Notice To Subscribers. It seems hard to convince some subscribers that the old plan of Sending country papers along for several years and letting the subscriber pay whenever he chose to do so cannot be followed any more because of new postal regulations. Now a reasonable time is given to secure a renewal, and when that time has expired the publisher must

cease sending the paper regardless of how “good” the subscriber may be financially. Some subscribers seem to think that the publisher is at fault for stopping their paper at the expiration of the limit given to renew, and become incensed for having any doubt about their intention to pay. They do not, or will not, understand that the publisher has no option in the matter under the present postal regulations, but must discontinue sending them the paper unless a renewal is had within the prescribed limit. Watch the date on the label of your paper and make it a point to renew at or soon after the time that your subscription expires. The publisher does not make the postal rules, but he has to obey them, remember.
