OUT OUR WAY
Good Neighbors
Bacfe in the old days in the country, a family
were considered good neighbors if they wore friend
ly in a social way, and kind and helpful in times of
trouble. A great deal of wonderful service used, to
be rendered by people to their neighbors, and is still,
in any place where the right spirit prevails.
But the feeling as to what constitutes a good
neighbor 1ms changed quite a little of late years.
That is ^jiecially true in progressive towns, where
people are much affected by the things their neigh
bors do.
In sucli a community-, if it is reported that a
man is going to sell his house, the neighbors feel
anxious as to who is coming in there. They ask
whether the new owner will be a good neighbor or
not And that question does not relate so much to
whether he will be social, and kind and helpful in
times of trouble, as to how he is going to behave
in regard to his property.
A family may be very friendly and helpful in
the good old fashioned neighborly way, but if they
keep their home place in a slovenly manner, if the
house and grounds look run down and decadent, they
have an unfavorable effect on the neighborhood.
Their personal friendliness is no substitute for the
harm they do through creating a depressing effect
on the appearance of the locality. Their kind and
friendly words do not seem to go very far, if they
are creating » blot on the street by neglectful in
dolence,
The people iu & fine town like Ashland have
much to do to keep up this spirit of modern neigh
borliness. This calls not merely for smiles and hand
shakes and frequent calls and conversation over the
back yard fence, but it demands that everyone
contribute hia part toward the fine appearance of
his neighborhood and his community.

sionflFof Correction Wallis,
Power of Printer’s Ink
The printing and publishing industry in this
country b going ahead, at a most astonishing rate.
Aeoerding to the oensus bureau, the product of this
industry amounted in 1925 to $2,269,630,280, which
was a gain of 12 per cent over 1928. As the country
made remarkable gains in business and production
in 1926 over 1925, it seems likely that the printing
business increased at least as much.
At the rate shown above, it seems reasonable to
suppose that the industry will register an increase
during the 1920-30 decade, of at least 75 per cent,
and it may have doubled or more.
It is doubtful if the population of the United
States increases during the present decade more than
12 to 15 per cent, so that the printing business is
advancing at a rate far beyond the gain in popula
tion.
The people are rushing hither and thither
for their business and pleasure, but wherever they go
the newspaper is eagerly read. They can not rest
content until they know what has happened in
tlie world. Where years ago they usually read
only one newspaper now they read several or many
of them.
Forceful newspaper writing is very effective ia
shaping publie opinion. But even where )>eople do
not consciously borrow their opinions from news-
paiiere, they obtain these ideas from the back
ground of impressions that life makes on their
minds, and these impressions are largely, influenced
by newsp&|>er reading.
The business world realizes that printer’s ink
is an indispensable element in its labors. By this
great j>ower it conveys the news of its doings to the
l>eople, and informs them how they can best supply
their needs. The popular mind responds promptly
to such enterprise, nad gives generous support to
those whose initiative and service is set forth in
planter’s ink. -
