the radio. But the youth of to- day knows little of what con- stituted the store of knowledge of the youth of yesterday.
 The omniscience of youth in every era is ever amazing, but that of today would be inex- plicable but for one thing more than all others. That is adver- Using. In the newspapers, mag azines and poster boards chil- dren are finding a vast store- house of practical and useful information and instruction. The value of this incidentally acquired knowledge can not be measured in classroom hours. The youth of America is finding that advertising pays it.
 Psychologists have expounded the theory that truths are sometimes observed first by the adolescent. In the case of ad- vertising it may truthfully be said that there are some of: mature age who have not yet learned the value of advertis- ing. Advertisers do not buy newspaper, magazine and bill board space for the edification of the public, either juvenile or adult, but they recognize che children of today are not only a potent factor in the business of today but the de- ciding factors in the business of tomorrow.

Spring is one of the neutral seasons of the year. The other is fall. Winter has its irrecon- cilables and summer it's rank partisans, but spring strikes a happy medium. You can dread winler and adore summer or you may have 8 preference for winter over summer and re- :ain a warm regard for the intermediate seasons.
 Those who are reminded by spring of the hot weather to come should find solace in the thought that the coal man must live on his interest for six months and those who are concerned over the wear and tear the new balloon tires must soon undergo have the conso- lation that the strain on the rugs and furniture at home will be relieved.

A TOWNS BEST BOOSTER.

A writer in a current maga- zine observes eff the newspap- CT is just a little better than it's town, the latter is the gainer thereby"
 Towns and their newspapers usually lag or lead together. Progressive journalism is the unfailing tonic of the lethargic community, but it is equally true that a lifeless newspaper may seriously retard the devel- opment of it's community.
 There is no better community asset than home newspaper equal t0 the needs of the com munity. While poor news paper is better than none to the individual reader, that does not hold true for the town.
 What can a good newspaper do for it's community? It can serve as the towns messenger to the outside world. It must take the leadership in all com munity projects if they are to be successful. It is the infallible line of communication between local government and citizen. It is to the newspaper that all organizations turn for assist ance in public welfare move ments and without that assist ance they face failure.
 The newspaper reaps the re- ward of it's initiative by shar- ing in the general improve ment of business and commun- ity affairs it has been instru- mental in bringing about. The good newspaper deems it a pleasure to serve it's commun- ity and its readers and is fully aware that it is only through giving a full measure of ser vice that it can progress and prosper.
