Herald Has Birthday.
The Hyder Weekly Herald
enters today upon its eleventh
year of existence, the present
issue being Number One of i
Volume Eleven.
Many small-town newspapers ■
see in their birthdays an occas i
ion for a lot oif moralizing and j
usually devote considerable !
space to reminding the “dear |
subscriber” of what they have |
done for the benefit of the •
community, with considerable -
personal back-patting in the j
process.
However, all we have to say
is that we hope that long be
fore our next eleventh birthday
comes around the Herald will
have acquired the status of an
uptodate daily publication and
Hyder will be the most pros
perous and progressive mining
camp in Alaska; as we are con
fident it will be in time, in
spite -of present set-backs and
disappointment®.
