Paper Famine and Prices

Manufacturers RecOrd)
The price of paper which has
advanced from 100 to 200 per
cent or more, over prices pre-
vailing year ago, seriously
threatens the life of a large
number of publications and also
greatly lessons the profits of
others.
1t is doubtful if any other
large industry in the United
States has had to face so seri-
GUS a situation. because when
the prices of raw materials
have advanced the manufac-
turers of the finished product
have advanced their prices and
thus thrown the burden on the
ultimate consumer. In the
newspaper business. this has
not yet been done. The news
papers from the largest dailies
to the smallest weeklies. have
been bearing the burden which
to many publications will mean
complete destruction and to
many others the wiping out of
all profit.
Had the newspapers Of the
country been as prompt to de-
fend their own interests as they
have the interests of others,
they, too, would before this
have undertaken to save them
selves by advance in subscrip-
ton price and advertising rates.
Under existing conditions they
will be forced to do this sooner
or later. and they cannot post
pone it much longer without Sc
rious financial embarrassment
to many of them. Hundreds of
the smaller weeklies, including
the religious papers, which have
had but a narrow margin be-
tween profit and loss, will. we
fear. suffer most seriously, and
many of them disastrously, un-
less the public recognizes the
situation and accepts an adj
vance in subscription and in ad-
vertising rates and thus save
the situation.
The day laborer, the mechan-
ic, the farmer and nearly all
business interests, manufacture
ing and mercantile, under the
activity of the times are show
ing larger earnings than for
years. But the newspapers as a
whole, are meeting more per-
picking problem in the doubling
and sometimes trebling, of the
the price Of paper, and in the
absolute inability to contract in
advance for supplies, than they
have ever had to face before.
The statements which have re-
Gently appeared in the daily pa
pers on the subject do not at all
exaggerate the seriousness of the
problem.

The United States Navy.
The life of a sailor-and par
ticularly the life of a man-of-
war's-man-with it's adventures
and ever changing scenes, new
countries, new people; following
the sea from one part to ano-
ther,-has always appealed
strongly to the imagination Of
the mems spirit. In the record of
the deeds of the men of the
United States Navy. from John
Paul Jones to Admiral Dewey,
the young American can find
the highest inspiration; for our
Navy, both in time of war and
in peace has played an import
ant part in the history of our
country. The Navy has been,
throughout it's entire existence,
a service of high ideals; and it's
unbroken record of great and
worthy achievement of duty
well-done has been due to the
high standard set for officers
and men in the beginning and
maintained ever since. This
standard was never higher than
it is today; and any young
American who thinks of going
into the Navy may feel sure
that on enlisting, he will enter
a service in which he may, and
should, always feel a justifiable
pride and Of which the uniform
is a badge of honor.
But, in addition to the chance
of serving the country in an
honorable position, a place in
the Navy ocers, as a livelihood.
many advantages such as a
steady employment; good prac-
teal training; gradual promo
ton; provision for old age; a,
healthful life; an opportunity
for travel and education. The
pay is graded according to
mans skill and length of SER
vice and compares favorably
with that Of highly paid labor in
civil life. Indeed when it is re-
membered that a blue-jacket's |
pay is nearly CLEAR of all liv-
ing expenses, it is doubtful that
in ordinary times, there is any

A Gard to Owners :
of Rural Telephone Lines

We are anxious to see that all lines owned h.
other parties and connected with us are kept in .ch
condition to furnish efficient service Where n.
of rural lines responsible for their uok..c
we want to cooperate with them.
All lines require thorough overeauinc occ..
sionally if the best service is to be obtained w.
recommend that every line connected with 10 h.
overhauled at least year. and that At least one
experienced telephone man assist in this work, tn.
cost of this work when divided among all the parona
of the line, makes the amount paid by each man
small, and this will be more than offset BY the
improved service.
If the owners of rural telephone lines in this sec.
ton experiencing trouble with their service, we
will appreciate their talking the matter over with our
Manager or writing us fully. We will gladly do
what can toward helping you improve the con-
dition of your line.
