The cooperation and aid of everyone is asked in filling out these reports and turning them joke. Morals We have been criticised, sometimes severely, in the past month, for not printing or publishing court cases In which the morals of young people were questioned. True, there have been a faumber of these and perhaps' In several Instances, full Information should be given to the, public through the medium of the press. However, be that as It may, we like to look at this particular problem from a different angle. Through this newspaper, we desire to keep the community informed on church and fraternal activities, the progress of its schools, the conduct of its government. In the furtherance of every worthwhile enterprise, we desire this newspaper to wield diverse interest and alms Into a cohesive whole, united toward a common goal. And by friendly encouragement and praise we wish to add stimulus to achievement But In the hour of tragedy, scandal and slander' not being our stock in trade, we wish, to lighten the burden by silence. It must be remembered that this is not a tabloid but Just a hometown newspaper, with home-towactivities. Probably there Is just cause for criticism relative to the conduct of some of our young people but we still believe that silence or words of encouragement and praise are better weapons. , We grant there are three or four residents whom this community would be better without--me- n and women, for they are no longer boys or girls by their actions wiio should be given a one-wrailroad ticket to some distant place. But at the present time our civilization has not progressed or stepped back, whichever you prefer. to such citizens. , We are acquainted with aU the particulars in these local cases and In several instances, have become so dlagqrated with the utter rottenness of tbs affair, that we couldnt possibly put the facts In print On the other hand, several cues are deserving of the utmost consideration and pity for all Involved. Perhaps Iras tangible, but nevertheless very real, we wish to contribute to maintain a high level of general character and foster the best traditions of public and private conduct Perhaps, we feel by this attitude, we might aid some youngster to get his feet planted again on the right road.
