Our cohgratulations to Exeter Lions Club,
which IS celebrating its twentieth anniversary.
This service organization can indeed be proud
of the work it has done in •this community during the
past two decades.
The impressive list 'of Lions' achievements is
recorded elsewhere in this edition. Among the most
rtOteworthy was the launching of the campaign to
build South Huron Hospital which has proven to be a
Valuable asset to the community.
Lions have also erected a Scout and Guide
house which is the envy of many communities in. this
district. This project has revived interest in the finest
youth movement in the world.
Lions have donated thousands of dollars to
help crippled children, the Red Cross, wartime causes
and many other worthwhile charities.
It has made other important contributions to
the community in the erection of street signs, assist-
ance in the trap rock fluor campaign, and similar
projects.
This district is much indebted to the "roaring
Lions" for their unselfish work.
Our hats are off to them. 0
Still A Challenge
If you have not made your contribution to the
annual Christmas Seal sale of Huron County TB As-
sociation, don't forget it. Although this appeal has
been made for many years, it should- not be •taken
or granted.
The importance of continuing the fight against
TB is shown in reports which indicate that, while the
deatji rate from TB is decreasing, the number of -
people contracting the disease continues to rise.
,r •Huron county has an active group in charge
'of TB prevention. Last year over $.10:000 was spent
in InasS X-ray surveys, monthly chest clinics, assist-
ance to patients, and educational methods. Over 1,000
people took advantage of free chest clinics in the
County last year. •

A recent survey covering 7,000 people reported
by Dr., George Gallup of the American Institute of.
Public Opinion shows the real potential of news-
papers as an advertising media. Some of the con-
clusions resulting from the Gallup survey were as
$ollows:
Advertising is, news to most readers. The
majority of those interviewed said they found 'adver-
tising a "most useful" feature, of the newspaper.
Asked whether they would .prefer their news-
papers with or without advertising the vote was
.overwhelmingly on the side of ads. A.'similar vote
resulted for advertising in magazines, but by a smaller
majority. The exact opposite- opinion was found In
the case of television and radio..
The survey also found that only one person
in .ten who receives a newspaper fails to read it.
The theory that newspaper readers want to
make up their own minds—that they want only the t
bare bets -4s refuted by the facts of the survey. f
Readers, it was found, like to be told what is import- i
ant and what is not important, -They want help in

contains more truth than fiction:
Getting out this paper is no picnic.
It we print jokes, people say we are silly.
If we don't they say we are too serious.
If we stick close to the office all day, we ought to be
around hunting material.
If we go out and try to hustle, we ought to be on the ,
job in the office,
If we don't print contributions, we don't appreciate
genius;
And if we do print them, the paper is filled with junk!
If we edit the other fellow's writeup, we're too
critical;
If we dent we're asleep.
If we clipthings from other papers, we are too lazy
to write them ourselves.
If we don't, we are stuck on our own stuff. '
