A newspaper man with a level head
says : A paper to be first-class must M-
daive-first-class support. Pirst-class support consists in every subscriber paying
his subscription in advance, patronize
the job department instead of sending the
work to foreign offices and in ever giving
the paper your moral help. Taking, and
reading and not paying for it will never
do* . Moral support of itsself was never
known to run newspapers: moral support cannot be utilized when ink an<
paper bills are to be paid. The men-who
work on newspapers are human and enjoy
corned beef and cabbage as well as other

Saturday evening about nine o'clock
as the family of D. Sleiter were quietly

splendid. If our space would permit, w©
would mention each particular character
but as it does not we wiE say that, without doubt, it was the best' show that ever
visited our village. Their "gags5* were a
little too personal at times but the public
must remember that in a show of this
Mnd someone has to be made the subject of a joke. We bespeak for our sister towns an excellent show and lots of
fun. If they ever have occasion to. come
to our village again they may be assured
of a crowded house,      .. .:
