READY PRINT SERVICE.
FOR OPTIMIST

Our readers nave noticed that for
the past month this paper has been
using a ready print service for the
four inside pages. Many arguments
in favor of this service has been pre-
sented by the Western Newspaper
Union, the source of supply from
which we purchase the service, and
we have come to believe that they
are right. The Western Newspaper
Union with offices in almost every
city of prominence in the United
States, and making a speciality of
furnishing readyprints to thousands
of newspapers throughout the land,
have a greater opportunity Of gath
ering together such readable matter
as will please the people, than has
the country editor WHO through lack
of business in smaller towns, is COM
PEELED to curtail expenses, doing his
own janitor work and from that on
up to the editorial stunt, thereby
neglecting the greatest patronage
winning feature of the business.

our issue of November 30,h, we will
present to the thous md readers of
the Optimist, on the four inside pa

events that will please all readers.
