the 1 ton conservator one often wooden what it is that makes the small town paper so much of an attraction aad why in so many cases it is read so thoroughly from end to end it la not hard a explain the appeal that any small town paper has for its readera the explanation is very simple the city dally is so crowded with the nem of world events that ftfhas ao p to devote to the small news ltetm that are so interesting to the small town and rural dwellers the and apparently trifling items appear in the home town paper ara- just hat makes it such interesttnaj reading no item is too large and none too small for the local papcav but it is the small items that its read ers look for that is the reason why the home town newspaper is alwayv so much appreciated by those kwtj from home as well as those at noma and that is why advertising m q home town newspaper produces such satisfactory results it is read from beginning to end to make sure that nothing of local interest has been mis sed much of this interest is due ol course to the fact that the content of the home town newspaper tell about people whom its readers know interest is always keener when we know ttm people about whom we are
