JACKSON COUNTY FEDERAL Savings & Loan Association 126 East Main i- - r IidJ can fofitf in t The life we lead, the work we do, the pleasures we enjoy are mate rially influenced by what's going on in the world. It's only natural, therefore, that reading the news paper should be as much a part of everyday life as eating and sleeping. Most people, as a matter of fact, can't get along without it . . . and practically everybody reads a news paper every day, not only for the news it brings, but for the interpre tation it presents, the pictures it prints, the entertainment it pro vides, the advice it offers. Small wonder that the newspaper should be the forceful, profitable advertising medium that it is. Small wonder, too, that today, when the news plays so important a part in people's lives, the newspaper is an even more vital and profitable ad vertising medium than ever before.
