The Herald gets what Is known as
an ad clip service. That Is, It la fur
nished with copies of advertisements
appearing In leading papers through
out the United States. We are just
In receipt of our latest quota, and an
examination discloses the fact that
there Is not a single store offering a
standard article of wearing apparel
or a staple article of men's furnish
ings at a bargain. .
This talk about "things must come,
down," la pure moonshine, I'rlces
can't come down. The selling price
of everything Is governed by the cost
of production and supply and de
mand. Everyone known that the cost
of producing everything it up'and It
Is going to stay up. EvsryoUe knows
that there Is a scarcity of every arti
cle and that there wilt be for years.

You mil see from the above, all of which appeared during the past week, that the newsprint scarcity and
high price is not confined to Klamath Falls or any particular section it is general throughout the United
States and Canada. The Herald has felt the pinch since lust fall. The subscription rate should have been
raised months ago, but it was kept at the old figure in the hope that some other wav out could be found.
That hope, however, was useless and The Herald, like all dailies throughout the nation, had to bow to the
inevitable and raise its subscription price.
Beginning June 1, the subscription price of The Herald will be: " . ,

SPECIAL OFFER
No assurance can be given at this time that these rates will remain in effect for any stated length of time.
Indications now are that they will have to be advanced again by October 1, unless some of the plans
under consideration for economizing on the use of paper will result in a decided saving.
The Herald has no desire to place aivextra burden upon its subscribers, any more than subscribers have no
aesire 10 place an extra burden on 'J ne Herald. J- or that reason a special subscription offer is being
made during the month of May, whereby you can effect a big.saving for the next year. In order to mitke
this special offer it will be necessaiy for The Herald to invest all of the money paid on these special sub
scriptions in paper. This offer closes May 31. Under this offer the iates will be:
"I can trust my
georgette lingerie to my
wonderful 7hor!"
So says a woman who owns one. "And baby's fin
est cloches, his soft flannels, lacy undcr-things all
go into the smooth maple cylinder. And after a few
minutes of surging, tossing and chugging in the
foamy suds, out they come so clean! And as care-, ,
fully handled all the while as though I had washed
them by hand. Indeed, I find they actually last longer
than with hand laundering!" And you'll find all this
true and you'll save time and weariness and pretty
hands as well!
