In•taking over the interests of the estate of the late
Walter F. Naftel in The Goderich Star, we want to place on re-
cord, in this, Our first issue, some recognition of his seryices to
the 'community in Mitch he lived. Those services are, of
course, much better known and appreciated by the residents of.
this neighborhood than by ourselves, but vie have learned from
many sources that he gave unsparingly of his time and energies
towards the betteriment of his home town. That will also be
our objective, and if we can succeed to anything like the same
extent as the late Mr. Naftel, we -will feel that we haveobeen jus-
tified in selecting' Goderich as our home:
Several factors contribeited to our selection. We frankly
'admit that the natural attractiveness of the town, combined
with the foresight displayed by those of- earlier generations in
placing the county buildings where they did and building the
business section of the 10ivn in a circle at a' measured distance
around them, made an instant appeal to us. Then Goderich is
sho_re.s. o er_and2havi rig spent -a -great --
part of our lives in lake port towns, inland location had little
Or nO attractions for us. Goderich was- also rec mended
-The-cause of it .0 ure poSsi west an e co -opera lye -spirt
which is said to exist among the citizens on all questions affect=
ing_ the . Welfare Of the. tonununitY__ -
Regarding the political attitude of The Star, our intention
is to be Strictly independent. We have learned, as many other
newspaper people „have, that blind partizanship -is disastrous for
both a newspaper and a town. For that reason most .of the
modern papers in cities and towns are operating Upon a basis of
independence that would have been misundergood a few years
-So- far- ag fepoitinerneetings*is concerned, The' Star viiI
give both parties, whether Conservative or Liberal; absolutely
the, same treatment, without coloring the One or disparaging the
other. Should a C.C.F. candidate be in the field in the forth-,
,comittig Federal contest, he (or she) wilf be accorded the sarne
consideration: •
• We decline to believe that either party possesses all the
virtues while the other is burdened with all the vices as so flam-
boyantly asserted during a catnpaign.-
There are anxious, ernest men on both sides, • striving to serve
Canada and their constitutencies to the utmost of their ability.
•The recent physical condition of the 'Hon. R, B. Bennett was,
unquestionably, Caused by his devotion to what he -conceived
to_he his duty and his uncontrollable desire for work. One
cannot but wonder that a man of his enormotis wealth should
concern himself with affairs of state, as he has nothing -to gain'
' by his sacrifices but everything to lose in the way of health.
There are also men ,of outstanding ability and Integrity on the
Liberal side of the House who are spending their energies hi the
service of the Dominion, Von. W. L. MacKenzie King tlas de,
'Voted his fiti Cinaiiian-affairs and the same could doubtless
be said of several of his colleagues.

EXPLANATION
. 711.13, our, 'first issue of The
,efotierich Star, is not what we
had hoped it would be, but owing
to certain delays which were quite
unavoidable and beyond our con-
trol, it Was a physical impossibil-
ity to make the desired changes.
We „therefore ask the indulgence
or our advertisers and subscribers,
and .hope fc;r their sakes, as well
as- our own, that we will be able
to carry on our plan, 'within a very
short time.

In•taking over the interests of the estate of the late
Walter F. Naftel in The Goderich Star, we want to place on re-
cord, in this, Our first issue, some recognition of his seryices to
the 'community in Mitch he lived. Those services are, of
course, much better known and appreciated by the residents of.
this neighborhood than by ourselves, but vie have learned from
many sources that he gave unsparingly of his time and energies
towards the betteriment of his home town. That will also be
our objective, and if we can succeed to anything like the same
extent as the late Mr. Naftel, we -will feel that we haveobeen jus-
tified in selecting' Goderich as our home:
Several factors contribeited to our selection. We frankly
'admit that the natural attractiveness of the town, combined
with the foresight displayed by those of- earlier generations in
placing the county buildings where they did and building the
business section of the 10ivn in a circle at a' measured distance
around them, made an instant appeal to us. Then Goderich is
sho_re.s. o er_and2havi rig spent -a -great --
part of our lives in lake port towns, inland location had little
Or nO attractions for us. Goderich was- also rec mended
-The-cause of it .0 ure poSsi west an e co -opera lye -spirt
which is said to exist among the citizens on all questions affect=
ing_ the . Welfare Of the. tonununitY__ -
Regarding the political attitude of The Star, our intention
is to be Strictly independent. We have learned, as many other
newspaper people „have, that blind partizanship -is disastrous for
both a newspaper and a town. For that reason most .of the
modern papers in cities and towns are operating Upon a basis of
independence that would have been misundergood a few years
-So- far- ag fepoitinerneetings*is concerned, The' Star viiI
give both parties, whether Conservative or Liberal; absolutely
the, same treatment, without coloring the One or disparaging the
other. Should a C.C.F. candidate be in the field in the forth-,
,comittig Federal contest, he (or she) wilf be accorded the sarne
consideration: •
• We decline to believe that either party possesses all the
virtues while the other is burdened with all the vices as so flam-
boyantly asserted during a catnpaign.-
There are anxious, ernest men on both sides, • striving to serve
Canada and their constitutencies to the utmost of their ability.
•The recent physical condition of the 'Hon. R, B. Bennett was,
unquestionably, Caused by his devotion to what he -conceived
to_he his duty and his uncontrollable desire for work. One
cannot but wonder that a man of his enormotis wealth should
concern himself with affairs of state, as he has nothing -to gain'
' by his sacrifices but everything to lose in the way of health.
There are also men ,of outstanding ability and Integrity on the
Liberal side of the House who are spending their energies hi the
service of the Dominion, Von. W. L. MacKenzie King tlas de,
'Voted his fiti Cinaiiian-affairs and the same could doubtless
be said of several of his colleagues.

EXPLANATION
. 711.13, our, 'first issue of The
,efotierich Star, is not what we
had hoped it would be, but owing
to certain delays which were quite
unavoidable and beyond our con-
trol, it Was a physical impossibil-
ity to make the desired changes.
We „therefore ask the indulgence
or our advertisers and subscribers,
and .hope fc;r their sakes, as well
as- our own, that we will be able
to carry on our plan, 'within a very
short time.
