That the town is inl“csted with back
slapping and loafing bootleggers is an
observation, made entirely by the author
of the- Frink Message* • • .The Beacon has
been oblivious to this action.
Could a perron, interested in a town
to the extent of publishing a paper bjp
disinterested enough in tho issues of
con3orn affecting that town to keep hiB
personality from ’showing through1 in
the editorial articles* Of course not*
Look at the Pink Message, for instance*
A few lines, startlingly abrupt—yet
a nice sized piece of the author’s
personality is obvious* As a criticism
of the paper, this is indeed a weak
point,
I have nothing in common with a peiv
son so embittered as to poisen his
criticism by alluding to the suffering
and sickness of a little boy and the
sorrow it has brought to those who love
hinu My Christian background forbids
such vicious weapons on irrelevant
issues!-'

Reverse the fractions on the last criti
