THE JACKSON PROGRESS-ARGUS, JACKSON, GEORGIA
PROGRESS-ARGUS IS GRATEFUL
Many are probably wondering the
whys and wherefores of The Progress-
Argus Subscription Campaign, which
has been managed by Mrs. Myrtle
Atkinson, who has a long and success
ful experience in that capacity and
was selected for that particular work
because of hdr reputation for fair
ness and ability. The Progress-
Argus did not enter upon the cam
paign with the idea of making money
or raising quick cash. The paper
owes no bills that it cannot pay. The
whole object behind the campaign
was to advertise first the paper itself
and increase its circulation and be in
position to better serve its advertis
ers and readers. Believing that
Butts county and this entire section
is destined to witness substantial
growth and development in the im
mediate future, The Progress-Argus
wants to be in position to play its
part as a medium of information and
to be in the forefront of every pro
gressive movement for Butts county
and this section. Rather conserva
tive, perhaps, The Progress-Argus
has been widely publicized as a result
of the Campaign, now drawing to a
close. Still another object of the
campaign was to collect unpaid sub
scriptions and place its list on an ab
solutely cash-in-advance basis. This
policy will be adhered to in the fu
ture and if any readers who are in
arrears have failed to renew during
the campaign they will be dropped
without further notice. In this con
nection The Progress-Argus wishes
to inform all subscribers, new and
old, that the paper will be sent for
time paid for and that all contracts
will be carried out, according to the
records in our office. Of course it
will take time to adjust minor differ
ences, but the mailing list will be
corrected as speedily as possible after
the close of the contest. The paper
wishes to thank all who have had a
part in the ctmpaign, Mrs. Atkinson,
the manager, and the contestants,
wno have worked haro and faithfully,
and for the reading public of this
section for the cordial reception ac
corded the contestants. It is a priv
ilege to serve such a constituency.
The Progress-Argus is now going in
to the homes of more readers than
any newspaper ever published in
Butts county. Its wide circulation
affords merchants and business men.
a wonderful opportunity to aggress
ively press their claims for a share
of the patronage that awaits hustlers.
To all who have helped make the
campaign a wonderful success, The
Frogress-Argus is grateful and pled
ges faithful and conscientious effort
to perform every duty required of it.
