For many yeuirs hi publishad and odited, Va. prs et varlous points ln Canada bforeb going to Florida where ho net up a modern plant to contin- ue ln the saine field. Learnmng JolacOsborne that The Virginia Gazette equir- cd eorganization, his sense oi hi:- torical values led hlm ta purchase tue paper Jan. 10, 1930, in the midst ai the depression. He mov- cd is modemn plant from Floida to .Wlliamsburg. He was then 69 yeama a! age. Hia gcnius ecs- tablished the paper and now at four score and six, Mr. Osborne la stili gaing strong. Oldest Paper The Virginia Gazette wa s Jounded by William Parka, Aug. 6, 1736 and it la today, 211 yeams later, the oldest newspapcr souti af the Potomac. It atarted as a Court Journal whilc a colonial de- cree barrcd publication ai a free press. As revolutionary agita- tion arase it began ta carry loc- al news aud gadually became an influential wcekly as freedoni was wan by the colonista. The Ga- zette lias survived sporadie com- petîtion down the yearn, lias con- tinued under mauy editoma, noue more wlse and vigorous than Joqi Osborne. Historie Figures This great Historie Edition of 128 pages la made up ai Uic reg- ular weekly section plus a supple- meut of 112 pages that sets forth a panorama o! history reaching back thrce centuries, for it ln- cludes the foundlng o! James- town (1583) birthplace ai the «U. S.A. Printed in full is the De- claration o! Independeuce, the Vîrgînla Resolutions and ail the main events that took place leadi- lng -ta ludependeuce and the growth of democratie Institutions. It permits thc eader ta travel along wlth George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, John Hancoak and ail the noted figures o! those great dayi for it quotes their words and actions. Link With Past The Gazette stili carnies on its masthead its. original lhue iu aid EnglI&h type; "Containing 411 tue freshest advlces, foreign and do- mentie." And the type still fea- turcs the letter "S" in the faim ai a fisli-hook. Each'weekly copy carmies a columu taken from an- dient files thst reminds the. read- cm of! the history that won frce- dom. But lu ather respects, the wiole paper is a strictly modemn weekly dealing .with curment ev- enta, social news, faim news, sports, caunhtry correspoudeuts, literamy page, etc., an.d aiso edlt- oriels from Uic peu o! ecUtor ou- borne. Mlodern Format The press work and particular- ly the photo cuts are a standout of the Gazette.' The Illustrations include a double-page photo of costumned local actoma who take part in the stage presentation of the sessions of the General'As- seznbly af 1764. It la a splendid reproduction. An intemesting eut in -a, photostat ai a receipt for, a subacriptian to the Gazette (30s) byGeneral Washington, May 22, 1779. And-ail through the paper appears th e splendidly arranged advertlaements a! the merchants ai the present day together with greetings from the State and many arganizationu. Agelega Paper We have seen nothlng like this greac Issue that links the present with past. Many times we have sald that the truc hlstory ai the nation ls iound In the columns af the weekly press. No paper bet- ter empliasizes this truth than the agelesa. Virginla Gazette. We cauldi go on for rnany more col- umne telling of the wealth af ma- trili ound in this splendid issue presentcd by Mr. Osborne, , but enough ha& been net down ta show how ane weekly editor at leanc has carried out the truc con- ception and purpose ai a weekly paper. True Put-pose The truc purpose ai a weekly las ta pramate the welfare of its community in ail ways possible.
