The Record received an invoice one
day this week for ton of newsprint
paper at thirteen cents the paund f. o.
b. shipping point. The freight and
drayage charges on this shipment will
amount to about $1,000, making the
total cost of the ton s272.O0. When
we came to The Record in 1911 the
same paper, quantity and all, was
costing the proprietor about $500.
Since 1914, the price has gradually
increased until today, when it has
reached the highest price in the~his-
tory of the newsprint industry. Even
at this enormous figure, paper is scarce
and hard to get, and the outlook at
present indicates a still higher price.
These facts make it necessary for the
management Of The Record to practice
rigid economy, and in order to do this
the adaptation of the cash in advance
subscription plan must be adhered to.
If any subscriber desires his paper
to continue coming to him, and with
out missing an issue or two, it will be
well to watch the date on the address
label and send in your order and re-
mittance for renewal in time. We
positively must adhere to the cash IN
advance rule.

Associated Press dispatches sent
out Monday announce that President
Wilson will not establish the summer
White House at Woods Hole, Mass,
as has been expected, but probably
will select some other place where
more accommodations are available
for the large staff of secretaries and
attaches. The reason for not accept
ing the Woods Hole estate is that it
is not large enough to accommodate
the force attached to the presidents
staff.

BABE RUTH DEAL
PROVES GOLD MINE
Home Run Hitter Has Already
Paid for Himself Several
Times Over.

When Jacob Rupert and Til Huston
last winter paid $4,000 in real, cold
cash for the services Of Babe Ruth
opinion was divided as to the wisdom
of the investment, says Daniels in the
New York Sun and Herald.
, A good many baseball men who were
regarded as shrewd followers of the
game, with an uncommon supply of
business aoumen, said that the sum
named was out of kiiter with the value
Of the player to the New York club,
both in the field and as box office
attraction.
They placed emphasis on the fact
that an injury might put the home run
king out OF the game for the entire
season. Ask Rupert and Huston now
regarding the business side OF their in
vestment and they will chuckle and
break into a broad smile. They risked
and already they have won, for Ruth
has proved a magnet stronger than Ty-
rus Cobb at the height Of his popularity.
For the first time In the history of
the New York American league club
fans are being turned away not only
at the Polo grounds but on the road
On their recent tour in the west the
Yankees played to 100000 persons, and
Huston figures that before the season
is over the club will have played to a
paid attendance of a million AID half.
II this dope proves correct--and there
Is every reason to believe that 1t will
the Yankees will set a new major
