OUR READERS NOT TRAINED SEALS . BUT THEY RESPOND vL TO AD SUGGESTIONS TZ From where I sit ..Jy Joe Marsh Sad Note From The Bugle Ail of us on the Clarion wer alarmed to learn that our prin cipal rival in the newspaper field -the Baletvill fiupff-might have to shut down. Crops were bad in Balesville last year and one of their fac tories moved out of town. Just temporary hard times, of course but the Duglt needs help now if it's to survive. So, this paper is going: to scrape up a little money to help tide them over, and we hope other local concerns will do the same. We've seldom agreed with them editorially over the years -but we want their competition to keep us on our toes. From where I sit, this country needs papers with different points of view -just as it needs people with different ideas and tastes. You may prefer iced tea as a hot weather cooler ... I generally choose a cold glass of beer. But if either of us couldn't express his opinion, and act on it, that would be "bad news" for the whole community.
