Ask For Advertising Rates.
Notices of garden parties:, lawn
socials, etc., gotten up;: to raise
money, ,are advertisements pure
and simple and, consequently, a
charge ,is made when they appear
in these columns.
Advertising, it might be' remark-
ed, is one of the chief sources of
revenue of a newspaper and when•
it runs free the publisher goes to,,
the wall.
Therefore, and if yon please,.
don't ask that your advertising,;
be "deadheaded."
