Local Business
Most local people take for
granted many services which
are provided for the
community by the hometown
newspaper The services are
often expensive for the
newspaper and free of charge
to the groups served.
The activites of civic
organization, athletic events,
business promotions, farm
development and social affairs
are good examples. Often these
activities would be dismal
failures without the free help
of the local newspaper. Some
of them owe their existence to
newspaper publicity
The editor of a Texas
weekly dramatized this
situation in a humorous
corumn. He said that he figured
it cost his newspaper S900
when a local girl got married.
This cost was figured on the
basic of type composition and
space used on stories on the
wedding and parties leading to
the wedding.
"This docs not iclude about
40 hours of tedious work on
the part of the society editor
telling about how beautiful and
charming the honorce
(sometimes as ugly as a mud
fence) was in chant illy lace,
black sheath, etc..."
