However, long-range financing is necessary if the Times is to continue to be published on a regular basis and if it is to maintain the quality of typesetting and printing by which it is characterized. Anyone interested in helping to solicit advertising or to work on long-range fund-raising goals, please contact Katie Kurtz, 727-6377 We appreciate our loyal supporters and business advertisers; without whom, The Times would not be the important presence it is in the Skinker-DeBaliviere community.
