What good are a million subscribers if the i newspaper isnt read? Publications the world over would gladly give away subscriptions to gain a large circulation if advertisers would stand for it.

But experienced advertisers know that a subscriber is not a reader unless he wants the publication and Is willing to pay for it. For if the newspaper isnt read the advertisement isnt even seen. The Daily News-Banner does, and has always, run on a paid in advance basis. Its subscribers pay $3.00 and $5.00 a vear for it. Tliev wait for it, they rely on if, read and re-read it, and often we have found) pass it along to a non-subscribing neighbor.

We sell our efforts to the reader and get a fair price for it. firsts 36 37; firsts 34 354; pack- BETTY BLURBS CJK (X Automobiles now have front-wheel drives, but the back-seat driver remains in the rear."
