Our Periodicals on a Cash Basis.

By the nature of things, poriodical business should never
be on other than a cash basis. Under present-day conditions,
however, it becomes peremptory to take immediate steps to put
the periodical business of Concordia Publishing House on a
cash basis, and we are now really fulfilling a patriotie duty
and obéying governmental orders when we conserve man-power
by eliminating the wasteful work of periodical accounting, such
as becomes necessary when the péeriodical business is conducted
on a credit basis. In addition, it must be remembered that as
long as our nation is at war, it is becoming inereasingly difficult.
well-nigh impossible, to secure help.

Beginning on October 1, 1918, we are therefore putting our
entire periodical business on a strictly cash basis, which means
that no subscriptions, neither from individuals nor from agents,
will be accepted except on payment of the subscription price in
advance, and all subscriptions will automatically be eanceled on
that date unless paid for.

We erealize that this move will be unpopular. But we sin-
cerely believe that most of our subscribers, upon mature reflec-
tion, will be readily convinced that the step is necessary, not
only because the authorities ask it, but also because by far the
majority of our subscribers are members of the church-body that
owns our institution, and therefore indireetly stockholders in
the enterprise, sharing in the dividends we annually pay into the
treasury of our Synod.

We rather expeet to lose aà few subscribéers on account of
this move, but we confidently expect that those of our subseribers

who do not realize the justice of our new cash-strictly-in-advance
policy will realize the patriotie duty and civie necessity of insti-
tuting this policy, and we are confident that the loyalty and
patriotism which characterizes our patronage will prompt them
to help us makeé the transition to the new policy with the least
possible discomfort to all concerned. Those subscribing through
agents, for instance, will save themselves and their agent an-
noyance by paying him in ample time to enable his remittance
to reach us before October 1, 1918.

At the same time we beg to announce a change in our ad-
dressing system, which we hopé to complete by J anuary 1, 1919,
if we can get the newa equipment by that time. From now till
then we shall not change the date of expiration on the present
address labels, and subscribers are cordially asked to be patient
with us during this period. To change the entire system of
machine-addressing, covering several hundred thousand ad-
dresses, is a tremendous task even for a largeé concern. We are
maturing our plans with a care for every contingency we can
think of, but our fondést hopes and our most earnest endeavors
will probably not safeguard against a few cerrors.

Theé expensive and really unnecessary individual wrapping
of most papers will be discontinued, — another item of economy
we must introduce if we wish to mateérialize our determination
to delay the inerease of our subscription rates to the very last,
forever if we can.

If your subscriptions to any of our periodicals are not
vet paid, do not wait for statement, but please pay at once.
Vou will be serving yourself, your Government, and your pub-
lishers.
