11th, 1919 A TRUST WHAT IS IT? OUR FIRST FAILURE For the first time The Beacon-News, under the present management, is forced to beg the kind indulgence of its readers for failure to issue. Last week was the first time since the present editor has been at the helm that the old Beacon-News has failed to appear.

Upon the day we were to Wave, Mr. Turner, who is the heart of the mechanical department, was stricken down with the "flu," and under the attack of the prevailing malady was confined to his bed for about a week.

This left The Beacon-News floundering around in the storm of circumstances without a pilot or a rndder. We sent out numerous S. O. S. calls, bat failed to receive a single response.

Many businesses have been forced, en account of the influenza, to suffer inconveniences and we suppose we have no right to expect to be made any exception. However, we do hope that our patrons and friends, both of the subscription list of The Beacon-News and our job department, will bear with us for a few days until we can regain our equilibrium, at which time we promise to turn out all work as promptly anc" satisfactorily as we have been enabled to do in the past.
