The Newspaper They All Like

teal methods of its daily routine
knows how to be silent without
Ignoring any aspects OF truth, that
insists upon keeping the individual
subordinate to the cause he repre-
sents, that stimulates the reader to
cogent thought and that holds men
and their consciences sternly to
the ineradicable distinctions be-
tween good and evil. Such a news
paper is IN the making in America.
1t will be the most potent single
force in realizing the dreams of
democracy.
The size of a newspaper does not
always insure it's excellence.
The question of emphasis may be
looked at from the standpoint of
the size of the newspaper. AS one
thinks of the newspapers of other
countries and of those in this
country, he is rather impressed
with the fact that there is a GER
tain weight to American news
papers. Even the London Times is
relatively small sheet, and when
you take up any of the other news
papers in England you will dis
cover that they are very small pub
LEGATIONS, and that the emphasis on
the news is extremely interesting.
Forty-five years ago the Sun made
It's record on a four-page paper,
and It's money, too. | don't mean
to say that papers should be much
smaller; | say from the point of
view of the consumer papers seem
sprawling and anonymous, and an
occasion Of despair, rather than
something a man enjoys.
And, finally, | like a newspaper
which holds it's readers to the
recognition that there is in the
universe a line and that on the one
side of it things are wrong, and on
the other side things are right;
that the American people will in
slst upon the recognition of moral
issues; and that selfish, aggressive
special interests that dominate the
people shall be attacked, just as the
official who stands for honesty shall
be supported. Theodore Roosevelt
was the one who really made this
true in American political life.

Issued Splendid Edition

Last weeks Tomahawk Leader
was issued by student editors from
the course Of journalism in the
University of Wisconsin. Sixteen
pages of mighty fine reading were
in that issue and the Osborn boys
did not touch a line of it. During
the middle of May, the American
Legion of Villas county will take
over the Villas County News for
one issue and come across with a
War History" something
directly out of the ordinary and
from what we have read in the
many feature articles it is more
than worth the effort. To use a
terse expression, it is damgood."
And we know what we are talking
about when it comes to special edi-
lions whether issued by the News
regular force or by some one else
under charge. Watch for the an
nouncement of the date it will be
published and give the Legion your
order for extra copies. 1t will be
on halftone. book, replete with illus
trations of our boys and places
where they fought in France. This
issue is entirely for Frederic Walsh
Post, American Legion of Villas
county.

Memories.

In memory of our mother, Bertha
T. Bake, who died April q, 1924:
When the Lord said you have
finished,
Come up higher, mother dear,
You have won a crown in Heaven
By your love and kindness here.
We remember well our sorrow
As we stood beside your bed,
Our deep and heartfelt anguish
When we saw that you were dead.
We miss your kind and willing
hand,
Your fond and earnest care,
Our home is dark, without you,
mother,
We miss you everywhere"

Just this week a fellow being
from one of the nearby towns in
Villas county dropped into the Villas
County News Office and delivered
himself something like this: q
can't understand why it is that
everything | want to sell from my
farm, sells like hot cakes when
advertise it in the News. Can you
tell me why, Menefee?"
Menefee told him; 1T is the
habit / have builded with my sub
scribers not to advertise anything
without a character; | do not ac-
cept anything and everything just
because there is a few pennies
coming in on it, but rather
would lose from that source and
know that my readers are not be-
ing clipped" by people who have
any old thing to sell. | really be-
lieve that in running a newspaper
you should keep its character UP
to a standard of truthfulness,
morality and independence, just
the same as you would have your
neighbor build a friendship with
you"
To back up my assertion | can
best state just how the Villas Coun-
ty News has worked itself from a
nondescript sheet to a weekly that
has the friendship and the backing,
and the support Of the better class
of truth-loving people; and | can
do that by printing the following
from the pen Of M. L. Burton, late
president Of the University of
Michigan. He says:
