ECONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE AND SERVICE OF THE AMERICAN NEWSPAPER AND NEWSPAPER ADVERTISING—From /atest volume in Manhattan Library of Popular Economics, republished in serial form through courtesy of Bank of the Mankatian Company, New York. SERVING THE COMMUNITY INE cannot travel about the country without be- 7He) ing struck by the great individuality ofitscities, [jj \Y) big and little. If there is anything which distin- ff} segs! guishes the average American, it is his aggres- Ae | sive loyalty to his own home town. Therefore, it is not astonishing to find that every community, save the very smallest, has at least one voice—the voice of its newspaper. There are near!y 14,000 such voices in 10,000 different communities, and in their prineed columns the spirit of each place { is expressed. ‘These columns focus shat may be called the accumulated town purpose in realizing local ambi- tions. Whatever they may be, it is through the news- paper that knowledge of community purposes is dis- seminated and ideas are unified, Thus, while most vocations are more or less private, newspaper publishing is necessarily charged with a public interest. This has been true from the earliest days, When one of the first papers in the then (1804) wilderness of Indiana made its bow, the @jtor stated its object to be “‘to collect and publish such information as will give a correct account of the production and nat@ral advantages of the territory.” In other words, he proudly proclaimed himself a “booster.” although the word had not yet come into yogue. This ideat persists cod expresses itself in making the paper not merely a chronicler pt news, but also a leader in organized movements for comunity bes: terment. For example, in one town a public-spirited ediror labored for to awaken his city from the spirit of apathy that cnecked ail pro: This town was lagging far behind in civic| Belt deyores co! advancement, its” Were poor, its|sideration of antiquated, its business sectionjers.
