The Record is a strong “bidder”
for advertising patronage—that is
we bid to give the advertiser good
service and guarantee legitimate
business. While we are not offer-
ing to sacrifice our front page at
less than 5c per inch each insertion
for small space and then harp
about “other advertising not being
worth the money at a lower rate,"
still we believe that we have a
good county advertising medium,
and will appreciate the continued
liberal patronage of our advertisers
to whom we owe a debt of grati-
tude for confidence and loyalty.
