The price of The Georgian is $5.20 per year on and after April Ist when delivered by carrier. This is 10 cents per week whether paid in advance or by the week. Be sure that you understand this proposition. You secure 25 new subscriptions to The Daily Georgian, to be delivered by carrier in the city of Atlanta and suburbs, for one year each, and as evidence of good faith on the part of the subscribers that they will take The Georgian for the full time they are required to pay for three months in advance, or $1.30, and after the three months has expired they are to pay the carrier at the rate of 10 cents per week for the other nine months.
