the surest indication that the vernal
season is at hand beinsr the village
blacksmith shop. James Chalmers
has been kept busy for several days
repairing machinery and building
new parts, as well as fitting hor.es
with new shoes.
Next week we are going to send a statement of
subscription to each of our subscribers who is de
linquent on our books. We do not like to do this,
but there is a limit to all things and we have about
reached the limit of carrying a list of people on
our cards who make no effort to come in and pay
up. ..It takes money to run a newspaper, and that
is what we are in business for.
One delinquent does not cut much figure, but
when there are numbers who are in arrears the
aggregate amounts to quite a snug sum. ..There
are several hundreds of dolars owing to us and we
shall now insist that they be paid. You take the
paper and enjoy reading it, otherwist you would
order it discontinued. We ask that , you be as
square with us as you are with your grocer. All
we watn is an even break will you do your part
in seeing that we get it?
