GOOD NEWS
FOR OUR READERS AND ADVERTISER!

During the war we were compelled to reduce the number of our motor carriers to two with the result that many readers of The Daily ner and The Indianapolis News outside of the towns and villages in county were forced to subscribe by mail. This meant that The Pifl Banner wasn t received by them until the day following publication. I Daily Banner regretted this inconvenience to these readers and we them our assurance that as soon as conditions permitted the delivery oifl
Daily Banner and The Indianapolis News would be returned to delivery®
vice on the day of publication.
We are now happy to announce that our motor carriers have been 1 creased from two carriers to five carriers and these will be increasd! time to serve as many readers of The Daily Banner and The Indiana]
News as is possible.
