Soldiers Have Club Room.

The members of Bryc Post. Am
erican Legion, (and, by the way,
the name Of this Nezperce Post is
made by using the first letter in
the name of each of the four Nez-
perce boys who were killed in ac-
ton on the "west front Booth,
Rowe, Yates, Cox) are making ar
rangements to buy or build them
selves q home-quarters which
they plan to have conducted in the
nature of club.
The committee having the mat
ter in charge has investigated sew
eral available buildings and sites
about town, and the construction
of brick building on Main street
for their purpose is also under
consideration. A report on the
findings of this committee will
probably be made at a general
meeting after the Legion ball to-
night.
There are about so ex-service
men in this community and it is
naturally their wont to be togeth-
er as much as possible and the log
ical means to this end seems to be
club room, where any member
might feel at home at all times
and where he might expect to
find congenial company when he
has an hour or more off from bis
daily work. So popular is the
idea with the men that number
who have been approached in re-
gard to financing the movement,
have readily agreed to supply
their pro rata of funds; and the
permanent brick building, which
would also stand as a memorial to
this group Of soldiers Of the Great
War, seems to be in greatest fav-
or.

The Herald, 81 Per Year.

It is the policy of this paper ant
its printing establishment to hole
the price of its product down t.
| the lowest figure possible and ye
secure the necessary profit L
guarantee service expected ano
demanded Of it. We have, there
fore, been very slow to advance
prices either on subscription, ad,
vertisiug or job work holding
back until many familiar with
printing cost conditions have ex.
pressed their wonderment at how
we managed it.
The advancing cost of labor,
paper and all things that enter
into the printing product have
compelled many country weekly
papers, even in the Central West,
where production is much cheap
er than here, to 60 into the AZ list
many months since.
The Herald now finds that it
must also advance it's subscripti III
price to this figure. So, on and
after January l, 1920, the annual
subscription rate of this paper
will be 50. Until that date, how
ever, the rate of $3.50 per year
will hold good, and old or new
subscribers will be given the priv
ilege Of advancing their subscrip-
tions as many years as they like
at this price. We think this is fair
to all concerned.
This paper has one Of the larg-
est and best subscription lists in
North Idaho. There is no better
advertising medium in the coun-
try newspaper list. In spite Of
this fact our advertising rates
have been held down to about the
same figure as those of papers
with half the circulation. The
time has come when we must
charge more for space, and on
and after January /, 1920, our
basic rate for display space will
be 20 cents per column-inch per
issue. Local readers will be 10
cents per line, of about six words,
for the first insertion and five
cents per line for each succeed
ing insertion.
And on and after the above date
the paper will be discontinued to
outside of Lewis and
it's immediate neighbor counties ut
the expiration of the time such
subscription is paid for. In other.
words, distant subscriptions (gen-
orally known as the "single- wrap
per list") must be paid in ad-,
y
