This is as important to us as finsn-
cial support. And please remember,
friends, that it is not quite as good
news when it has been published in an
other paper. In that event it has some
thing of the flavor of sucked orange.
The Messenger is a Clio institution,
stands for Clio all the time, helps to
pay its taxes, spends its money here,
provides employment for labor, and en-
deavors generally to be deserving. If
you believe this, we ask your whole
hearted. earnest loyalty. In case you
are owing us on subscription account
we ask you to settle the same as
promptly as you possibly can, bearing
in mind that the recent fire has caused
and must for some time continue to
cause us much additional expense and
that the price of print paper has nearly
doubled, in the face of all of which we
are endeavoring to supply the paper to
you at the same price as of old.
