Jasper County Democrat, Volume 6, Number 42, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 23 January 1904 — Page 1 Advertisements Column 5 [ADVERTISEMENT]
NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS. The Democrat has frequently notified its subscribers through these columns of the necessity of giving the old address as well as the new address in writing to have the address of their paper changed. When John Smith simply writes: “Please change my Democrat to Wheatfield,” we are at a loss to know which particular John Smith of the dozen or more on our list is meant. In writing to have your postoffice address changed please use the following form, and thereby save us and yourself unnecessary trouble and vexation: “Mr.. Editor: —Please change the address of my Democrat from Remington, Ind., to Wheatfield, Ind., and oblige. John Smith.” This is in very few words, yet it contains all that is necessary for us to know, In changing to a rural ronte always give the particular number of the route you are located on. you choose you can notify the postmaster where you have been getting your mail, that you will move to some other point, and request him to have your Democrat changed to the new address. It is then hit duty to notify us of the change without cost to you, and the government supplies him with blank cards especially for this purpose. It is also the postmaster’s duty to notify publishers of the change in address of a subscriber, if he knows the new address, without being told to do so, or if the paper is not taken from the office and he does not know the address of the subscriber. Everything just as advertised at Rowles & Pabkeb's.
