A Challenge To The People
Of Our Home Town
T]he move started by friends of the
Press for a greater and bigger Denison
Press is gaining in momentum each day with
the phone and tjie mail bringing supporters
offering to do their part by a three month's
subscription at the price of only $1. Some
are even going beyond that.
Wjhen we announced the idea through
the columns of the Press at the suggestion
of a local friend, we feared that it might
not click, but the manner in which the re-
sponses are coming in it is most hearten-
ing and we believe we can secure tfie 600
persons, both old and new subscribers, who
will join' the movement.
One letter today says they hope that
the Press will not only be a larger paper for
the >-iamc price of 35 cents per montjh as
planned but tJiat we shall be able to employ
twice the number we stated such a back-
ing by the people would make possible.
When Denison people are brought to
see that it is just as vital for the welfare of
ihe city for t(hem to encourage promising
local industry as it is to seek for a new one,
they will do their part, we believe.
If we can secure 600.persons subscrib-
ing to the Press and paying tjie $1, this,
with what the paper already has, will en-
able us to expand to where we can not
enly give tjhe people a paper twice the ordi-
nary size of the Press and carrying what
the people want, all local news, but w,
will also be enabled to give employment to
at least ten more persons.
Here is your chance to sihow your
appreciation for a group of home boys who
started in fifteen years ago with $200 in
borrowed money and faith in Denison that
it would support a strictly home paper. To-
day the plant is at the point
wjhere it needs to enparge and the paper
ni:;de still better and the plan indicated
has been suggested by interested friends, aS
the way to do it. By such, means, all are
getting tiheir money's worth while at the
same time they are making it possible for
the paper to enlarge, give the home town
in better paper and your own sons employ-
ment.

Another Booster in Boarey
If a fellow ever gets more en-
couragement than can be handed
out by Louie Boarey, we will have
•to get more caapcity. A letter
'•from that fine booster Friday
^says he is for the Press in every
•way for it to make the grade on
(securing 600 friends who will
'place $1 on the barrel head for a
'three months' subscription to the
'daily in order that it may expand
<and enlarge. He says it is the
"Ibest little paper I know of and
'hope you will get the other 590 .•to
'.ve can have not a better paper,
'but a bigger one and that it will
'not only give employment to an
additional ten persons, but that
•instead twenty will be given em-
ployment and I wish you all pos-
sible success." And how many
wore friends are to he found in
Denison like that? Well, some are
.withholding their mimes, but
'they are backing us. If you ever
•had a desire to help a home insti-
tution or wanted a chance to do
•so, now you have it. Did you
•ever see a hound dog digging:
.frantically away and barking to
•get at the rabbit in the brush pile?
•Instinctively you wanted to go in
there and help get the brush out
■of the way. But you would not
•have that feeling if the dog sat
•down and howled. Now, broth-
ers and sisters, we are digging
•and yelling like the very dickens
to get the ralbbit in the brush pile
•and if that is any encouragment
•to you to lend a hand, then the
•way is wide open.
LandereVNot a jLeaner
• J. F. ^Landers, who recently re-
turned to Denisou and opened his
.store here after having started it!
•over at Paris, is not a leaner. Hej
•stands on his own ground and j
•helps support the town. There are
•too many of the kind of merchants
■here who come to lean and not
•hold up. They advertise at the
minimum margin, if at all. They
■never are quite ready to kick in
•with their part of the funds to
•boost good things for the town,
•but seems they come here with
•the idea of getting all they can
and when they can not pick
up anything more, are ready to
ship their goods to some of their
■cousins or uncles, or to a branch
store and let the fellows who are
not leaners carry on the town. It
would seem we would protect our-
selves against such fellows by
learning who really are the ones
who get under the ]oad and help
•bear it. Landers showed how he
stood for the town while here at
the head of the Perkins store for
several years. He is the type of
citizen and merchant any town
would like to have.
Along the News Beat
Jess Madden says that the num-
ber of people who spend their
good money for some darkey or
floating female to tell their "for-
tune" might be a surprise if the
people knew who they were. Jess
says his idea of the Bible is that
it is against such practices and
brands it as withcraft and sinful.
And who does not agree with him,
and yet who does not at times feel
the hunch to go in and have "your
fortune told" with the hope the
depressed spirit will be turned
up?. . , .And one of our reader',
who is also in one angle of the
newspaper business, says that he
thinks the manner in which mar-
ried women seem to be Tacking in
their respect for their husband's
name is something that is a grow-
ing and wrong practice. For in-
stance, he says they use their own
given name and only the laat
name of the hubby. He says from
the manner in which so many
seek divorce, it might be they do
not want to let the people forget
their first name. They usually
ask for their maid'en name back,
so they have the battle half won
from the start in the way of not
entirely losing their identity as
to name when they get married, j
Anyhow this business of getting;
married is something you don't
know about until you experience
it, nnd if you get stung a little
bit in the deal, on either sile, re-
member the old aphorism that "it
is better to bear with the ills you
have than to fly to those of
which you do not know." ....
And while we are on the subject,
a party says he believes that mar-
riage should be "like the Bible
says" and then he quoted "until
