Owing to the continued sharp
advances in the price of paper
and other raw material the pub
fishers find it absolutely neces-
sary to increase the price of the
CuOlook from $l.50 to $500 per
year. The extreme scarcity Of
paper now forces us TO pay for
the raw material practically
three times the price paid a year
ago, so while a small profit was
formerly made at the price of
$3.50 per year, the same price
now causes us to lose money.
The advance to $500 per year
becomes effective January /, 1917
subscriptions received prior to
this date will be accepted at $l.50
and any subscription may be paid
rs far in advance as desired at
,he old rare, provided payment is
received on or before January l..
After that date subscriptions will
be strictly cash in advance.
