TROUBLE
The following letter by Mrs. Frans
A. Ericsson, of East Orange, N. J.,
the former Mrs. A. T. Fant of this
city, was submitted in the paper’s
January contest and received honor
able mention:
Why I Read The Chronicle
The Clinton Chronicle has been
coming to my home each week now
for twenty years and each week it is
received with a great deal of pleas
ure. If, for some reason, it does not
reach me here in East Orange on
Saturday morning, that day seems
incomplete.
When it became necessary for me
to leave Clinton ten years ago, I
took The Chronicle with me.
Throughout the years it has kept me
in touch with friends and former
neighbors. Through the medium of
its columns I have been able to share
their joys and their sorrows; to watch
the children grow to youijg man
hood and womanhood; and to follow
with interest the growth of the city.
To its readers in the city and sur
rounding communities I know The
Chronicle gives accurate information
through its advertisements. The
farmers and the shoppers get the in
formation they want and the house
wife finds out where her dollar will
go the farthest.
•The Chronicle strives to be a clean
newspaper, complete, newsy and re
liable—If you don’t get The Chron
icle you don’t get the news.
I have found these statements true
to the letter and maybe that is why
I have not yet been able to give up
my subscription to The Chronicle.
