PAY UP PLEASE

The rule of The Times IN accepting
political announcements is cash in ad-
vance; but courtesy has been extended
some in accepting announcements
some who were at an inconvenience to
come to the office. Our books show
that some of these accounts are un-
paid to date. This cannot exist very
long. 1t takes money, and lots Of it,
to get out such paper as The Times
is, and to meet the obligations incl
dent to the running of the Office No
thing but the "coin of the realm" sat
isles those to whom we are indebted.
Hence, we are put to the necessity
of asking the delinquent ones to pay
up. If this is not done, it will be
necessary to drop the announcement
from the columns Of The Times, and
this will be done at very early date
unless this matter is taken care Of
Better attend to this matter if you are
in arrears on this account.

High school, 9G.4; seventh grade, 95.4;
Room A North Ward, 96.2; Room 2
North Ward, 9697. There are more
pupils enrolled for the eighth month
of school this year than any other
eighth month during the last seven
years, with the exception Of the year
191i-12. The enumeration for that
year was fifty-two more than for the
present year and the enrolment was
only thirty-two more than the present
enrolment for the eighth month.
The high school contest to select
representatives to the county contest
was held the auditorium Friday
evening of last week. There were six
contestants and all of them did re-
markably well, considering the fact
that all were either sophomores or
freshmen. Myrtle Nations won the
girls contest and William Huff the
boys. These two will represent us
in the contest at Desloge Saturday
evening of this week. The contest
was judged by President Z. NJ. Smith
Mrs. Zenas Spicer and Mr.. c. 0. Mel
son. Only very small audience wa'
present and the proceeds will barely
pay the local expenses of the contes
and the expenses of the contestants t.
Desloge. We have heretofore had suf
fcient to defray at least the railroad
fare of the contestants to Cape Girar
deau above other expenses.
