Articles for Patrolling are due as indicated by the schedule below. Please ensure that & have your input prior to that date. We receive some really great stories, and are looking forward to a super issue, so please see that we have maximun unit participation. About 90% of the negative input I receive from members concerns how they feel when they get their magazine and see that there is no input from their unit. Believe it or not, the first impulse, many times, is to blame me for leaving it out, not the unir director for not submitting it in the first place. Also be aware of the following: 1. Please do not imbed photos with text. 2. If you are sending text in any format other than "Word", please send it in the body of an e-mail. 3. Make sure that photos have captions & that I can match the caption with the photo. Thanks, John Chester

Look for the 
button on the "HOME"
tab, left menu. Click it and sumbit your article.
Use MS Word if at all possible. I can also deal with Corel Word perfect and with MS Works. If you must send me a hard copy, please mail a good original, don't fax it. A fax transmission has less clarity & it is hard for the scanner to read it. * Do not embed photographs into or with text of your article. Submit text and photographs separately. Place a notation in the text of the article where you want the photograph to be placed.
If you are e-mailing, use the jpg or gif format. If hard copy photos are furnished, number them & put the owners name & address on back. Indicate where in the article you would like them. Clearly indicate captions for each photo.
* Do get your submission to me by the established deadline, (or before).
* Do supply captions for the photos
you've submitted. Captions should state who,
what, where
& when for each picture.
* Do not embed photographs into or with text of your article. Submit text and photographs separately. Place a notation in the text of the article where you
want the photograph to be placed and I will place it myself.
* Do not send articles by fax transmission.
This causes the text in the document to become blurry and unreadable by the scanning
software. It must then be retyped by the editor.
Thank you!
