This is National Newspaper Week —the one period
set aside annually when members of the press can “toot
their own horn” with all modesty.
All papers are accused of telling their advertisers the
importance of “selling” and then failing to impress the
public of their functions and how important they are in
a democracy.
If the people are to have the final say-so on our gov
ernment they must first, be informed, and then, act on
that information. And we know of no better way in
which they are informed than by newspapers.
They may get a smattering of the news via announce
ments on radio or television, but to learn the details they
rely on newspapers. If you doubt this — don't read a
paper for a week and then try to discuss current events
with those who have read them.
We are inclined to believe there is no business the
public deals with continuously that is as misunderstood
as the newspaper business — especially a small town
weekly. Readers criticize the editor for what he puts
in the paper, for what he leaves out or the manner in
which he records it. They fail to recognize that it is a
business and as such depends on its revenue for its live
lihood. ,
There are those administrators of tax-paying bodies
(we have had one recently) who believe we should print
only what they release and that the chairman of the
board should not be called on to get what the adminis
trator chooses not to release.
Then there are those patrons who do not wish to pay
the charges of a professional photographer for wedding
pictures and think it is news that should be fully taken
care of by the local paper when the daughter gets mar
ried.
We have businesses that are “too small to advertise”
— businesses that are “too large for our small paper.”
The editor has to sort what comes over his desk into two
classes — it’s either news or it’s advertising, and if it’s
the latter, must be charged for at going rates.
The advertiser supports the publication you read
each week — it’s his check that affords you the local
paper. But you, Mr. and Mrs. Reader, control the adver
tiser! Unless the advertiser is sold on the idea that you
read the paper, he won’t spend his money for the ads;
hence, there will cease to be a hometown publication. I
il
So readers and newspapers are Partners in Freedom!!

Jehovah’s Witnesses from Nyssa
were among members of 16 con
gregations attending a recent
area convention in Ontario.
Marvin L. Holien of Brooklyn,
N.Y., was speaker at the conclud
ing session and pointed to pride
and selfishness as major causes
of local, national and interna
tional problems.
He noted that conflicts such as
the Vietnam war, civil rights dem
onstrations and crippling strikes
are typical happenings throughout
the world today.
The speaker said that to count
less millions of persons, failing
health is a matter of prime con
cern, and charged that inborn
pride and selfishness thwarts
solutions to most of today’s prob
lems.
Holien stated that men actually
need an entirely new system. He
called for lives to be brought into
harmony with the Christian sys
tem — and the enjoyment of ■ |
satisfaction for all needs under
Christ’s reign.

DeLong Teaches
Science Courses
(Krom the NHS Bulldog*)
One of three new teachers at
Nyssa High School this year is
William DeLong who formerly
taught chemistry at The Dalles.
DeLeng is married; he and his
wife Connie have two children,
Robert, 22 months; and Mary,
eight months old. They live on
Gem Avenue north of Nyssa. He
attended Boise Junior College and
was graduated from Eastern Ore
gon College at La Grande.
When asked how he likes Nyssa,
he replied, “I like it very well.”
The new chemistry and physics
teacher says he has no real hob
bies as such but likes to hunt and
fish; another interest is the sport
of football. During the summer,
he likes to travel while working
for the Bureau of Land Manage
ment.
Commenting on the Nyssa High
School, DeLong said. “As a rule,
in all my classes, most of the stu
dents are well-behaved and they
try hard.”

The way we drive has a lot to do with how much wear our engines get. Stop-and-
go, long, hard driving can increase engine wear. Unfortunately, most of us can’t
change the way we drive. But we can protect our
engines, by changing to RPM Motor Oil. "RPM" pro
tects in all kinds of driving... stop-and go, long hauls,
heavy-duty. In fact, with 'RPM" and proper oil
changes, your engine can outlast the life of your truck,
car, or other equipment. Try it. Call us soon about any
of the complete "RPM" line.
