The Colborne Express, an old-timer, which like the Cobourg World, has survived many years under the same name, is a six column paper, well printed. A noticable thing about all these papers is the very small amount of space devoted to sports. In one of the Toronto dailies there is a scant half column, while the amount of sports news in the other daily, is practically nil. Political matters, especially election news reported on clear-cut lines of the two parties, Conservatices and Liberals, are largely featured, and much space is given in both the city and town papers to European and other foreign news.
