. THE FRIENDLY DOOR
The newspaper in your town—you take it, of course,
and read it and find much in it to inform you and entertain
you but you take it for granted just like the air you breathe
or the glass of water always on tap, but suppose there was no
newspaper*—that newspapers were closed by some Hitlerlike edict or padlocked for lack of patronage and the friendly
door was no longer open for you to ask for a write-up or
space for your lodge. club, church. chamber of commerce. Just
suppose you wanted to speed up interest in raising funds for
some public benefit, some patriotic effort or that you wanted
to put over a hospital project or keep up the enthusiasm of the
town for baseball or bowling or soft ball or basket ball. Suppose the police regulations were being ignored or flood conditions neglected and you wanted a gentle reminder, or the fire
department needed backing-and the soldiers’ organizations
had a little pat on the back coming for their fine patriotic record and activities—but there were no channels such as newspaper provides. Suppose you Wanted to sell or to buy— but
there was no newspaper available. Yes, it would not only be
depressing, inconvenient and unnatural but it would be costly,
costly to community progress and costly to the individual who
will never be able to inform the public as promptly and with
so little expense as through the friend!y columns of the home
town press.
This is Newspaper Week all over the nation. Stop and
think what the newspaper means to you, how you depend on
it and utilize its faciiities. The subscribers and the readers
build the circulation and increase the newspaper audience.
The advertiser enables the newspaper publisher to make the
subscription price almost nil. Advertising is the backbone of
your paper. By patronizing the advertising columns directly
or encouraging all business men to advertise, you assure the
future of your newspaper and its service to you or your organization. During -National Newspaper Week prove your
appreciation of past courtesies and our willing cooperation
fifty-two weeks in the year by pledging your cooperation to
your newspaper and the freedom of the press, an institution
Americans can’t “letdown.”
' The press which is supported by a free people is the
greatest asset of any nation. The subsidized press in existence
to feather the interest of some special interest or as a propaganda media is to be deplored and spells the downfall of national freedom.
“
The American way of life is reflected in the newspapers
of America and depends on its free press for its perpetuation
and many of its blessings. . No one is taxed to support the
newspaper. It is far more valuable than many of the facilities
for which you are taxed. As a public service it is hard to
equal. Your voluntary patronage keep the presses running,
the payroll going, the friendly door open for your many requests. Say a good word for your newspaper this week and
every week.—Sonoma Index-Tribune.
YES, THERE SEEMS TO BE SOME
MISUNDERSTANDING
(From California Mining Journal)
When Harry Englebright went back to Washineten in
the middle of September with the nomination and_ election
tucked in his belt, his constituents were handed a jolt that. is
not going to be forgotten.
Mr. Englebright made his “access road”’ bill his. hottest
campaign issue. In fact it was his broadside: This is. the law,
you know, that would have given thousands of small owners
of war deposits their opportunity of getting their ores out:to a
government stock pile. All of the 52 newspapers in Harry's
district and a number of metropolitan dailies ran the big story
“of what Harry had done to get this miuch desired mineral into
the hands of the government. Harry's opponents who labeled
him an “‘obstructionist*“couldn’t get to’ first base—his road
bill had wiped up all the obstructionists and the votes rolled in
by thousands from all the mountain mineral districts that have
been waiting to supply their ores to the government.
But listen:
Just as Harry was leaving for the national capital for another two years he told Edmund Kinyon. editor of the Grass
Valley Morning Union, a big joke, resulting in Ed’s printing
of the following:
“Some confustion exists as to the status of the Englebright access roads bill from which relief to the mining
interests in general was expected. Authoritative word is
that the bill, carrying a relatively large appropriation,
became law many months ago. However, following the
entry of the United States into the war, the bulk of the
proceeds was through some governmental process diverted to the Army and Navy for the building of roads and
terminals. essential to their emergency operations. Beyond some two or three hundred _ thousand dollars, the
mining objective has not benefitted.” .
Maybe Harry will be back again two years
looking for votes.
from now

JUST WONDERIN’
I wonder if the lovely things
Which we have kept in kitchen gardens,
And over which we've always ruled,
High handed, dictatorial wardens,
Will spurn our really overt ways,
Or forge indeed so far ahead,
That we will give them honored space
And plant them in the tulip bed.

vegetables are coming to the front. During post years, we have
given these humble denizens of the vegetable kingdom verv.
little consideration. . Oh, I know we have planted them and
given them a certain amount of necessary care, but we have
never treated them as equals, never allowed them to grow
pridefully or conspicuously. Now however, all this is changed.
Vegetables have emerged from the victory garden with
a vengeance. They now appear arrogantly in front lawns, rose

words of the Georgia cracker, “how can it was.”
I wonder. if these revoluttinary members of the V kingdom will get completely out of hand. We have oppressed

For many long years we have plucked and peeled them, scraped and sliced them, baked and boiled, pickled and pared them.

of the times and that by writing in their defense, I gained the
confidence of potatoes, beets, carrots, et al, and that in gratitude, they will respect and serve me well, now that they have
come at length into their own.
I wonder if some of us are selfish. Really, the young
men of the nation together with their mothers-and fathers are
the only ones who have made great sacrifices, but several socalled pressure blocs seem to be singing —
I'll tak’ the high road an’ you tak’ the low road,
An’ I'll get inflation afore ye;
But me an’ my true pals will never more go down
To the bony, bony level of pre war days.
Let’s abandon our high roads and climb down from our
high horse. We will have to, you know, before this war is won.
Uncle Silas says:, ‘I never did like to have a strange
young man step up to the door upon a certain occasion and
sing, ‘Happy Birthday to You.” but it’s worse now when they
are singing ads all over the radio. I shouldn't be surprised if
some day I heard a nice fat voice singing the war news.—A.

And we’ll support -his plan.
