It The Clinton New Era FOR Cornniunity Service The New Era is desirous of giving this com- munity the fullest possible service as a com- munity newspaper, and it is quite fair to ex- pect that with the reasonable co-operation of each part of the community, something worth while can be accomplished. A few useful and helpful forms of co- operation might include: Regular correspond- ents,'in each surroundng village and township, who Will write detailed accounts of all events in their respective districts. Men and women who do this interesting work are performing a real service to the locality in which they live and, at the sante time, help to make this the finest community in the Province. Already The New Era has correspondents at several points whose services are, appreciated by the Editor. There are other districts, however, not so represented. The school teachers can help in developing interest among the pupils and parents by send- ing in school items for publication, such as honour rolls, promotions, etc. Ministers might' add to the value and interest of their work by sending in details of weddings, etc. Merchants and business men generally would do well to use the advertising columns of The New Era to tell their customers' and. prospective customers the news of fresh goods or the latest styles they have to offer. Even the smallest store in the community can im- prove trade by thoughtful and informative ad- vertisng. The New Era will give every assistance possible in the preparation of copy to those who inay wish to avail thesinselves of it. What we want is that The New Era shall be recognized as belonging to the entire community, ready and willing to, serve all, Office Phone 30 House Phone 95 G.trp .. 11 Clinton New Era Thursday, December 13Th, 1974 Taking out Ontario the Col,servat- yes carried just thirteen seet5 thr0tlgh- auit .the DOin1111018.
