To Our Subscribers:
WE RETURN TO THE
s
Paid-in-Advance Basis
January I, 1940
HE PUBLISHERS deeply appreciate the consider
ate reception and generous response given our field con
tact representative in the last few weeks. Especially en
couraging have been the compliments paid the paper
itself, which make the publishers feel their efforts to
give Morrow County a live local, newspaper have not
been fruitless.
Days of depression, in which this paper attempted to
give" as well as "take," caused discontinuance of the
paid-in-advance" policy of subscription accounts for
several years, and to give credit to those who desired to
have the paper keep coming. Due to this situation, a
serious number of arrearages accrued, necessitating
special collection effort, not only to bring in needed rev-'
enue, but to comply with federal postal regulations.
Believing that both the newspaper and the subscriber
will be benefitted by such a policy in future, as well as to
prevent infringement of postal regulations which jeop
ardize this papers7 mailing privileges, we are returning
to a strictly "paid-in-advance" policy of subscription ac
counts begnning January 1, 1940, at which time any ac
count six months or more in arrears will be closed and
the subscription discontinued.
After January 1, 1940, each subscriber will receive no
tice 30 days prior to date of subscription expiration, and
no subscription account will be carried for more than
six months.
Again we thank all our subscribers for their favorable
consideration.
