THE STAR FAMILY.

Since announcement was made
a few weeks ago of the new Daily
Democrat, a number of our good
friends and supporters have come
into the office and not only sub
Scribed for the paper for them
selves but also for relatives and
friends in order that the project
should be boosted along and the
paper have good big SubScrip-
tiOn list right from the start, but
il remains, so far, for the J. Nj.
Brining family TO be the real star
members of The Democrat family

Ocrat will go into five homes of
members Of the Brining family.
MIR. and Mrs. Brining of this city,
will read the paper for the next
year as will also their son, Ray,
who lives on The farm west of
town. and in addition another son,
Wesley, who was attending COL
lese in Quincy Ills., but who left
that city a few days ago to accept
a position in Michigan. will keep
posted on the home news, also
their daughter, Mrs. J. NJ. Mitchell

The Daily Democrat, and in
addition Mrs. Brining has or
dered the paper sent TO a sister,
Mrs. Briggs, who lives in Califor-

few thousand more families as
loyal supporters as the Brining
family, we would soon have a sub
Scription list that would put tIfe
Kansas City Star TO shame.

way, Tor he reports that the horse

horse means a loss which amounts
to something.
