Y., Aug 20 (P—A | good newspaper, read regularly and vith - discrimination, has been de- scribed as a source of happiness and the origin of a philosophy of life that will stand up. “It you would be happy, follow closely the news of the day,” de- clared Bdward McKernon, superin- t of the eastern division of the Associated Press, speaking at Old First Night in celebration of the 52nd- anniversary of the found- ng of the Chautauqua assembly. Contain Cold Facts of Life “Read and contemplate,” he said, for this is the beginning of wis- dom. The one institution that with- out equivocation or apology reflects human nature and presents to you the bare, cold facts of life is the daily press. You are not well in- formed nor patriotically equipped fer the duties of citizenship uniess sith diligence you follow succeeding events as they pass in review on the printed page. “The problem of our society is not the ignorance of the uninformed, bit the loose thinking of the mis- iformed. The man who does not thnk at all is a lesser liability. The ore who thinks but has not learned tothink straight is a soclal menace. We cannot think straight until we heve a comprehensive knowledge of 1Hngs as they are, and this is to be hdd only from the newspapers Make Masses Think “The intellectual independence of tle editorfal page has been estab- Jshed. The advertising columns ve been purified of that which was iitended to exploit. The Associated Tress was organized by newspapers » give their readers bare facts of fe and invite them to do their own hinking. The effect has been a so- ial triumph. Today the masses are hinking for themselves and natural- v there is a revolt against the fab- slous."” Road Conditions In Connecticut Road conditions and detours in Connecticut made ne- ry by highway construction and announced by the state ay department as of August 15th, is as follows brook, Winthrop road (route 175) one half mile is under con- struction, no detour. | Fuilford-Guilford cut off = (route 175) one-half mile is under con- struction, no detour.
