A few of these people reach further into the depths of life for a richer knowl edge of intricate ways by which it may be expressed. Often these people choose to be heard by oth ers and at times they limit the debate of important matters to their own hearts—for theirs is an understanding of the benefits of the proper time and place. Such a man was Bill Russell, a fellow farmer, a fellow business man, and most of all—a friend! Those who knew him will net forget his expressive laughter but serious smile, his unique manner of sharing his experiences that left the eyes of many children wild with excitement, and his eagerness in attempts to help strengthen the security of our community. Within the hearts of his friends will always remain many memo ries of a fine gentleman and neighbor. RENA E.

(NATIONAL NEWSPAPER WEEK—OCT. 14-20) Newspapers Do Make A Difference in People's Lives A good newspaper prints the important news and pro vides the information, comment and guidance that is most useful to its readers. It reports fully and explains the meaning of local, state and national events that have significance in the community it serves. Its editorial comment provides an informed opinion of vital concern to its readers. It should reflect the image of the community in news coverage and provide wise counsel in the editorials, and thereby become a former of public conscience. It should be lively, imaginative and original, and with all, a sense of humor. To carry out these principles requires skilled help in the front office and in the shop. All departments must know of the problems involved by the other sections and work as a team. Good writing should be combined with good pictures in good printing and then arranged in a pleasing manner. As far as possible, within time and space limits, news of most interest to more of the readers should be given priority in what should be used. (Quite frequently in a small weekly, items will be found with less interest than others left out because the important items came in too late for the first or second press runs.) To assure a financially strong and independent paper, competitive with other media, the paper must maintain an effective circulation within the trade area and carry a maximum amount of advertising. Finally, a good newspaper should be guided in the publication of all material by a concern for truth, the hallmark of freedom, by a concern for human decency and human betterment, and by a respect for the accepted standards of its own community.
