 eyer have that question asked you. and how did you answer if such is the case. Do you read the paper thoroughly, or do you merely glance over the local news items which are of particular interest to you? Did you ever stop to consider that there is much interesting news to be gain ed by reading the advertisements in your paper. you might consider that a portion of the paper non-essential. but such is not the case. regardless 0! what the item is that you read in ,the aaper there will come time when that article will be recall 1 ed to memory by some incident in later days. Sounds like 'bosh." does it not? But just the same such is the case.
 Did you ever have occasion to be talking to others and some one would turn the conversation into channels of which you were not
  to read thoroughly the interesting happenings of the world about you. if you have had such an incident to present itself to you then you will remember the embarrassment which you experienced when one of the party asked for your opinion on bod fn d dyy,If that you were not familiar with the subject, this was made doub!y hard for you because you realized that it was a question which every citizen should be conversant with. but which you had failed to do.
 The newspapers of the country to- day are the real educators of the nation, and have been recognized as such for many years. 'tis true there are some few papers throughout the nation which instead of publishing the news. attempt to bring before the public eye imaginary grievances of no consequence and which are more harmful than helpful. but that kind of paper is scarce and is generally recognized by the reading public as a publication of agitation with no good intended for any one. not ever the paper itself.
 Every good citizen is doing his country a service as well as him. self and family when he takes the home town paper and reads the pages from start to finish without emitting one single item. informa- tion is what the world thrives on. l by being familiar with what takes place in other parts of the world besides your immediate surround ings, you are fitting yourself for an emergency when you might be call | ed upon to take up abode in other locations of which you have read about and which you will find to your advantage every hour of the day.
 Not as a comparison, but as contrast. if you happen to know two persons, one who reads the news of the world with interest and one who cares nothing for what happens in other parts of the world. arrange to have those two persons meet and
 after starting conversation dror
 out yourself and note how quickly
 you will arrive at decision as tc
 which person is the superior 1T
 every way to the other.
 The schools and colleges Of tho
 country are the greatest preparator!
 Institutions known for fitting ont
 for the school of life, but with ou the newspaper the education of ths average person would be far in ar rears. READ THE NEWSPAPER
