The“ Daily Mirror” and the “ Daily Express” both sell about four million copies every day. British families generally buy a newspaper every morning and two or three on Sundays. Besides the national papers, there is, however, another branch of the British press which sells almost as many copies. Local newspapers have a weekly circulation of 13 million. Almost every town and country area has one.

Editors prefer to rely on people who know the district well. A great deal of local news is regularly supplied by clubs and churches in the neighbourhood and it does not get out of date as quickly as national news. The editors must never fet that the success of any newspaper depends on advertising. They are usually anxious to keep the good will of local businessmen for this reason. But if the newspaper is well written and the news items have been carefully chosen to draw local readers, the businessmen are grately for the opportunity to keep their products in the public eyes. 5． Visitors to Britain are surprised to learn that ________.
