Local Press
An American paper says :— Every year every local paper gives from one hundred to five thousand dollars in free lines for the sole benefit of the locality of the vicinity in which, it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The local editor, in proportion to his means, does more for his town than any other ten men, and in all fairness, man with man, he ought to.be supported, not because you may happen to like or admire his writing, but because the local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be brilliant or crowded with great thoughts, but financially, and yet on moral questions, you will find the majority of the localpapers on the right side of the question. Today the editors of local papers do the most work for the least money of anyone upon earth. Subscribe for and support by advertising in local papers not for charity, but as an investment.
