SUPPORT THE LOCAL PAPER.—Mr.
'F. E. Robson, head of the C. P. R.
advertising department, was re•
gently interviewed by the Canadian
Municipal Journal, a. bright month-
Iy magazine of Montreal, devoted
to the interests of municipal man-
agement, upon the subject of towns
and villages advertising themselves
and what means he considered
best for so doing. Mr. Robson re-
plied emphatically that he believed
firmly in systematic advertising
for municipalities, for the simple
reason that he has seen it done
successfully in several instances.
He said in reply to a question of
Methods : "In the first place, I have
a very high regard for the local
paper. Too often its work for the
municipality is overlooked, as week
after week it devotes valuable
space gratis for the benefit of the
community" in which it is located ;
and. like many other blessings, its
value, by the unthinking, is not
recognized." Commenting on this
the Brockville Times says: '•Mr.
Robson was right. The local news-
paper as a rule spends endless time-,
• space and energy in booming the
town, and yet some of the mer-
chants and business men seem to
begrudge it te little patronage, hag-
gle and beat down prices, and in
many oases give their work to out-
side firms or travelling fakirs.
There is no local enterprise which
should be so willingly or substanti-
ally supported as the local news-
paper, however humble. It is not
so big as the city paper, and the
keen bargainer who wants to get a
reduced rate never fails to point
out that he gets more paper for his
money in the city daily, but the
little local sheet fills a place which
the city daily never does and never
can. It is not a rare thing to hear
Some narrow-minded individual
sneer in derision at the local iiaper
and point out its defects. Well, it
has defects, and plenty of them, no
doubt, brit as a ruse it represents
the cemanunity pretty accurately,
in this r,'ospeetas in others."
