Cori tl einon, Thure d ay, June 3. Safe Ti n To. Tie To! By MOO& Opinions differ as to when the first newspaper y advertisement was print ed. Some say an old sheet supposed to have been published in 1591 and now on file in the British Museum deserves the honor. At any rate, news paper advertising has a wonderful history. It is today one of America's most important lines of business. No one knows exact ly how much is spent yearly in newspaper ad vertising in the 21,000 papers in America. Per haps $500,000,000. Some corporations spend $1,000,000 each. Newspaper advertis ing is worth while. We hope none of our readei think we are not giving then enough war news. We coul fill the paper every week wit] so-called war news and afte you read it all you would nc know as much about it as Yo do now, as every day the "news from one side contradicts tha from the other side and neithe can be depended upon. A lo of people are getting killed ove there and from all reports bot sides are winning. When any thing else happens we will le you know.
