Voice of the 9 People DEFENSE DAY The man who weras a good overcoat to ward off the cold of winter is using more than mere common sense; he is using preventive sense, No one would accuse him of Attacking winter. In fact, the reverse is true; he Is defending himself against the snow and cold of winter. This is the case with the holding of.

Defense Day. When the United States was forced to enter the World war, there was a great loss, not only of time anl material advantages, but of lives of many young men who fought for their country. No one knew exactly what to do. Everybody was waiting for the Higher Ups to say what should be done but even they were not ready. Defense Day is simply your countrys effort to remind you, to keep you alert, to have you mentally prepared, so that we may avoid what happened in the last wa if we should ever again be plunged into war.

If they dont like the editor, they feel that they must knock the paper and stand in the way of its success whenever possible.

They do not realize that the local paper is as much a part of the community as the schools, churches or anything else. The newspaper is different from any other business, it is a community affair. Itis for service to the people and not for an individual. You may not like the editor and the editor may not loveyou any too well but the paper is responsible, does just as much for you as thej service rendered others. There is nothing personal with it; it is here for a purpose and that purpose Is to do what good it can in every way it can, and the greater the support of it undertakes to serve the better service it can render.

It takes the people to make a good newspaper, and without the help of the people no one can run a successful newspaper.
