He could recall the pet projects of many editors, the things they had fought for and successfully too, in the interests of their community. At the head table with Mr. Temâ€" plin were President J. H. Saunders of the Western Fair; W. H. Porter, editor of The Farmers Advocate; Charles Thomas, general manager of The London Free Press, and A. R. Ford, managing editor of The Free Press. _ Mr. Templin extended congratulaâ€" tions to The London Free Press for the thorough manner in which it covered Western Ontario and its history. . __ _ _ . _ The weekly editors wrote about local subjects and they knew what they were talkjng about.

They would be foolish if they were. They were interested in the welfare of the town and they did their part to promote. But that duty discharged, they were willing to drop back in their place and allow others to do the running. oo 22 Sometimes they were accused of trying to run their town. Not often were the ministers, doctors, or merâ€" chants accused of doing this. 1 _ One other useful thing they did and that was to teach many young men to be printers.
