What is the searching secret for NewspaperArchive.com?  Using advanced
search on the exact phrase or name 'everyday low prices' in all papers in
all years I got responses only back to 1962.  Limiting the years from 1759
to 1945 yielded zero hits.  Limiting from 1900-1930 also yielded zero hits,
as did limiting from 1920-1930.  Only when I searched for the exact date Feb
23 1928 did I get two hits--both on what seem to be the same instance in the
same paper.  Does my not being a member affect the search procedure?  There
is no notice to that effect that I can find.
