It dated Friday, December 27, beSheen of Smithfield. The issue lias special significance Smith-field cause it contains pictures and stories of the men from who served in World War I, nearly thirty years ago. In addition to its own value and interest, this old issue forcefully brings to our attention the fact that the nevvspaperf beside having news interest, also has historical interest. What more detailed history of the territory it serves can be found anywhere else? The files of a newspaper are filled with facts about the common, person that would never be recorded otherwise. Pick up a copy of your home town paper even one year old. How interesting it is to see what people were doing then. As the files take on age 10, 20, or 30 years, they take on greater value. Names of people who have since passed on will appear. Events half forgotten will be brought to mind to be lived over again. John A. Israelsen of Hyrum has filed every copy of the South Cache Courier since its founding thirty-seve- n years ago. Hfe has a history of Hyrum and South Cache that cannot be equalled. With the historical value In mind, we suggest that every reader submit news to the paper covering his actions, and that of his family and friends, that the record might be more complete for oncoming geneartions. We also suggest that a file be started of your weekly newspaper. Within two or three years, the satisfaction and thrill that will come with going through the files will be good payment for the effort.

Marshall benap imlieves in a mediately after lunch. To this, Mrs. Marshall attributes her husbands ability to remain relatively fresh despite the hectic war years. RepubliAPPEASING LABOR can leaders are worried over their alienation of labor so much so that they have trotted out one piece of legislation which no one ever expected to see at this congressional session the minimum wage act For months, Floridas Senator Pepper and other New Dealers have been trying to boost the minimum wage from 40 to 60 cents an hour. But Republicans balked. . . . Now, to appease rabort and to win over the poorest paid Speaker Joe Martin and Sen. Bob Taft have dusted off the minimum wage bill and hope to ram it through congress at this session. THE WRATH DEPARTMENT Ire and indignation have blazed around the White rt jester House, thanks to George Allen and Jim Farley with their kiss and tell literature. President Truman was plenty steamed up over Allens magazine epic on Two Years With Truman. The man angriest at Farley for his Roosevelt revelations is Democratic press agent Charlie Michelson. emeritus, of Charlies characterization Farley is unprintable. NEW PRESIDENTIAL VOICE Credit White House radio adviser J. Leonard Reinsch with the big improvement in President Trumans radio voice. After long and patient study, Reinsch found that the trouble with Mr. Trumans radio personality was that he talked too fast. Reinsch experimented with a number of gadgets, including a moving tape, before he clicked with the present successful formula. Now Reinsch has Mr, Trumans speeches typed in large letters with only one sentence to a page. He also has convinced Mr, Truman that no station would ever cut the President oft the air, no matter how slow his speech, and that he can take all the time he wants. Result: Mr. Truman now emphasizes every phrase, speaks easily, rarely stumbles.
