It is to the interest of every town to support a good newspaper, asys the Atlanta Constitution, not through local pride alone, but foi .ractical business reasons. A aewspapper is constantly doing tat timoes as much for its own town a it could hope to get pay for-mor than it could charge for if it would The more prosperous a newspa per is the more it is liable to dc Show us a good weekly paper fullo live local ads, with a general cit culation throughout the country and we will show you an uostc date prosperous progressive com munity. Show us a community that pst sistently proceds on tha idea tha the editor of the home paper ca live on the "pil' that accumulate in the office, whose official bodie think it a waste of public mone: to throw him a bit of public print ing occasionally at living prices whose citizens have come to re gard it as one of their inalienabli rights to work him for long-wind, ed obituary notices and in memori, ams with three inches of hymt book poetry st the end, to sal nothing about an occasional notic( of a lost cow or some cottonseed sale, and we will show a communi, ty that is living from hand t( mouth, and is always living on th4 rugged edge of adversity. Peoph ought to stop to think about thee< things, It is an inmportant matter It is their own good that is involv, ed, the welfare and progress of their community, therefore of themselves. A local paper is absolutely nec essary to any community. No merchant, no grand jury, no town council that spends' every year all it can afford with the home pa per, whether the expenditure is absolutely necessary or not, makes a wiser, more profitable invest. ment. They are not "giving" the home paper something. On the contrary, it is earning every cent it gets, and more, providing it is i paper worth picking up in th, road. And if it isn't that sort of a pa per it is usually the fault of th< towm in which it is published.. Press and Printer. FAILIED.
