NEWS CO. HNiSHES 1 ST
YEAR AFTER MERGER
CONSOLIDATION   OF   NEWS   AND
TIME*  MARKS  EPOCH   IN
LOCAL  PAPER.
The Amherst News company finishes with this Issue its trst year of
business slnee the consolidation of
that company with the Amherst Times
which took place May 6, 1918. The
company continued to be called the
Amherst News Co. and B. A. Little,
owner and manager of the Amherst
Times and the Little Print Shop assumed the duties of manager while
H. B. Hurst manager ot the former
Amherst News company became assistant manager.
Since that time the News company
haa aeen Ita greatest growth since
the establishment of the company.
The volume of business and work
turned out haa reached a high mark
and everyone in general has been well
satisfied in the past year with the
merger.
Newspaper Grows  Rapidly.
The consolidation of the two newspapers was perhaps the most important point of the whole event. Before
the merger each paper was able to
thrive, but no great success came to
either. The circulation at both papers
was small. Much rivalry was shown
tn the coulmns of both papers. All
the news was claimed to have been
covered by each paper, but scoops
were bound to come about. The advertisers of both papers were not
getting full value from their space
because of the small circulation. In
order to roach all the people It was
necessary to advertise in both papers.
But with the consolidation all these
bad points and difficulties were eliminated. The paper, which waa named
the Amherst News-Times has worked
for one purpose, to give the readers
the beet efforts of the entire combined
force. Since that time the paper haa
been the beat ever printed by any
publisher in this vicinity. The news
field haa been well covered and many
features, Interesting to all readers
were added to Its columns. The editorial column waa made larger and
better, something which most country papers lack. The circulation was
raised to a high mark and every resident of Amherst haa become Interests** la their home paper.
Job Work  Increases.
The newspaper of the consolidated
concern did not only increase, but tbe
Job department increased materially.
More help waa necessary to put out
the work and every customer has been
satined with the efforts of the mechanical force.
Soon after the consolidation the
Newa companw obtained several
monthly publications to print. They
' are the Cleveland Grocer, the Lorain
County Youth, the high school Bugle,
the Up-to-Date Distributer and the
Blyria Craftsman and at the present
\ time the company haa more in view.
The publishers of the papers have
been well pleased with the work.
Much linotype composition has been
done for nearby print shops which did
not have machines aa part of their
equipment. The entire force has been
bury working many hours overtime
to keep the output of the plant going
out as fast as orders come in.
The llrst dividend ever paid to the.
stockholders was issued Jan. 1, 1920
which amounted to 4 per cent
Little Leavee Company.
March 1, 1920, B. A. Little, original
manager of the consolidated company
handed his resignation to the board
of directors. He accepted a position
as managing editor of the Bean Bag
of Lansing, Mich., and believes he has
bettered himself.
The News company as well as the
people of Amherst fully appreciate
the efforts of Mr. Little.    .
Succeeding Mr.  Little aa manager
is R. L. Petty, former foreman of the
Century Printing company' of Blyria.
To Keep It  Up.
The News company has haa a fine
record In the past year and intends
to keep it up to a high atandard. The
policy of the paper will continue to
be to give the people the beat efforts
of the entire staff.

The American Legion will hold a
meeting in the town hall Friday evening of thla week. The offlc rs nnd

to get all members out If possible.

INTO DISTRICTS.

atlon of the Executive Committee of

Ulate with the Lorain County Church

last week. The president of tbe Sunday School Association becomes ex-
officio a member of the executive committee of the Church Federation.

which the religious activities of the
county would be strengthened by
closer co-operation of Christian forces
as planned through the Federation.
He emphasised the point that the Federation waa aa a matter of fact not
a new organisation, but simply a union
of churches, Sunday Schools and religious organisations already existing
throughout tbe country for mutual
assistance, in order that they would
not duplicate the efforts ot one another, and they might plan together
how to meet more adequately the
needs of the country for religious ministrations.

such as has been adopted In Lorain
County, is also being undertaken In

being Wayne county Michigan in
which Is located the city of Detroit
and Summit county, Ohio, where Akron Is located,

SUNDAY SCHOOLS REPRESENTED AT LORAIN
ONE OF THE  MOST  SUCCESSFUL
OF   ITS  KIND—  100 DELEGATES  REGISTER.
The recent convention of the Lorain
County Sunday School association
goes on record as one of the most successful meetings of its kind. It was
well attended by delegates from every township in the county. Forty

message of every speaker was eagerly heard and the discussions were entered Into with enthusiasm. The officers have been assured that the association successfully met Us obligation
to the schools of the county In so far
as the annual convention Is concerned.
But the obligations of the association do not end there. Such an organization should be of continual service to the individual schools composing It. Plana to this end were approved at the convention and will be
worked out in detail during the year.
The nest step la the formation of
'district associations within the county, a matter now under way as a beginning to making Lorain connty a
"front line county" in the eyes of the
state Sunday School association.

by May 15. About forty schools are
yet to file their reports*. Mr. Reader,
please ask your Sunday School superintendent if your school report has
been made out and returned. If not,
urge that It be tended to at once—unless you do not care to bave your
school line up as a progressive unit
