40-. Cheapest Thin in a
Modern World
The publisher of an important Canadian
daily newspaper has said in his newspaper
this :
TUB newspaper is about the cheapest thing in 'the modern world
for its value, If nothing else were considered save the usefulness
of the advertisements and the market prices, to the average home
a dollar spent in newspapers must mean the saving of many dollars in
the hone.
It is nob necessary to argue the value to you of your hone new4-
paper. But we ask this of you: Isn't three cents a week little enough
foe The News -Record, which gathers for you all the news of Huron!'
No city daily can do what The News -Record is doing for and in this
county. It does not give you with desired fullness the news of Varna,
Bayfield, Brucefleld, Holrnesville, Londesboro, Etc, It does not tell
yon what all the local merchants have to offer, Local news and hap-
penings are told only sufflcienbly in a local newspaper,
The prion the The News -Record becomes B1.50 on and after
January 15th. This increase of 50 cents a year is made
necessary by rising costs in every direction—paper, ink,
• type, wages, cost of living, and other things,
the are eciueernecl about is ti1at you value your weekly
newspaper to continue as a subscriber at the higher rate,
Three brown coppers a week ! You cannot say you cannot
afford them.. They are the prion of a postage stamp, half the price of
a "smoke," the money you would give a ehiild to buy candy with, half
the price of a pair of laces,
