1NTED NEXT WEEK
GET
It's Get Acquainted Week next
week! Because of the influx of
many newcomers into the area
in recent months the Pilot is
planning a get-acquainted issue
next week.
The issue will be unique in
several ways. F irst, it will be
distributed to everyone in the en
tire area at no cost. Subscribers
will receive their regular copy
of the Pilot, but all those not reg
ularly on the mailing list, intht
area between Smith River and
Pistol River will also receive a
paper.
But, even better, each issue
of the Pilot will have an individ
ual number imprinted on th e
masthead. Each number, will
be different, of course.
Many of the merchants will
have numbers in their ads, and
or in their windows, and if the
corresponding number is brought
in from the Pilot a prize will be
awarded. Also the Pilot x*ill be
awarding free su b sc rip tio n s
through the use of the numbers.
Watch for the next issue—it
should be a good one
