1t is an incontrovertable fact that
no business enterprise can be run sue

true of the newspaper business as
of other lines, and from this view
point we earnestly urge all who know
themselves to be in arrears in their
subscriptions to The Observer and
who can possibly do so, to pay up at
once.
Since the present owner assumed

dated their subscription Indebtedness,
but there are others, and a consider
able number of them, who have not

if every subscriber paid up promptly.
the money received from this source
would be inadequate to meet the ex-
penses of its publication. Therefore
every dollar in arrears in this depart
ment means that a dollar must be
taken from some other place to make
up the deficit. If you appreciate our
efforts at newspaper making, please
let us have a substantial expression
of that appreciation.
