THE ALEX AN OK i A GAZETTE AND
VIKGINIA ADVERTISER will soon cele
brate its centennial year. More than three
quarters of a century ago it grew into li'e a cre
ation of want: and needs of the people of this
section of Virginia.
During all this period its prominent object has
been to advance the interests of the people of
whose life it is the daily chronicle. Its fortunes
have been their fortunes; it has shared tlv-ir
prosperity and suffered in their disas -r?. Its
inspiration has b?en the desire to forward the
best interests of the community in which it i*'
located, and its own prosperity is, us it hit-? been
purposely made, inseparable from that of the
community it aims' to represent. When they
grow rich it hopes for a reward comm-n*>urale
with its labors. While th< y are poor it expects
to work with them and lor them, expecting
make their success the measure of its <>wn.
The past of the Gazette is otlerod as an inch x
of its future. It his never failed t"> avail itself
promptly of all the improvements which come
with the greater growth and more extended "\
perience of journalism. Every year NEW
FEATURES will be added.
