NOUR HOME TOWN
A FINE OLD HOME PAPER
(Tune—A Fine Old English Gentleman.)
These magazines with gravures and
all these works of art,
Are very well for city folks who live
by dint of mart;
But give me first and foremost, I hold
it is the prime—
That fine old home town paper—one
of the good old time.
The printin’ isn't perfect, the Ink's
not uniform,
The type is set by hand perhaps, —
considerably overworn,
The dear old press—I know it well—
it's covered o'er with grime—
But It prints that old home paper
one of the gold old timé,
I look for it each week as regularly
it comes,
And when the postman brings it In, I
drop all other chums,
1 drink {it In, from start to fin, ridics
lous and sublime,
That fine old home town paper, one
of the good old time.
Smith's cat may have some kittens;
Jones is putting in new pumps,
My girl chum has got married and the
kids have got the mumps.
Jack Wiltsey's built a lean-to, John-
gon's roses upward climb
Oh! I love the old home paper, boys,
one of the good old time.

How many residents of any small
community have ever considered what
might happen if there were no pews
papers? Just previogs to “Sub
scribe for Your Home Town Paper
Week,” which is to be observed the
country over November 7-12, is a good
time to recall the plight of Macon,
Mo. not long ago, when fire put the
Chronicle-Herald out of business for
two weeks,
According to The Publishers’ Aux-
{liary, the old town crier, relic of
many years back, was yanked from
his hiding place, dusted off, and put
back on his job, with a jangling bell,
a megaphone, and a fog-horn volce only
a little worse for long disuse,
It may have been a novelty for two
weeks, But think of a community
without printers’ ink, compelled to get
its announcements of auctions, sales,
court sessions, births, marriages,
deaths, epidemics of sickness, dog or-
dinances, board meetings, commence
ments, tax notices, advertisements
of help and situations wanted, acci-
dents, and the rest, through a shouted
word llke that of the ordinary train
announcer in a city depot. The town
crier was a romantic figure in his day,
but few towns would like to return to
his ministrations now,
When one thinks of the temporary
plight of Macon, and that it might
become the permanent handicap of
many towns, It is well to think of sup-
porting the local paper, ,
He Knows Mis Folks,
Here are some random observations
of a man who has visited and studied
a good many small communities: If
you read your local paper you will
not miss much that is happening
around home. There is no use saying
that you wish your town had a paper
like one in the other town, for the
other fellow there Is saying the same
thing. The man who reads his local
paper thoroughly is usually a pretty
good citizen and has it all over the
fellow who does not. Loeal papers,
when all 1s sald and done, do more to
uphold the Institutions of this state
and country than any other known
contributing force in the world's work,

| From The Journal }
Mr, andjMrs. 5S. W. Gramley accom
panied C. E, Lykens to Philadelphia on
Wednesday will spend several days as
his guest in his new home,
Paul Musser, the professional baseball
pitcher who just closed the season with
the Wichita, Kas, club, arrived at his
home here Wednesday morning
Rev. F, H. Daubenspeck preached on
Sunday evening in the local church in
behalf of the $1,250,000 European relief
fund. The apportionment of the local
congregation was $100, and after a few
remarks by Dr. G, 8S. Frank a call was
made for contributions. There was a
liberal response, and when the total was
announced the quota was almost doubly
subscribed. The amount raised was
$195.
The school board held a meeting on
Monday evening when it was planned to
make settlement with A. J. Gephart,
acting for the Gephart estate, for the ex-
tra piece of land taken over by the board
for playground purposes, Mr.Gephart's
estimate of the value of the plot
placed at $1,050. The directors thought
the price exorbitant, and the. Centr:
county court will now be asked to ap-
point & board of viewers to assess the
was
damages.
