Oar local Wild Life League went on a picnic Saturday, and I went along to cover it for the Clarion. Monday, folks kept stopping me, and saying: “Must have gotton out of hand, that picrite!” , “Nonsense,” I says. “It was mighty pleasant and congenial. Just beer and hot dogs, cheese and cider.” And then they show me the deadline reading: “WILD WIFE PICNIC HUG SUCCESS.” Os course it was Elmer, my typesetter. who had made the misprints: But is my face red! It’s only be-

BLOCK VBGES PRESS TO LKAD CIVIC PLANNING A newspaper's responsibilities and privileges in relation to civic planning and the future of the community were defined by William Block, president and publisher of the Pittsburg. Pa.. PostGazette. at a recent Pennsylvania press conference held under joint auspices of the Pennsylvania Newspaper Publishers Association and the journalism department of Pennsylvania State College. In the course of his talk. Mr. Block took issdh with statements in the report on “A Free and Responsible Press.” In which the late William Allen White was credited with having said “newspapers have veered from and purveyors of news" hnd have become “commercial enterprises.” In part. Mr. Block said: 3-Fold Mission * “The mission of a newspaper in relation to civic planning and the future of its community is. as 1 see it. a five-fold mission: “First—to acquaint the people of the community with conditions as they exist. “Second—to acquaint them with what other communities are doing in the field of civic planning. “Third—to awaken them to the possibilities of their city. “Fourth —to create within the people the civic pride which will eventually turn these possibilities into realities. “Fisth —to fight through a program once it has formulated. “It seems to me that this fivefold mission is all within the province of a newspaper’s role as the purveyor and interpreter of news. The newspaper can therefore assume a leading role in civic planning without going beyond the bonds of its normabfunctions. Mrs. Lottie Brown and Miss Edith Olds, of Hinkley, Ohio, were guests from Thursday until Monday of Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Babcock. Mr. and Mrs. Chester Babcock and son, Dennis, and George Gerbin. of Bear Lake, Mich., were guests Sunday and Monday in the Babcock home. Mr. and Mrs. Babcock and daughter. Lucile, and their guests attended the Babcock family reunion at Burr Oak. Mich.. Sunday. Mr and Mrs. Charles McClintic. of Warsaw, spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Harold Bassett.

cause folks are ao temperate and well-behaved in our town, that they could afford to take the whole thing as a joke. From where I eit, even a newspaper editor’s entitled to a few mistakes. And since I reported that they served a moderate bev- . erage like beer, I’m sure nobody thinks the picnic was the least bit wild, or anything but a huge success—and I mean huge!
