CITY PRESS Turning from the city newspaper to the rural exchange which conies to our desk, says a city man, is like step- ping from the slums full of vile odors into an old-fashioned garden sweet with. honey -suckle and the scent of perennial flowers. The pages of the big dailies are so full of murder, thiev- ery, immortality, the breaking up of homes by infidelity and selfishness that the better news is obscured. One puts the paper aside with a feeling of depression and heartache . that the world is so full of such terrible and unhappy things. Then picking up the papers that record the happenings of the smaller towns around us one gams Irenewed faith in life. Here are set forth only that which uplifts a com- munity -the activities of the business men, the church news, the civic good accomplished by women, the schocee' items, the happy social gatherings of the people, the marriages, births and deaths, farmers' items and all the thousand and one daily occurrences that make up the simple annals of the great common people who are really the foundation of this broad country of ours. Scandals are seldom pub- lished in the, count* newspapers, but if it so happens' that decency demands it, the uglier details are omitted, or are given a kindly touch that is wide- ly different front the unfeeling pub- licity of the city press. No wonder. The offenders may be our neighbors, or people we have rubbed elbows with all our lives, They are real human beings, while to the great dailies they are merely grains of a sort that are ground out hourly in their newsmill.

Some- thing frightened them and they turn- ed back and in doing so knocked over Mr. Armstrong, who was just steep- ing front the car.
