Does it Hit LISP

"A town is judged by its streets,
it's hotels, its newspapers, it's
churches, its schools, its public
buildings, its yards, its vacant lots.
"A stranger coming into town
for the first time may have very
little opportunity of coming into
contact and getting acquainted
with the people Of that town, but
he feels that he can form a pretty
fair opinion Of them, nevertheless,
by what he can see as he walks or
rides about.
1T is a curious fact that towns
Of all sizes from the tiny hamlet to
the great city have distinct char
acteristics Of their own, and this
though they may be situated side
by side in the same region and pop
ulated by people Of practically the
same ancestry.
1T is difficult to say where a
town gets its character, from its
earliest inhabitants, from certain
small, apparently unimportant, top
ographical features, from incidents
in it's early history or from what,
but certain it is that one town
differs from another in spirit just
as much as in physical appearances.
And the spirit of every town ex-
presses itself pretty much through
the things mentioned in the first
paragraph-the streets, the hotels,
the public buildings, the newspap-
ers, the churches, the schools, the
yards and the vacant lots" Super

The Southern Newspaper Pub
fishers association at a meeting held
recently, in Asheville, N. c., adopt
ed a code Of ethics based on the
presumption that a newspaper
first duty is to print the news,
honestly and fairly, unbiased by
any other consideration.
Among the points made in the
code we're these:
Recognizing honest differences
of opinion exist, we may vigorously
maintain our own position without
denouncing others as dishonest and
unfair"
'Decercy should be the guiding
star in the printing Of news, edi-
torials, advertising and all feature
articles or illustrations.
is it fit to print and to be read
by my own mother?" should be
the real test rather than will it
sell more papers?'
consideration for the unfortu-
nate and for guiltless victims of
the faults of Others"
No story justifies needless dam
age to good reputation nor wan
ton pain to an innocent"
Respect and tolerance for those
Of different religions, races and cir
cumstances of life
Honesty in all dealings, whether
with readers, advertisers, employees
or competitors"
Truth first, last and always"
