A NEWS SERVICE WITHOUT

There is ample justification for the
claim made by THE CHICAGO RECORD

service that is without parallel in range
and completeness. In addition to the
independent news facilities of The REC

complete news service OF the New York

sidered that its news columns are sup

will be seen that THE RECoRD-HERALD
