We Greet N. H. Newspaper 150 Years Old
Greetings to the Keene Evening Sentinel , which has re-
cently celebrated its scsqtticentennial , having been established in
1799. Its anniversary edition contains 90 pages of news and a
history of the Sentinel, an account of industry and business, ag-
riculture and forestry, the growth of local government in Keene,
New Hampshire , the story of education and organizations, a
resume of hurricane , fires and floods, a reproduction of Volume
I Number 1. reminiscences , the great blizzard of 1888, and other
features.
On the front page is a picture of the Sentinel's oldest sub-
scriber , Charles Mason White of Dorchester, Massachusetts,
but a native of Keene, which he left in 1871 to make his home
in Boston. Mr. White celebrates his 99th birthday next month.
In this issue the oldest subscriber writes a letter of reminiscence.
Patriot readers may recall Mr. White as the author of a letter
or two to the Patriot in recent months.
The Sentinel is published daily in Keene. In the ISO years
of its life, 17 persons have been proprietors and the present co-
publisher , John W. Prentiss, is the great grandson of the founder ,
John Prentiss. The paper was originally called the New Hamp-
shire Sentinel.
It is stated in this anniversary issue that Dartmouth College
has all but three issues of all copies of the Sentinel ever pub-
lished ; and, of these three, the Library of Congress has one, and
the American Antiquarian Society in Worcester , Massachusetts,
has the other two in its collection.
Pan America Observes Its Day
Today is Pan American Day and this week is Pan Ameri-
can Week. The observance has been set as an anniversary of the
first International Conference of American States, which con-
vened 59 years ago at Washington, D. C, in taking the initial
step toward unity among the Americas and inter-American soli-
darity.
Last April, representatives of the 21 governments of the
American Republics met at Bogato, Colombia, and signed the
Charter of the Organization of American States, and this treaty
is an important step forward in inter-American relationships,
which include the scientific, cultural, political, educational, and
trade aspects.
All 21 republics observe Pan American Day, in the interests
of bringing about a closer understanding among the countries
of the Western Hemisphere;
The Headquarters of the Pan American Society of New
England , Inc., are at 75 Newbury Street, Boston 16.
