New Order Regarding Subscriptions
to Newspapers and Periodicals.

The post Office department has made a
ruling regarding the matter of extend
ing credit to subscribers for newspapers
and periodicals which is of interest
alike to both publishers and subscrib-
ers. The order is as follows;
"A reasonable time will be allowed
publishers to secure renewals of sub
scriptions. but unless subscriptions are
expressly renewed after the term for
which they are paid. within the follow
ing periods, dailies within three
months, triweeklies within six months,
semiweeklies within nine months,
weeklies within one year, semi
monthlies within three months, month
lies within four months, bimonthlies
within six months, quarterlies within
six months, they shall not be counted
in the legitimate list of subscribers, and
copies mailed on account thereof shall
| not be accepted for mailing at the
second class postage rate of one cent a
pound, but may be mailed at the trans
lent second-class postage rate of one
cent for each four ounces or fraction
thereof, prepaid by stamps affixed.
The right of publisher to extend
credit for subscription to his publica-
tion is not denied or questioned, but his
| compliance or noncompliance with the
| regulation will be taken into considera-
ton in determining whether the publ
cation is entitled to transmission at the
second class postage rates"
This rule went into effect January
1st but publishers are given until April
1st to make collections and get their
lists in shape to conform to the order.
The order may Icause some embarass-
ments. and understanding for it will
frequently result in papers being dis
continued because it may not be con-
venient for the subscriber to pay within
| the time fixed. However, there is but
one thing for publishers to do and that
is to live up to the regulation. This be-
ing so we wish to call the attention of
all our subscribers to the Importance of
| paying up any back subscription and
renewing at once. Better attend to
this right away.

New Management for the o. q C. e,
Company. a.

President Stephenson, of the Owosso
81 Corunna Electric Co., was in the
city several days last week. Before
leaving on Saturday he announced that
the resignation of Lawrence Manning,
for three and one-half years manager of
the plant, had been accepted, and that
Robert l. Gale and Eugene S. Brewer
would become joint managers. Also
that E. A. Garrison had been succeeded
as collector and meter reader by Walter
r. Clingenpeel. No one could have
worked harder than Mr.. Manning to
keep the plant in running order and he
is certainly entitled to great credit for
what he has done. A man with less
determination would have given up in
disgust long ago. Mr.. Stephenson
gives assurance that the new managers
will not be hampered as Mr. Manning
has been.
