The Newspaper - fl Servant To You

This week is National Newspaper W’e’k We are happy to consider ourselves a part of our communities through the newspaper which serves you. What is a newspaper? This question is one that could be answered in many different ways, probably as many ways as people who would take the time to tell you what they consider a newspaper Regardless of the fact that we are a small weekly newspaper, we have a job to do the same as the New York Times, the Chicago Tribune or another large newspaper. Our goals are considerably - different than theirs XX^.jjave . the job of giving to you thq ' local news of our area. We are not interested in the national scene, the political campaigns, the space program, and so forth, on a day to day basis. This informat i >n is supplied currently . to you by the metropolitan newspapers who print maybe not just once a day. hut several editions a day to keep up to date the happenings immediately as they happen. We want to give to you the local news of our towns Where the Smiths had dinner Sunday is something you wouldn’t find in a large, daily, but is is important to us because many of our readers like to read this type of news. A new fire truck for th^ town is more important to our line of business than a satellite circling the world or on its way to the moon. The story of the fifth grade in school making decorations for Halloween, or the progress of the high school football team is wore our line than Mickey Mantb and Whitey Ford’s progress n the World Series The fact that John Brown has a usee bicye’e for sale, or what the local Supermarket is featurirg this week end. is our livelihood. Much of our success depends on you. Yes. you alone can make your news item available to us. thus making our newspaper more complete for our area of a limited circulation\ln our area are many churches, clubs, civic organizations, veterans' groups and so on. and they are the ones that interest

We would like to sell a paper to everyone to help serve them A newspaper can be a real servant to its community Where else can you find the advertisements of the local merchants who also are trying to serve you?

This is our way of serving you. The freedom of the press is one asset that we take for granted. What would you do if there were no newspapers or only the information that a very few individuals wanted you to b lieve Consider the people in the Detroit area There has been a newspaper strike in that city for over two months It effects every way of life The businesses of the Detroit area figure their retail losses as over one million dollars a day because of the strike Even their baseball team's attendance was considered down heavily, due to the fact that since the. early July dates, there has been no sports nows for the people to read. National news must come over the radio and TV and this certainly isn't as complete as through the evening newspaper Wo strive to give you every opportunity to express vourself through our columns You can help us as we have a deadline to meet, by Irving to meet our deadline as well Ev ■" r v once in awhile, we are forced to leave some news out and run it later as we simply cannot throw on another page like the presses that run in many thousands of dollars necessary for the large papers, do. Tn such efforts as this, your cooperation and understanding is appreciated, but most of all. we ask your help in making our product a better and more interesting servant for you.

is the responsibility of the parents to keep their kids out of trouble but it would be safe to bet no parent of any of these young persons doing this type of thing the past several nights knew where their children were or with whom.

A few can sp ul this time of th«* year for everyone through their disrespect and foolishness.
