tramps ; but as yet they have no re

tinction because of race, color, or

It is not pleasant to print dunning
notices in the paper, and we avoid it
as much as possible, but when an ex
amination of our books shows that
that there is a large amount outstand
ing that is needed in our business,
the necessity of calling attention to it
is forced upon us. The times are hard.
and for that reason we have been just
as lenient as possible, but expenses
are heavy, and when money does not
come in fast enough to pay them, we
must ask for what is due. All sub
