WATCHING THE ADJ
VERTISING COLUMNS

Getting all the news of all the
county all the time for only $3.50 a
year in these days of high prices is
the cheapest thing we know Of on
the market. Every other household
necessity has increased from 800 to
500 per cent. But by maintaining
large circulation the Enterprise is
able to give its readers standard
newspaper at just slight increase
in price Of subscription. Even the
large city dailies have increased their
rate and reduced the size of their
papers.
Advertising in the Enterprise
means countrywide publicity. And
in these days of close competition
and close merchandising, county
wide publicity pays bigger divi-
dend than ever before. The man
with money to spend will hop into
his automobile, skip across the coun-
try 20 miles over the good roads and
do his shopping and get back home
in time for dinner. This man is
watching the advertising columns of
the Enterprise. The good advertis-
er is watching the rapid growth of
the enterprise subscription list, for
publicity is what he wants. He can
no longer afford to give out adver-
Using just simply because pub
Usher is a good fellow. He does not
extend his charity to the editor. He
spends his money for advertising for
the good it will do his business
and he naturally looks to the Enter
prise when he wants to get some
thing before the public.
Following is the list of new and
renewal subscribers up to last Satur-
dav niuht.

 PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 2.-The Pennsylvania Railway company to- day announced the cancellation of one hundred and four trains of all classes over It's lines.
