High School Contest.

For weeks past the High School
.eachers and pupils have been making
great preparations for the celebration
If the one hundred and seventy-fifth
anniversary of the birth of the Faith
r of Our Country.
On this day an oratorical contest
held and in connection with this a
musical program is furnished.
On Friday evening this entertain
lent was given at the opera house.

The Star had a pleasant call last
evening from Mr.. V. p. Smith, one of
the substantial farmers of the Waca-
hoota section. He is in the city at
tending a meeting of the stewards of
the Methodist church from the Gaines
vile district that met this morning at
the home Of Presiding Elder Bridges
to consider the state of the church,
financially. MIR. Smith presented us
with several copies of c. A. Windle' S
"Gatling Gum" published at Chicago,
periodical full TO the brim with stir
ring and strong arguments on cOnsti-
tutional liberty, antitrust, anti-im-
perialism. against inordinate greed,
Hartman, protection and destiny. Mr.
Smith was also commissioned to in
terview Tax Collector E. L. Carney
and Registration Officer Beck to ascer-
tain if the report was true that the
saloon men and anti-saloon men had
paid the poll tax of every voter in that
precinct. so they would be qualified to
vote in the coming wet or dry cleo
ton. His impression was that the re.
port was too gooe to be true. Mr.
Smith said the farmers in his sec
ton had made good crops and there
was plenty for all.

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS

On or before the 10th day of jan
Uary. 1908, all subscriptions to the
Evening Star that are more than one
year in arrears will be discontinued.
The subscription price of the Even
ing Star is so cents a month OF s. per
year IN ADVANCE. Hereafter the
two rates will be strictly enforced: if
one pays by the month it will be so
cents. If he pays after several months
have elapsed the srrearage will be
charged at the monthly and not the
yearly, or advance rate. Several of
our old friends are going to do with
out the Star unless their accounts are
paid up. AT the present excessively
high prices of paper, cost of labor
and material. it is business suicide to
carry people for two to four years for
a daily paper and then settle, if at all.
by paying the cash in advance rate.
The paper is far better off TO cut off
all such Indifferent subscribers, and
the Star viii do so in future.
Would your grocer sell you a barrel
Of -four at 10 per cent discount over
a twenty pound sack and let you owe
him several years for it? This is what
the newspaper often does. The major-
ity of the Stars subscribers pay for
the paper a year in advance some pay
quarterly in advance, others pay
monthIy-either way is satisfactory.
1t costs too much to produce a paper
and the margin Of profit is too small
TO do a long credit business. All of
the papers throughout the country are
shutting off on il and the Star along
with others will do so in future.
