diately after the ceremony the

The public have little apprecia
tion of the value of well conducted
local newspapers. Their offices
of beneficence to the community
are so common that they are un
noted, but none the less no town
or city can advance without its
newspapers are in the forefront of
its advancement. They are the
life of the community. They
must lead in every effort to invite
capital, enlarge industries and en
thuse the people in the use of their
advantages.
