Jasper County Democrat, Volume 21, Number 60, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 26 October 1918 — Page 1 Advertisements Column 2 [ADVERTISEMENT]

NOTICE TO DEMOCRAT SUBSCRIBERS. We have tried to make it plain that under the late order of the pulp and paper section of the war industries board publishers are not permitted to send copies of their paper to subscribers unless payment is made in advance, yet a few subscribers who -S’ere in arrears October 1 and therefore had to discontinue Ending the paper to them, wonder why it was stopped! It is not a question of their ability to pay or that we had any fears they would not pay; it was simply that we were compelled to stop sending the paper to them under order from' the war industries board. This same also compels us to discontinue sending papers in the future to subscribers unless payment is made in advance. Please bear this in mind end watch the label on your paper, which gives the date to which your subscription is paid, and see to it that it is kept paid in advance. The Democrat has no desire to force the paper onto anyone that does not want it, but those who were in arrears on October 1 and therefore dropped from the list will be expected to pay such arrearages. Statements have been or will be mailed to/ them, and if no response is made the accounts will be placed in hands for collection.
