INTERESTED IN DEVELOPMENTS
p^nclosing a dollar to the News
for subscription, R. D. McKinna
of Pickens becomes a now reader
and Kives his reason** as follows :
“I am a Transylvanian and am
doi^ply interested in the develop
ments of Transylvania county.”
The News has readers in twenty-
tive states of the Union and if resi
dents of this county would furnish
us with names of forim.‘r residents
w’e would be glad to send those not
receiving the paper .sample copies
without cost that they might learn
more of our local developments
Let the news have the nam(^s of
former residents in whom you are
interested.
New or renewal subscriptions
(beginning January 1) will cost
$1.00 for one year, 60 cents 6
months, 35 cents 3 months, 25
cents for 2 months.
i CAUTIONI
^ The ne/-day advances that come
alone on this machine are all con
trolled by Oliver. Even our own
previous models—famous in their
day—never had.the Optional Duplex
Shift.
It puts the whole control ot 84
letters and oharacters in the little
fingers of the right and left hands.
And it lets you write them all with
only 28 keys, the least to operate
of any standard typewriter made.
Thus writers of all other machines
can immediately run the Oiiver
Number “9” with more speed and
greater ease.
WARNING!
This brilliant new Oliver eomes
at the oid-time price. It costs no
more than lesser makes—now out-of-
date when compared with this dis
covery.
For while'the Oliver's splendid
new features are costly—we have
equalized the added expense to us
by simplifying construction.
Resolve right now to see this
great achievement before you spend
a dollar for any typewriter. If you
are using some other make you will
v.-ant to see how much more this
one does.
If you are using an Oliver, it
naturally follows that you want the
finest model.
17 CENTS A DAY^ Remember this brand-new Oliver “9” is the
1. • greatest value ever given in a typewriter. It
has all our previous special inventions—visible writing, automatic spacer, 6,‘2-ounce
touch—plus the Optional Duplex Shift, Selective Color Attachment and all these
other new-day features. 1 ~~1
Yet we have decided to sell it to everyone everywhere on our famous payment
plan—17 cents a day! Now every user can easily afford to have the world’s crack
visible writer, with the famous PRINTYPE, that writes like print, included FR.CH if
desired.
