The editor of The Centre Reporter feels grateful to its
many supporters—its subscribers, its advertisers, and its pe
the commercial printing departmen The best proof that
dealings have been mutually profitable is the fact that each di
of business has been steadily growing.

The subseription price of this journal has again been
made £1.50 per year, the price that was paid in 1868 for a paper a
fraction over one fourth its present size. This rise in price became
imperative, so that each department might bring to the manage-
ment a slight profit. Until February 1st, next, the one dollar sub-
scription rate will prevail, but no longer.
The Centre Reporter extends to its readers its best wish-
es for 1914, and hopes that each one will share in the general pros-
perity of the country that is certain to prevail throughout
the year.
