Another Week
In view of the fact that
a large number of our sub
scribers and several new
subscribers taking advan
tage of the SPECIAL One
Year subscription rate, ex
piring today, the publish
ers have decided to extend
the period of this SPEC
IAL rate for one more
week, in order to give oth
ers who might have forgot-1
ten or overlooked taking
advantage of this special
yearly offer.
Therefore, the time has
been advanced until next
Saturday, Feb. 22. Here is
your chance to save $9 out
of $24 on your year’s sub
scription.
As an example—If you
buy a paper each evening,
from the newsboys paying
them 10 cents, your yearly
payments will amount to
$31.20; thus it is easily or
readily seen that by sub
scribing and paying $15 in
advance your are making a
saving of $16.20 per year.
