NUMBERS of our contemporaries keep
'on talking about adopting "cash-in-a ad-
vance," but very few really practice it.
The Observer is probably the only news
paper in South Carolina that hasn q
single dollar owing to it for suoscr'p-
tions. The only way to do thlng IS 70
do it. -Newberry Observer brother
Wallace lis almost always correct and
this time is very nearly so. The Senti-
mel hasn't n dollar owing to it on sub
scr;ntion so far as we know, and we
are glad to be in this same class with
the Observer. We find the cash-in-ad-
vance system not only better for the
paper. but after the subscribers become
accustomed to it they like it better, too.
If the subscribers of all papers only
knew what a great difference it made
in the paper they would all insist upon
paying in advance.
