BQLillD HITLER CRY PEACE Preffires For News Rev I Circulation Manager Ducks Tougn Announcement Job Mr. Anonymous Comes to Rescue Bargain Days Due Oct. 1 Says "Me;" Subscription Price Goes Up Thereafter Since the handling of the News-Review's circulation is his job and the real reason for paying him his salary, I suppose it is no more than natural that when an announcement relative lo circulation matters is to be made, his editor asks the circulation man, and in the case of the News-Review, the author (or rather the perpetrator) of the "Ramblings" column to make it. 1 he ed. goes on the theory, I reckon, that a little extra writing won't hurt the gent any, and that it's hard enough to get him to earn his keep anyhow. Yet (would you believe it) iu spite of thi imposed obliga tion to his boss, his paper and even to himself, the scoundrel ran They has been offered its readers by the News-Review for the past several years, during which time they may effect a consider able, saving simply by subscribing for a year at this bargain rate. 1 have done a right good job of taking advantage of the offer It's not too easy to know just what to say this time. I no tice that the gent alluded to above came out pointblank one year and stated the bargain rate would be open for a certain number of days; again, he said just a few days, and kept cr open for ten, threatening a possible rise the last time he said it wouldn't everybody they better subscribe thing was going it looked like Lverybody cud subscribe, and 1 crying Wolf, since the price has But it's going to this year. on the job; having missed his prediction twice, he couldn t stand the strain of a third onel I'm supposed to make two announcements, and that is one of them. After the I 6th of October the subscription price of the News-Review will rise from $4.00 per year by mail, as at pres ent, to $5.00; from three months for $1.00, as it is now, to $1.25, and one month will cost 60 cents. The price of the paper by carrier in Roseburg will rise from its present level of one year for $6.00, to $7.80, and from 50 cents per month to 65 cents. Well, that's off my chest, and I'm glad of it. It's always so much more pleasant to announce a reduction in price, than it is a boost; another reason, probably, why the circulating gent heretofore mentioned, ran out on this job. Having worked up to it thus gradually, I come now to the second announcement 1 am to make, and this really is a pleasure. It mighty near compensates me for doing another man's work, as I have had to do today: Just prior to this price boost from October 1st to the 16th, inclusive, to be exact, the News-Review will go on sale at the old depression bargain rate of one year's subscription by mail for $3.00, and one year's subscription by carrier in Rose burg for $4.50. This will give everyone an opportunity to insure himself not only against this price boost in the immediate offing for an other year, but from any further ones made imperative by steadily increasing production costs. You know, usually it's the practice in the case of a price boosl, to up the ante without giving folks a chance to beat the rap; but 1 guess the News-Review feels as if its customers had been mighty good to it when it needed a lift now and then, and is glad to return the favor in this way.
