JENNER^S PARK OPENING DAY, THURSDAY, JUNE ) t v A LIVE NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN A LIVE TOWN VOLUME XXXIV .LOUP CITY. NEBRASKA, THURSDAY, JUNE IS. I'M.', NUMBER 24 LONG TIME SUBSCRIBER. Northwestern Claims to Have The Record. The Northwestern force has been busy for the past two weeks cheeking over the subscription books and getting the subscrip tion list rearranged and placed in a card index system. ()ne sub scriber we.found to Ik* credited in advance for the nexr ninety years At first it was thought that this • was a mistake, hut after an ex haustive investigation we found tint tins ere lit is perfectly pro|ter an 1 that the subscriber is entitled t" r * *eive the Lotip JL-ity N’orth " stern for ninety years to come. We wish that many more sub vribers would copy after this long time one, but of coins* we don't expect many to pay up for as long a time as the one. referred to above. It is a good plan, pay up your subscription for ten or fifteen .vears and then you will have it off your mind for some time to c > ne. As a 'peojul inducement t i all ninety year subscribers we will mike this extra offer of a free subscription for life after the ninety years are past. But laying all i ikes aside. The N *rthwestern claims the distinc tion of having the longest paid in advance subscriber of any news paper in the •'tate of Nebraska. The \o>thwestern has a largesub scrip ion list of good paving •• tb s--ib>rs. The subscrip ion list is | growing right along and inereas-j i’ig nicelv. But we will always) h ive this one subscriber anyway. N i manor what we say or what we do. or -a.ether he likes the paper m I its policy or not, we will have liitij with us always, for h has pai i ^iis money and it will be our special aim to please him and till ot lifer subscribers. -1 ] ATTEND THE PARK OPENING Opening day at .Tenner Park on Thursday, dune 10, promises to be a record breaker.
