A LETTER TO PA.

The Herald mailing list has been
brought to date and last week the Of
flee clerical force completed mailing
statements to all delinquent accounts.
Mistakes are liable to happen and
should a bill have been mailed where
the subscriber is paid ahead kindly
notify us in the return envelope and
we will take immediate steps to cor
rect same. On the other hand the
errors are trifling and the great bulk
Of the statements are exactly correct.
The usual conversation when a news
paper statement comes is something
like this:
Ma-"Pa, here's a statement from
the Herald. | thought you attended
to that long ago?"
Pa-"Yes, Ma, l intended to but the
matter slipped my mind again"
Ma-Now, Pa, you know we can't
get along without the Herald so
please see that the paper man gets
his money"
Pal will, Ma, l Will" But Pa
has a lot on his mind and he puts the
bill in his old coat not to see it again
for maybe six months.
Now, Pa. we are working for you and
your family 10 give you as muCn
county news as we can scrape togeth-
er every week. Paper is listed now
at $3.50 ton where five years ago it
was $50 ton. We use a ton every
eight weeks and sometimes more.
Labor and other expenses are double
or more than what they used to be.
We could cut the quality of the
paper in every way, cheaper it, and
save a good deal Of money. But we
won't do this and you don't want us
to do this. You want the paper to
get betterand better just as we do.
So sit right down (if you can't come
i'm and make out a check for the
amount noted on the bill or as far
ahead as you want to pay at 50 a year
if you live in the county and $3.50 a
year if you live outside the county.
Put the check in the addressed en-
velope and mail it to us. We will re-
ceipt to you at once.
Very truly yours,

MAKES SPLENDID FIND
ON HIS OWN FARM.

Galena, Ill-James E. Furlong
while spending Sunday at his country
home in Vinegar Hill township, made
a valuable discovery on the grounds
near his home. He has had a good
idea that the land was rich in lead
and zinc ore and on Sunday afternoon
accidentally made a discovery that
will no doubt prove big paying mine
in the near future. He found some
surface lead located in an old creek
bed and then procured pick and dug
a few feet when he discovered a crew
ice that promises big results. In a
few minutes Mr. Furlong dug out some
eighty pounds of almost solid ore and
there was a large amount still in
sight Where the crevice was dis
covered is only short distance north
of the well known Vinegar Hill Zinc
Co.'s properties.

THEO. CALVIN WRITES
OF CALIFORNIA LIFE.

Mr. and Mrs. JOS Hurlburt of this
city recently received an interesting
letter from TheO. Calvin, an old Lam
caster resident who with his wife and
daughter and son-in-law now reside
in California Mr.. Calvin extends a
hearty invitation to his old friends to
come to California where the breezes
blow and the sun shines most of the
time the only difficulty about the
weather being the necessity of con-
sulting the almanac to see if spring
has come. On Decoration Day the
Calvins attended services ct Sawtelle,
the Soldiers Home, where thousands
of veterans are buried. Each grave
was handsomely covered with fine
flowers, with a flag at every grave.
Airplanes scattered tons of flowers
over the cemetery. From Sawtelle
they went to Santa Monica where
they saw a huge war vessel 900 feet
long fire salute of Il guns in honor
of the soldier dead. The aviation
school is nearby and the flying planes
are so common that they nave ceased
being an attraction. There are 40
studios near l.. A., Mr.. Calvin says,
and movies are being made all the
time. Recently one company was en-
gagged in making pictures at night US
ing powerful searchlights that lighted
the heavens for miles. The scene to
be photographed was an airplane fly
ing at night Mr. Calvin extends
kindest regards to his old soldier
friends of the 47th and feels sure that
they will always celebrate Decora-
ton Day He denies that sugar is Is
cents pound in California but says
is one is good looking one might get
five pounds at 80 cents a pound.

Washington - The population of

statistician of the census bureau. His
calculation is based on the combined

The increase over 1910 is placed at

the decline in growth

Where no farewell thears are shed.
