Editorial Today-Best of All Days YOU BET IT'S BEST OF AIL DAYS IN O' NEILL. TODAY. This newspaper is proud of O'Neill .and we're not ashamed to urlmit it. However, seldom does The Frontier have the opportunity to toot the horn of O'Neill so eloquently. Today (Thursday i we don’t mind a bit telling our readers that right now, today, and every day for that matter, life is Best of All right here in O'Neill. Yes, we sincerely lielieve we enjoy the Best of All times in this Best of All worlds right in our Best of All Towns. For a minute let's examine what O'Neill has over our bigger brothers Chicago, New York, I os Angeles. We have sincerity Our residents are, to tie somewhat trite, "true blue”. Our neighlmrs help us out when we need help. We can visit over the back fence. We can laugh and we can play. And we can work and enjoy doing it. Crime? We haven't much of that around here. Maybe a few Saturday night high jinks, but that is alxnit the extent of it. Friendliness? No one has to tell us aliout friendliness. It is a known fact that even a stranger can walk down our Main Street and tie greeted by a round of "hellos” and “good mornings”. We could go on and fill page after page of reasons why life in O'Neill is Best of All. And we at The Frontier feel fortunate to be able to coop erate with such formidable national concerns as Brer Rabbit Molasses, Red Star Yeast, Pillsbury Flour, Alcoa Wrap. Nestle’s and Van Camp’s in bringing the Best of All Days Cooking School to our city. Readers of this newspaper are encouraged to take an active part in this Best of All Days promo tion. We hope to see every homemaker in the community and surrounding area at the Cooking School Furthermore', we want to see area shoppers take advantage of the specially priced items on sale in our stores during this Best of All Days celebration. Best of All Days is a title which in itself gives forth with vim and vitality. Best of All Days means good times, laughs and pleasant memories. Make it a point to make Best of All Days here better than anywhere' else by attending The Frontier Cooking School Today. VAIJ*:.
