E. J. Garner, who for the

Mr. Munger and has retired from
the newspaper work at Perry to
engage in the real estate busi-

Clipper at Coyle. We have often
wondered whether or not the
readers of the Sentinel endorsed
Editor Garner's partisan policy.
We do not believe there was one
issue of his paper that he did not
lambast Republicans and laud
Haskell and Jack Love and their

never publish names of writers

safe to send in neighborhood

even if it is only one item. The
State Journal wants news writers
from every school district in
north Logan county, and will
make liberal provisions for writ-

• HERE 1 LIVE; HERE I BUY.
In a recent issue of the Des
Moines Register and Leader the
commercial page published the
creed of one loyal spirited boost-
er who gives good reasons why
one should support the home
merchant.
"I buy at home
"Because my interests are here
"Because the community that
is good enough for me to live in
is good enough for me to buy in.
"Because I believe in trans-
acting business with my friends.
"Because 1 want to see the
goods.
"Because I want to get what I
buy when I pay for it.
"Because my home dealer
the man I buy from is here with
the kindly greeting, his words of
cheer and his pocketbook, if need
be."
"Here I live and here I buy."
Heading the Off Newspaper.
The Council Grove, Kansas,
Guard is one of the ideal papers
in Kansas, and has made good
long ago, we suppose, but accord-
ing to its one story there are
undermining agencies at work:
"An elderly woman displayed a
wonderful knowledge of what is
going on in the town was asked
which of the home papers she
read. 'Nuther one' she replied.
'I just ask the milkman and the
grocery boy what is going on'
and they reel it off by the yard.
You see they have got the ad-
vantage of the papers—they give
you the news the same day it
happens. More than that, they
tell you what the papers aint got
nerve enough to print."
Church Advertising.
At Grand Junction, Colo., Rev.
G. A. Monroe, pastor of the First
Congregational church, ordered
regular paid advertisements in
in the newspaper. He says this
is to compete with saloons and
halls. On bargain days he will
insert bargain day ads. His
church has been well attended at
all services.
