THE ANIMATED WEEKLY IN ADDITION.

Morocco Courier Changes Editors on April 12th. L. Paris Builta, who has published ' The Morocco Courier for several years, has sold the paper to W. H. Myers, of Macy, Ind., who will take charge on April 12th. The new owner is a newspaper man of long experience. He owned a paper at Macy, where he helped start a bank and was one of the directors. He is a member of the methodist church and his family consists of his wife, son and his mother. Brother Builty has greatly improved the Courier during his ownership, having put in much new material and erected a building in which the office is located. He has been a publicspirited citien and during his residence there he caused to be erected three brick business rooms and also improved his residence property. He is retiring from business under the most favorable conditions as his wife’s father has just presented them with a fine, fertile farm of 244 acres in Drange county. This year’s crop and all the farming implements and stock are included in the gift. That is enough to make any editor quit the business. The fraternity in this neighborhood will hope that he enjoys the same measure of success as a farmer that he has as a publisher and expect him to do so. Mr. Builty came to Morocco as h preacher, bought the Courier and turned editor and now while still a young man becomes a farm owner and manager. He is a democrat in politics and has received a considerable part of the le'gal printing of Newton county. He describes the new editor as “a tall man, a two-story man.”
