association and the ontarioquebec division of ttie cwna the editors corner why no doubt our readers are wondering why we nave decided to raise the nrice of the herald there are several seasons lor this the rising cost of paper was dae factor of some importance in our decision paper prices have lm creased in the past- year and another increase is anticipated this won- mer another reason and the one which was the major cause of ttie chance is that we want to give you a better newspaper in the years to come like anything else the more value that is put into a newspaper the more it costs to produce and the more the finished product should be worth with more money coming in from sales of the herald we will be able to invest in more cut books and new type for our advertisers in more pictures and features for 6ur readers qo in the months to come we intend to give you a better and better herald one which we hope you will feel is worth much more than the 300 a year charge news for the boys in uniform the many letters we have received from local men stationed far from home with units of the army navy and air force could all be sum medupln one single sentence its good to hear the news from home those of you in georgetown who are away from your homes will know this feeling and the warm glow that comes over you when a letter or paper arrives from the old home town this feeling is intensified among men on active service who are following a pattern of life so foreign to that they have been used to a life which is sometimes monotonous with training marching drilling and for whom the simple pleasures of home are not available it is you people back home mothers and fathers wives children friends who can brighten up this life with lots of personal letters to jour loved ones you can help too by telling us little bits of news that we might jrrirx in the course of a busy week in outlying communities especially we miss many news items milch would be enjoyed bj the chaps on active service we are in need of regular correspondents in norval hornby union and other neighbouring places who are willing to help publicize their community by writing up the weeklj news there if your district news is not being covered adequately in the herald tell us about it send us your news items suggest to us someone in the community that jou think could make a good lob of reporting we will appreciate it and so will the bos in uniform it wasnt the akron we were surprised that someone dldn t check us on our news storj a few weeks ago when we reported that the goodyear blimp akron flew over georgetown to advertise the victors loan afterwards we began to wonder and inquiring from some of those who saw it we found it was the r in fact ii we recall it cor rectly the akron was
