HATTEN | Reliable Biacksmiih AND AUTO REPAIR SHOP © O©© ©©©©©©©© Well, in a way, that’s what you often ask the news papers to do. You wait until the ninth hour to prepare your copy, and when it reaches the office you expect the compositors to do two hours’ work in one. It can’t be done. The result is that your advertisement is slapped to gether in great haste, with a chance for errors and with out proper display. It C2n’t be otherwise. Stop that old habit of putting off till the last day, the last hour and the last minute to send your copy to the newspaper office. Get it out early when you have time to think and prepare it properly. Then send it to the newspaper office two or three days ahead. That will give the news paper time to prepare your advertisement properly. You can see the logic of it. It will mean better ads, better service and better results. That’s what you want. That’s why you advertise. Give the newspaper a chance. Apply the Golden Rule. ■» Machinery Repairing oi all Kinds. Vet nonia Hall. Prizes Given One Block South of Bank U Vernonia, OreGon.
