||?t Herald anil Jems. Entered at the Postcffice at NewIsrry, S. C., as 2nd class matter. E. H. AULL, EDITOR. Friday, September 17, 1915. OSE YEAR FOR $1.19. The Herald and News or the Observer either one is worth $2 per year of any man's good money. But for the next thirty days we are going to sell you The Herald and News a year for $1.19. As we have said before, we have been running the paper for the past six months or longer without enforcing the rule heretofore adopted of Tiv that in thai CS.2SK iJLL ttU w? c uu\i m* short time we have an accumulation 5'' of just about 800 subscribers whose time is out We want to give those an opportunity to catch up. At the same time we want to treat those who have paid fairly. So we are ? going to sell the paper for one year at the price quoted. As a rule we pay "ont frvr mil action and we incu tj WMV are by this plan giving the subscriber the opportunity to make that commission himself. Xo subscription taken for less than one year at this price and none taken after the 15th of October at the price. And on the first of November it is our purpose to go back to the cash in advance system, as we hAiipvo it works better for the pub lisher and the subscriber. (The past summer has been a hard oie and we are glad that we have been able to carry so many over, but now that busiiness is abetter and the price of coiion is above ten cents there is no reason for you not to pay the editor the small amount this is due him. A few have paid this week. They ziT-o/iif -fr\y ov+ra Sfl will UC giVClX V,i VUil Wiv w?, cents. We want to treat all alike and . be fair and square. We hope that all those who are in arrears will come along and take advantage of this reImarkable offer. We do not want any more contests. The manager usually .gets all the money and the editor is ft Hrv Tnripr t'his nlan we sive the commission to the subscriber. Do not ? . _ * wait until the last day, but come along and pay the small amount and get your paper for one year. Thj^ applies to old and new subscribers alike. Wte want to get our list a paid in^aavance list once more. It is better for all of us. Many of the subscribers have expressed their appreciation of our having carried them during the summer. 'Every one on the list has the priv f.ege of getting one year for the next thirty days at 'the price?$1.19. It is ' oo cheap, but we need the money and we want to give you an inducement to ^et in advance again. ^ * We are going to print a better newspaper than we have ever printed. We ?.re still on the job and not very stil cither. We are going to make The Herald and News, as we have always r rwie a teal newsDaDer and all sides of any question will be given a fair ceal. Remember, this offer holds good only to the loth of October. Xo subscriptions taken at that price after that cate. And we are doing this only to induce those who are in arrears to catch *up, and in order to be fair we are going to make the offer open to all?one ; ear for $1.19. Come right along while ( :e water is fine. Cotton ten cents and s>:ill going up. it may be 15 cents by flie 15th of October. We hope it will. \ OURSELVES TO BLAME. We were in just a little hard luck cn the Tuesday issue. A pretty good 'Lie of ads came, and, of course, we t >ust take care of them, and then they < I ive been so rare for the past several ' onths that possibly the coming of *';em just a little demoralized the f ;rce. Anyway, one man went off sick ; noon and we were already just a litre short of force. But we got there r. 1 the same and will continue to do so. We missed some of the evening mail, hich we regret. We would have been , be to have gotten all of the county wo moil in tVio rvffipp ir> timp tn rpafh e evening train, but Uncle Sam does >t permit his help to be accommodat% by working a little overtime, and 3 were a few minutes after half-past e mmv . .with a few packages, and the cjor was closed at the postoffice. We feu... . ; do not attach any blame to the young man at the postoffice who makes the mail ready, because we were at fault in being late. Fi\e minutes longer, , which would have been twenty minutes ' before the train, would have permitted us to make that mail in full, but we recognize the government rules which the employes are required to observe. It reminds us of a tale we heard of an Irishman who belonged to the union which did not permit its members to , work more than eight hours a day. ; This member wa6 shipwrecked and he was a good swimmer, and after swimming for eight hours he w-as within a few minutes of the shore and safety, . but he remembered the requirements of the union, as to the number of hours he should work, and he quit, though still strong, and he went down to a watery grave rather than violate the , regulations of the union and work a i few minutes overtime. In this instance we were at fault. We find the officials at the postoffice here very obliging and courteous and ac- , commodating. We mention this to say that we will endeavor to be on time in the future and as soon as we get mat1 I ters adjusted to the changes which have taken place in the office we will be on time. Our advertisers car: greatly help us by not waiting until the day we go to press to give us the ( copy for their ads. Several little errors crept into the ; paper in the rush. This is almost un- : avoidable. We appreciate the good work of our . correspondents and ask them to con- j i * I tinue sending in the news of their lo- < calities. We are pleased to have the 1 1 news. < Uhis is a good time to buy The Her- ; aid and News. You may never have another opportunity to buy it at the j( same price. It is too cheap, we knew, j but we want to give every one an op-! portunity to get in advance again.., And besides it costs us about. 20 ner! 1 cent to collect and we are offering to give.the commission to each subscrib-i er. The offer positively will not be extended beyond the 15th of October. , And on the first of November we are again going to adopt the cash in ad- j I vance system, because we think it is! better for the subscriber and the pub lisher.
