Appeal Made For
Society News To
Be fn Or* Time
There apparently, i; still some
misunderstanding about th>- time
society news should be in. Sev-
eral times we have rail notices
regarding the fact that news is
not news unless it is in the
paper immediately aftei> it lutp-
pens. The newsppuer has lost
its' primary function, especially
on local news, if it prints stories
more thun 24 hours old. We feel
sure that our readers-realize this i
and don't- want stories of local
interest that are two and three
days old. Our effort to get a||
news in on time is so that our
readers will have better reading.
If ail event occurs one day,
ither during the afternoon or
evening, then the information
must be in this office beforr
10:30 b. m. the next day. We
do want stories and information
nn everything that hapnens in
Hreckenridge which is of inter-
est to loca1 citizens. This appeal
is made especialy to club re-
porters and any cooperation on
this matter will be greatly ap-
preciated. Thanks a lot!
