THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER

Turning from the newspapers to small town
press exchanges that come to the EDITORS desk Is
like stepping from the sums full of vice, into an
old-fashioned garden sweet with lavender and
thyme and the scene of perennial flowers. The
pages of the big dailies so full of murder,
thevery immortality and selfishness that the better
news is obscured by these glaring shatterings of
the Decalogue. One puts the papers aside with a
feeling of depression and heartache that the world
is so full of terrible and unhappy things.
Then picking up the papers that record the hap
penings of the little towns around us, one gains
renewed faith in life. Here are set forth only that
which uplifts communicative activities of the
businessmen, the church items, the happy social
gatherings of the people, the marriages, births and
deaths, farmers items, and all the thousand and
one daily occurrences that make up the simple an
mails of the great common people who are really
the foundation of this broad country of ours.
Sometimes people speak lightly of the country
newspaper, but it is one of the most potent and
uplifting factors in our national existence.-The
Christian Science Monitor.
