 The "Sun" considered its station as a means for promoting civic pride on a national stage, and the newspaper reasoned that letters coming in from distant locations meant that listeners would probably be interested in the city that produced such entertaining programming.In March 1923, Fred G. Neuman, author of "The Story of Paducah" and "Paducahans in History" presented a program about Paducah as "that gem in diadem of American cities…", and the show's script was re-printed in the paper.It was about this time that the "Sun" started printing portions of listeners' letters in the paper.
