Feeewoes SIDELIGHTS: By MARCY B. DARNALL, Former Editor of The Key West Citizen een - It may be strange news to many, es- pécially in the North, to know that in Ala- bama there is one Republican nominee for the state legislature who will have no op- position. He is J..G. Posey of Haleyville, against whom=the: Democrats entered no oupenpHt in the' recent primaries. Harry Forsythe of Pittsburgh asserted his vight to dispose of anything portable around his home and got away with it. He took three of his wife’s chickens and a ham and traded them for whiskey.

Mr. Wood’s temper had manifested itself immediately after she had trumped his ace at bridge. : Gabriel Valentine of Manila induced ; a-woman to part with $8,000 on the strength of his declaration that he pos- sed supernatural powers whereby he could produce gold from land to be pur- chased with the money. Being unable to impress the judge with his mysterious po- | tehcy, Gabriel drew a six-year sentence. = Not that it matters especially, but a bifgrapher of General’ Pershing relates | that the leader of the A.

Asked to play for a fashionable musicale, he placed his fee at. $5,000, but when the hostess told him he would not be expected to mingle with the! guests he reduced it to $1,000, ce | publications. WHY A COMMUNITY NEWSPAPER? (Ww. Mills, Hanover, Mich.) Theodore Roosevelt was once. asked, during a friendly discussion of relative | which he would ‘consider most essential to his wel- } value, to name three things fare should he be marooned.on an_ un- inhabited island. His answer was significant when he said:. “First, I would most desire my family, | Second my home-town newspaper. Third, | | my gun,” The fact that his home-town news- ‘paper came secohd in importance to his; family speaks volumes for. that institution and it is not.altogether strange that a per-; son with Roosevelt's perception of values | should make this choice. The community newspaper is essen- tially a serial history and biography, com- | | bined, of the people and events in the ter- ritory which it serves. —or retrogression—is unconsciously por- trayed. seriber which is entirely absent in urban those whom the.advertiser serves. peal is not so much one of “better gains” and “cut prices” as it is of friend- ship, cemented by years of pleasant and constructive community association. His : | advertisements are a message from one: friend to another. It is the function of the community, in addition to the dissemina- tion of news. tion the furtherance of all with equal determination that detrimental. opinions expressed by expert and reader, alike. which is! The community newspaper occupies a | traditional place in the existence of its; home town parallel in importance to the ) sehool and the church. It is an _ integral part of the realization of pioneering effort to constructive living, the mouth-piece of an enterprising and progressive, element of national life. The spirit of neighborliness | is engendered by the familiarity with which | it treats its family of readers; its flexible | same / editorial policies permit of the reportorial treatment of the news of twin calves born to Bill Jones’ cow as is given to , news of world-wide importance. And the peeks fine editorial discrimination compells the absence’ of news in its columns which | cz directs ‘unfavorable attention to a member |** ‘u! The story is told of a recent June of ite circle. | By close adherence to a policy which | is dictated by a philosophy peculiar to rural society, the community newspaper an indispens- able part of the rural civic plan. scribers enjoy a sense of proprietorship; a feeling which is shared by the average home-town editor. It is the tie which binds the common interest of John Brown, who operates the corner store, with that of Jim | White, who maintains a fine herd of Jer-| seys on his farm three miles south of town. | By its influence the community spirit of | om intimate | news is made available to those far re-! interdependence is promoted, moved from childhood associations, and threugh its sympathetic knowledge of com- munity affairs it has become a vital neces- sity to all community programs of pro- gress, Your community newspaper needs you—you need your community news-| paper!
