The effort of any newspaper to
build up a town, says The Eatonton
Messenger, is practically nullified
unless it is backed up by the busi
ness men of that town. A stranger
turns from the news columns of a
paper to its advertising columns,
and if he fails to finds there the
business cards of the merchants and
professionable firms, he comes to the
coiiselusion that the editor is not
appreciated, in which place it is a
good place to keep clear from. No
town ever grew without the assis
tance of its paper. Nor can papers
grow and build up their localities
without the assistance of the town.
Businessmen should realize this and
remember that in lending support to
their local paper, they are not only
building up their own business, but
are helping to support that which is
steadily working for the growth- of
the whole town.
