Weekly Newspapers Must Reduce
Circulation IS Per Cent September IS

Washington, Aug. H. The
order reducing the amount of
print paper that may be used by
weekly newspapers by Is per
cent has been prepared by the
pulp and paper section of the
war industries board. and will be
effective September Is,
The regulations providing for
a reduction of Is per cent for
daily papers became effective on
August II, and those providing
of 20 per cent on the part Of the
Sunday papers will become
effective on September l.
Publishers of weekly news
papers must arrange for re-
duction of Is per. cent in their
circulation beginning with Sept
ember Is, in order to meet the
requirements of the war indust-
ry board.
1t is suggested that the follow
ing methods be used:
An increase in the subscription
price of the paper, especially
where the price is less than two
dollars a year.
The discontinuance of all SUBJ
scriptions that are not renewed
and paid in advance when SUBJ
scriptions expire.
The elimination of all free
copies.
I'he elimination of all exohang-
es except where the papers rece-
ived in exchange are absolutely
essential to the conduct of the
paper.
Publishers of weekly neWspa-
pers will be supplied by the war
industries board with blaalbs for
the purpose of reporting the
amount of paper used by them
each month from September 1,
1917, to September l, 1918. The
statements made by the publish
ers will be in the form Of sworn
affidavits and each month for
the next IL they will be required
to make sworn statement show
ing the amount of paper consul
med during that month, and it
is expected that this amount
will be Is per cent less than
that used during the same month

Publishers who have stock Oh
hand will not be allowed to use
in larger ratio than those who
must buy from month to month
Failure to make accurate repor.
or failnre to make reductions,
will result in either mills or job
bers being required to shut off
the supply of paper to the off
ding publisher.
1t is not expected at this time
that any further reductions in
the use of print paper will be
made but the war industries
board has made, it clear that
should the fuel problem become
worse further reductions may be
found necessary and if so they
will be made.
The saving should be made by
cutting off the deadheads, the
people who do not pay in advance
and set the regular subscription
price at point where, even
with a less number of subscrib-
ers, there will be a greater rev.
enue.
Every weekly newspaper pub
Usher must be prepared toswear
to the amount of paper he used
during the past II months, by
months, and then he must figure
a monthly reduction from these
figures of Is per cent.
Because of the absolute neces
sity of .curtaiiing the use of

of the war industries board has
ruled that during the war nc

CHEERFUL TOUCHES

The short and often sunless days Of
winter accent more than ever the
cherries atmosphere. and light OF
those rooms in our houses too scan
tily supplied with windows, and too
much darkened by heavy furniture,
dark paper and curtains.
Now Is the time for the clever
houswife to spend few hours and a
little money cheering up the winter
house. Most of our time Is spent in
.oors, and we need all the color and
ght We can devise to keep our sptr-
at normal levels.
II the purse win allow paper and
int are the cheer-upS par excellence
or the dismal room. In rooms hay-
ing only one window .Hght-colored
ra per should always be chosen with
yellow for first choice and pink as
next, OF white with pink, blue or yell
low designs. In such rooms also the
woodwork should be painted cream
color, white or light yellow. Floor
coverings too, whether painted doors,
carpet or mating is used, should be
light colored with rugs In yellow or
ght brown tones.
Avoid heavy, dark-co1ored curtains.
te window shades should be yellow
or tan and thin, straight curtains OF
cream net of scrfm are best Ferns
or flowers In bright colored pots OF
i,owls always add light and cheer. A
ass or cooper bowl or brilliant piece
OF pottery Is a good cheer-spot.
Hang a few bright colored pictures
on the walls, preferably framed IN
