The newspaper is Argus-eyed it
sees everything knows every thing
records that which is worthy of re-
cording and the editorial sanctum
is often the safe repository and final
resting place of many a sordid and
unworthy story that never is permit-
ted publication
The newspaper is the intimate
friend of every citizen it knows
everybody It praises the good cen-
tures the evil and stands four-
square for the uplift and betterment
of the community
It greets the newest infant and
rejoices with the happy parents it
rings the wedding chimes and tolls
the knell of the departed It is joy-
ous with the happy and sad with
the sorrowful
It bears an intimate message in
every issue to those who have re-
moved from the old home town and
conveys news to the home-folk from
those who are away
And witlial it is never a scandal-
monger With fine discrimination it
differentiates news from gossip it
exploits the achievements ’ of men
and covers with silence their mis-
takes : '
It is the truest of friends for it
never fails to call attention to de-
fects ever at home and by holding
up the advantages of necessary im-
provements it encourages develop-
ment and progress
If a town were to check up its as-
sets chief among them would be its
newspaper It is the one valuable
common possession No matter who
qwns the stock of the company that
publishes it or who sits in the edi-
torial chair the newspaper belongs
to the people and in a very real
sense a town and its people may be
accurately judged by the kind and
quality of paper that is sent forth
If it is a live pushing forward-
looking publication the town lives
and moves forward If it is
spineless newspaper and without ' a
purpose except to sell subscriptions
and advertising space not much can
be hoped in the way of community
progress
‘What can a newspaper do for a
town?” It can do mere than any
one single agency to insure unity and
advancement With it in thriving con-
dition every industrial social and
moral movement is assured of effec-
tive leadership which makes for ac-
complishment jwithout it a town is
silent an ddead for silence however
golden is a sign of death
