Oi KINGST Local and Personal. We are sending out a number of statements to subscribers in arrears. There are now on our books nearly 2,000 subscribers, many of whom have paid_nothing in a year or longer. We ask all tnese delinquents to settle up as soon as possible. Each account is made out up to the nearest year or half year. It may be that some who get these statements have already paid; if so just call our attention to the fact and we will cheerfully make the correction. All we want is what is due us and not a cent more. But we do want that. Mr D E Gordon was noted in town yesterday from Gourdin. Mr S A Tisdale of Central was an agreeable visitor in town Friday.
