Here are some suggestions for revenue-generators on Oct. 18th:
- Persons Day (Canada)
- Sweetest Day
- World Menopause Day
- Chuck Berry's Birthday
- Adopt-A-Shelter-Dog Month
Persons Day in Canada celebrates the anniversary of the 1929 ruling that women are considered persons in Canada. A way to celebrate this day for Canadian newspapers might be to highlight some of the contributions women have made in their communities and to Canadian society. Or perhaps a page advertising businesses all owned and/or operated or catering to women would be a nice way to celebrate half the population's personhood.
Sweetest Day was invented by a worker in a candy company who thought it might be nice to deliver sweets to the sick and less fortunate. It is celebrated by doing something kind for someone else, less fortunate or not. One way to observe this day might be to feature a "Sweet Nothings" page in which readers can buy space to tell their loved ones how much they care, or to just thank someone important in their life.
