THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 13, I99 THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER William Allen White has in Harper's Magazine (May) an ar ticle on the Country Newspaper which deserves wide reading. He says in tho concluding para graphs: ,., Our papers, our little country papers, seems darb and miserably provincial to strangers; yet wc, who read them read in their lines tho sweet, intimate story o life. And all these touches of nature make us wondrous kind. It is the country newspaper, bringing to gether daily the thread's of the town's life, Aveaviug them into something rich and strange, and setting the pattern as it weaves, directing the loom, and giving the cloth its color by mixing the lives of all the people in its color-pot it is this country newspaper that reveals us to ourselves, that keeps our country hearts quick and our country minds open and our coun try faith strong. "Therefore men and brethren, when you are riding through the vale of tears upon the California Limited, and, by chance, pick up the little country newspaper with its meager telegraph service oi three or four thousand words or, at best, fifteen or twenty thou sand; wheD you see its array of countryside items; its intermina ble local stories; its tiresome edi torials on the waterworks, the schools, the street railway, the crops, and the city printing, don't throw down the contemptible lit tle rag with the verdict that there is nothing in it. But know this, and know it -well: If you could take the clay from your eyes and read the little paper as it is writ ten, you would find all of God's beautiful, sorrowing, struggling, aspiring world in it, and what you saw would make you touch the lit tie paper with reverent hands."
