Is your time so engaged you cannot form a club
A reader urges those pressed for time to ask neighbors for five subscribers to secure a newspaper for a year for the family. The note implies a simple home approach to support a paper despite busy schedules.
Canvass for Extra Globe Subscriptions
A club may include old or new subscribers from the same town or different sections. Each name counted brings the total toward five needed for an extra copy. Subscribers or readers are urged to canvass for the WEEKLY GLOBE and encourage a friend to join so they may receive the WEEKLY GLOBE for one year.
