every community feels the need for good,
level headed newspaper. It has its work clearly
defined for it and if it fulfills it's mission it
deserves the loyal support of the town and the
country round. Such paper can render in
valuable service in breaking down that foolish
but age old barrier between town and country by
keeping each class supplied with the point of view
of the other
After all. folks are about the same whether in
town or country, and the country roads are but
extensions of the city streets

Writer to Reservation
Kenneth l.. Roberts of the Saturday
Evening Post staff, his wife and
John Brown of the Phoenix Indian
school were in the city Monday night
en- route to various points on the
Hopi reservation. They plan to
spend several days visiting different
villages and gathering local color
Coming over the Santa Fe they en-
gagged Bill Ford's taxi to take them
on the reservation trip.

PEOPLE ENTITLED TO KNOW

In the discussion about the Teapot Dome and
California oil leases, there is one thing that
puzzles the average citizen and that is the failure
of everyone concerned to keep the oil-all the oil
for the navy.
It is the understanding of the average citizen
that the oil reserves were set aside for the navy
to meet great emergency. Oil had become the
navy's chief fuel It would continue to be the
navy's chief fuel for long period.
Along comes report that the reserves
being drained, and what happens? Not single
effort is made to protect this supply of oil OIL
The supply of oil in the earth is limited: there
is just so much of it. And when that is used up,
nature will supply no more.
The average citizen would like to know why it
is that the strongest power in the world was in
capable of protecting its resources.
In consideration for Daughertys objection to
quitting under fire, he might be allowed to dis
cover some other, though not less speedy method
of retiring from the cabinet

this time her problems are not
uppermost, she is just as much alive,
as full of new adventures, as ready
in an all-around friendliness as when
she was here before So the story
moves swiftly through scenes that
shift minute by minute through the
ready inventiyeness of this particu-
lar girl and the companions that fol-
low her lead. Something like a mys-
terry takes shape here, though, after
serving its turn i'm this respect, it
turns out to be no very great mys-
