Not

A/most

ours!
Your local newspaper's prime function is
to present the news ... honestly and fully.
That's all. However, sometimes the report-
ing goes astray, when the news is printed.
Some of our friends think this is amusing.
Some don't. We at your local newspaper
don't laugh easily when a mistake is made
in your local paper.
But in spite of our best efforts, it does
happen occasionally. Even the editor had to
smile , when this caption appeared in his
newspaper under the picture of a fallen tree:
'The tree downed at this home
damaged spouting and shingles .. .
it was snapped by a violent guest.
In another newspaper, the coronation of a
high school beauty queen took an unusual
turn when the proofreaders overlooked
this one:
Queen Margie White was escorted to
her throne by co -captains Jim Black
and Frank Gruff. There she was
presented with roses and drowned.
Sometimes the classified ads are full of
surprises, too. The young lady who ran this
advertisement is still wishing that her
friends would let her forget it:
I Wanted: Large well -furnished room
by young woman about fifteen
. feet square.
Then there was the time one of our nice
Iowa- ladies, trying to do her part to add
to the Christmas spirit of her home city,
found her efforts recorded thus:
Mrs. X set up a still life composi-
tion of angel figurines and greenery
entitled, "Hark the Herald Angels
Sin.
So, when you see one like this:
The Rotary male quartet will sing,
"1 need three every hour . ."
Or this:
1 am now in position to hatch
your eggs at five cents per egg ...
please remember that local newspapers are
regarded by readers as a friend they can't
do without, and even a good friend is bound
to make a mistake once in a while.
When you stop to consider that over a million inches
of news are reported each week in hundreds of
weekly newspapers throughout Canada, a mistake
here and there doesn't sound too bad to sone
people, But a misspelled name of a local citizen in a
news story is no laughing matter .. if it's about
you.
