The piece ends with a jab at rising postage costs and a caller’s plea to keep his paper coming.
A reader argues against discouraging smokers while warning about government overreach and asset seizure in drug busts. The letter cites a Herald series, notes no drugs found, and urges individual thinking and local participation by calling 242-4700 between 5 p.m. and 6 a.m. Monday.
World Features Syndicate notes quirky name changes from Idaho to Colorado, Cape of Good Hope to Cape of Storms, Tahiti to King George's Island, Grand Canyon to Big Canyon, and Moscow Idaho to Hog Heaven, reflecting historic or playful renamings.
