From page A4
that I would like to talk about the value of the local newspaper.
The Log Cabin Democrat has been around since July of 1879 and has served us well. There is just a ton of local news every week that we can only get from our local newspaper, such as sporting events, obituaries, marriages, and things of interest to us here in Conway that others could care less about.
Did I mention that local advertisers use the Cabin to let us know about specials they are running this week?
You may know that Conway is now the fastest growing city in our state, and one of the fastest growing in the nation. Having a great newspaper is very important to all concerned.
It will take a little while to get things sorted out, but soon it will be just a bump in the road. If you don’t have email, call the Conway Corporation and get it set up so you don’t miss an issue.
I will confess that most young people know much more about email, smart phones, Facebook and all the rest than I do, but I am learning.
When I found out about the changes the Cabin is making, I just said, “We will make it work” and we will. You know, “It’s your attitude and not your aptitude that will determine your altitude.” To God be the glory.
