1wlcEA.wEEk NEWS RECORD

In announcing last week the
change to be made in the News
Record from a weekly to a twice-a-
week paper, mention was made OF
the colored magazine and comic sup.
plement that will be added, begin
ming with the issue of Saturday, jan
uary 16. For fear of misunder-
standing, we wish to state this sup
plement is not decided on as a per
manent change. 1t is in the nature
of an experiment. If our readers DC
not consider it an improvement, /
will be dropIel after a thorolgi !
trial, but something bet... "... -
added in it's place.
Another change or addition that
we know will be al improvement and
that will be permanent is a COM
plete summary of the news of Ore
gon and the Northwest particularly,
and of the wo Id generally. This
includes a special Washington, D. c.,
letter, and the Portland and Seattle
market reports.
The present News Record is fire.
quently praised for its local news
service. The twice a-week paper
will be even better in that respect,
as more space will be available for
that purpose.
The biggest single Improvement,
however will be in the county news
service, crampe1 heretofore for lack
of space. All the news of Joseph,
Lostine, Wallowa, Flora and the
North Country, the Promise Land,
Imnaha and the hill country, will be
gathered by a competent staff Of re-
porters whose instructions will be to
do all in their power to make their
sections known to the world through
the columns of the News Record
In short, the ideal of this paper
is to be a mirror Of the news Of
all Wal,owa county, and the editor
will do his utmost to realize that
ideal.
This office is equipped to do the
work. The machinery will in a few
days be connected up with electri-
cal power as we'll as gasoline, and
with first-class workmen in the shop,
if this prospectus Is not lived up to
the fellow who wrote this will be ID
blame. This is told so you will know
whom to kick
AS stated last week the price of
the twice a-week paper will neces-
sarily be increased, but paid in ad-
vcnce subscriptions at the present
rate will be acce pted until after the
changes go into effect.
