Leader adds 3 racks

Readers of the Tri County Leader will now have the opportunity to pick up a copy of the newspaper at three new rack locations. Beginning this week, new stands are available at 4 Oakes Restaurant in Troup, the Whitehouse Post Office and Mr. J's Convenience Store in south Tyler.

"Mr. J's is our first newspaper rack outside of Whitehouse or Troup. We are adding that after a number of calls asking about Tri County Leader availability in Tyler," said Charlotte Smith, editor. "A south Tyler location is the obvious choice since it falls within the Whitehouse school district."

Single copies of the Tri County Leader are available at all rack locations, and the newspaper office, for 50 cents; home delivery for residents of Smith, Cherokee and Rusk counties is just $20 a year.
