Oregon for transmission Mails, as second class matter, under o f March 3. 1879 R ETIRING FROM THE N E W SP A PE R BUSINESS During the business career of the publisher of this newspaper, he has made two very difficult decisions. They were the decision to quit the security of a good newspaper job in Baker to assume ownership of the Gate City Journal when Nysssa was just beginning to feel the beneficial effects of the Owyhee project. He made the second decision last week when he decided to give up a newspaper career of 27 years and leave the town that he has learned to love and respect, along with its people, whose friendship and patronage have made suc cess and happiness possible for him in the face of adverse conditions. In all of my newspaper career, I have never used a personal pronoun in my editorial column, but I intend to do so today because this is a personal message to my business associates, customers and other friends. I have often thought of the difference in the relation ship between a weekly newspaper publisher and the residents of a community and the owners of other busi nesses. Because each community needs a newspaper, a publisher, regardless of ability or personality, must generally be accepted by the community so long as he is successful enough to stay in business. I am thankful, therefore, that I have sold my newspaper to two men, DuSne Alters and George Whorton, who have had years of experience in the newspaper business, both as em ployes and as owners. Because of publishing papers in the Snake River valley on the Idaho side they are famil iar with the people of this community and their problems and economy. Alters, who will be in charge of the news paper, has a cheery disposition that will be pleasing to local residents. Since 1941, the publishers of this Newspaper have bought new machinefy to replace obsolete equipment as rapidly as finances would permit and the new owners plan to continúe the same policy so that some day Nyssa will have a top-notch newspaper and commercial print ing plant. If I could fit into the business economy of Nyssa after selling my newspaper, I certainly would not leave. My experience in the stationery and office supply field makes it possible for me to enter business in (Ontario and thus I am not required to leave Malheur county. My business interests in the county will give me considerable oppor tunity to visit my Nyssa friends. I hope the relationship between the new publisher and the community will always be pleasant. If they are not, both will suffer. CHURCH C IRC LE MEETS The Ruth and Naomi circle of the Methodist church met Thursday e.ening at tne home of Mr- Robert Wilson Mrs Hugh Tobler led the devotions.

Nyssa is basically a farmer's town and is built and supported by the farm er trade The parking m eter, when found in a small town, con- j stitutes a real nuisance to farmers wishing to trade at various points of business in the town. The parking meter is a violation of a free America, and must have originated in Europe. The farmers have two courses of action to take it their vote against the meter is not heeded, 1. Boycott towns installing the meter, or the farmers too can organize and create a nuisance tax on every ton of their produce which rolls Into town.
