                  must be a new paper, because I've never heard of it." 
 The Daily Events, successor to The Springfield 
                  Express, is among Missouri's oldest newspapers, published 
                  continuously since 1881. Our name is literally translated from 
                  the Latin Acta Diurna, the first known newspaper, published around 
                  59 B.C. in Rome.
 
 Throughout our lifetime we have been dedicated to general items 
                  like legal notices and courthouse records. Self-promotional 
                  ads in the 1930s encouraged any business that extends credit 
                  to keep up with their customers by reading The Daily Events. 
                  That advice applies today. In our lengthy history, this newspaper 
                  has served a general audience that includes:
 - Law Firms
 - Financial Institutions
 - Real Estate Professionals
 - Savvy Investors
 - Full-time Credit Departments.
 
 We publish thorough, accurate information on court proceedings, 
                  real estate transactions, permits, licenses and normal business 
                  activity. Our informal slogan: If you've done it, we know 
                  it.
 
 For more than a century, many local people have made a lot of 
                  money - and avoided losing a lot of money - by investing some 
                  time each day to read The Daily Events.
