BOWMANVILLE, ONT., THURSDAY, JANUARY 8th, 1931 $2.00 a Year in Advance 5c a Copy No. 2 ZUST AMONG OUBSELVES Fifty-two times a year we send our weekly message ta the great f amily af Statesman readers in town, coun- try, nearly every province ln the Do- omjinion, across the border and to distant lands across the seas. In preparing the news our thoughts sa otten wander to the distant subscri- bers who through the co1urns of The Statesman are kept infarmed about the "folks back home". Thel old home town paper sort of acts as thxe anchor which keeps the boys and girls interested in their native town and county. Some of these people have been away f rom home for forty years and mare. yet they stiil read The Statesman. What a wonderful fami.ly of readers! Often during the year the editor is pleased ta receive letters f rom these good folk telling of their joys, be- reavements or successes of one of taxeir family or a former Durhamite in their community which we pass on to the wider circle of Statesman readers. Just now is the time of the year viien many are renewing theirsub- scriptlans ta The Statesman. Scores are caIllng at the office while letters are pouring in by each mail with welcome words "Enclosed please fInd $2 for renewal to The States- man". We admit the enclosure is most acceptable and required but thxe littie comments which often ac- company the letters are equaily ap- prciated by the editor and bis staff. Some cantain a bit of news, athers a suggestion whereby we can improve t.he paper and occasionally there's a word of praise about the paper being "lbetter than a letter from home". 11 couldn't do without the States- man" or "we 1looli for the home paper ta came each week". is it any wander the editor of a weekly newspaper would not changel bis job for the best position inx the country? There is a fascination, a thrill, a satisfaction in deallng wtb the human element of turning et a newspaper, particularly a weekly newspaper in wblcb the ed- itor cames in such close contact with thxe people of bis community, whlch ia Iacking in almost any other busi- ness or profession.
