COUNTRY VS. 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.
