National Newspaper Week
Newspaper throughout the land re observ
ing their own week, October 1-8, during which
time mention of the newspaper' place in the
community is being given prominence in special
article and editorials. It is a period in which ed
itors are granted the privilege of tooting their
own horns without undue censure from their
readers. It is not an easy task for most editors
and publishers to sing their own praises and it is
not the intent of the press to regale Me reading
public with a long list of tccmplisliiTients other
than to show the part that is heir.; played in the
elfare and progress of the community.
During the current year the Gazette Times
has worked for and seen accomplished comple
tion of the financing for a county- hospital. We
have advocated sodding and lighting the Rodeo
grounds and although an opportunity to have the
grassing done was rejected, we still think it
should be done and shall devote more space to
that cause in the future. Support has been given
the proposed flood control dam an improve
ment offering almost unlimited development
possibilities for the Willow creek valley, and with
pardonable pride we mention the fact that this
newspaper was one of the prime movers for di
rect highway connection with Monument, a move
ment which has developed interest on both sides
of the mountains and, we hope, will command
the attention of the state highway commission.
This newspaper has supported the city govern
ment in its efforts to obtain a more adequate wa
ter supply, for stceet improvements and other mat
ers of public welfare. All of which is the function
of a newspaper, as well as to oppose those things
not deemed essential or not worth the price they
might cost.
Many newspapers are holding open house to
give the public an opportunity to learn some of
the "makings" of a newspaper. The Gazette
Times wishes to extend an invitation to any of its
readers who have not had the privilege of seeing
the paper in the process of formation to visit the
plant Monday evening, October 7, at which time
the "force" will demonstrate some of the prin
cipal steps. (We will be working after supper
anyway.)
A Charter for Rural Education
Another "day" has been added to the calen
dar, one in which every citizen is vitally inter
ested, for the purpose of its designation is to
bring to the attention of the public the vital im
portance of our rural schools. The day is designa
ted "Rural School Charter Day" and Friday, Oc
tober 4 is the date. It is sponsored by the Nation
al Education Association and the Oregon Educa
tion Association. Quoting from a poster released
under -the aforementioned sponsorship we find
the following forceful reasons for "Rural School
Charter Day:"
"In this new era, America can develop the
finest rural civilization the world has yet seen.
We have the people, the energy, the innate in
telligence, the natural resources, and the wealth.
We need a virile education which can inspire and
prepare people to attack and solve their own pro
blems. For that reason, we cannot tolerate in any
rural community any educational procedures or
lack of them which would discriminate against
or in any way handicap a rural child in taking his
or her rightful place as a valued citizen of this
democracy."

Fidelity to a cause has been aptly demon
strated in Morrow county the past month. Un
able to secure her services for the school year,
Supt. B. C. Forsythe of lone persuaded Mrs. Lew
is Cason to substitute for the month during which
time he could acquire a permanent teacher. Mrs.
Cason consented, although it required driving
to and from home because it was necessary for
her to be home mornings and evenings most of
the time to do the chores. This meant that she
had to drive no less than 70 miles daily but she
managed it and her capable resvices to the school
command not only the gratitude of District No.
35 but of all people interested in education and
the proper upbringing of our children. It required
something more than money to prompt this sacri
fice on Mrs. Cason's part. Only those who love
their work and have the welfare of the children
at heart are accorded this recognition from pa
trons and the press.
In view of the currnet meat shortage over
most of the country it would appear that Shylock
with his pound of flesh was no small operator.

torn where I sit ... ly Joe Marsh
& Bert Childers
and the Melon Patch
Bert Childers put an ad In the
Clarion the other day. Here's what
it said:
"Planted more melon than I
can eat this year. Stop by and pick
as many as you want All free."
As yon can guess, plenty of folks
sent their kids over snd plenty of
the parents came toe. Stripped
Bert's melon patch In no time. And
as they went away, Bert treated
the kida to lemonade, and offered
the grownupa a glass of ice-cold
sparkling beer.
Naturally it puzzled some folks
. . , but Bert explains : "It gives me
a kick to share things when I can
afford to whether it's the melons,
or the lemonade, or beer. I guess I
just like to indulge my whims."
From where I sit, if we had more
"self-indulgent" people like Bert
who believe in share and share
alike, live and let live, thia tired
world would be a whole lot better
on.
