SEND HOME PAPERS TO BOYS IN THE TRENCHES

Lard Northcliffe, publisher of the London Times, the London Daily Mail and scores of other papers and magazines, says it is not the big dailies that the boys in uniform want. “What they want,” he declares, “is the home paper, the local, which tells who was at the church social, who has been married, and which team won the game. “Send the home paper to the boy at the front. All news is news until it is read. What matter if the paper is old when it reaches him. He will enjoy is just the same.”
