TO TELEGRAM SUBSCRIBERS
WHO PAY WEEKLY.

The best way to avoid misunder-
standings concerning your subscrip-
ton account to the Telegram is to
PAY EVERY WEEK. This method
insures better satisfaction all the
way around, and eliminates disputes
that sometimes arise from subscrip-
lions that run for a long time. OF
course, there are those that can only
Fay once a month, and we keep this
in mind when checking up our books.
Our carrier boys are all capable Of
handling the collections, but are en-
tirely unfamiliar with your account,
save as it is marked in the collection
book. We have instructed them that
if subscriber differs with them In
regard to their subscription, they are
to request the subscriber to call at
the office and adjust things.
If every subscriber would pay their
dime EVERY week, excepting, OF
course, those who have made ar
rangements as to when they will pay
their weekly accounts, uncertainties
erd MISUNDERSTANDING would be a
rare occurrence.

be delivered by Rev. Richard Watson
Cooper, d. d., president of the Upper
Iowa University at Fayette, Ia, and
the benediction will be pronounced
by Rev. A. nj. Billingsley. The church
as it stands today is a credit to the

Minor Lemen, who, during the few
months of his pastorate, has mani
tested his untiring zeal for the well
fare or the parish The edifice is one
of the most modern in the city, and
