INTENDED REDUCTION IN PRICE OF THE "MAGAZINE . "
THE MASONIC MIRROR .
* * All communications to be addressed to 19 , Salisbury-street , " Strand , London , W . C .
On Saturday , tlie 3 rd July , the price of tlie MAGAZINE will bo reduced to THREEPENCE . It is now nine years since the quarto series of the MAGAZINE was commenced , and it has ever since continued to be published at sixpence weekly .
For a considerable time past it has been in contemplation to reduce the price of this MAGAZINE ; and it is now many months since the intentions of the then proprietor wore made known by announcements in the advertising columns that a permanent reduction in price would be made as soon as the necessary
arrangements for that purpose could be completed , and a fitting opportunity occurred . It is now our pleasing duty to announce to our subscribers and friends the promised reduction ; and also that various improvements will be introduced into the MAGAZINE itself . In so doing we must of course look to a greatly extended support from the
members of the Craft for that reward , wliich we are assured by a very large circle of friends and supporters , such a step as that about to be taken will be sure to meet with ; still it is only by the active and energetic support of om- friends that such a venture can be made to succeed—more particularly in the case of a class journal—and by a greatly increased sale to cover the weekly
cost of production . The proposed reduction of the postage rates on newspapers , has been for some time past looked forward to as affording an opportunity for expecting the reduction in price of the MAGAZINE ; and it is believed that long before our next half-yearly
volume is completed , the anticipated reduction on the newspaper postage rates will be successfully introduced by the Post Office Authorities . And therefore the approaching commencement of a new volume has , under these circumstances , been considered an appropriate occasion for carrying out the long contemplated and previously announced intention , to reduce the sum of the MAGAZINE to THREEPENCE .
Whilst thanking the numerous subscribers and the zealous friends and supporters of the MAGAZINE for their past aid and labour on our behalf , we trust still to secure their hearty cooperation , so that , by their recommendations and otherwise , amongst the members of the Masonic Order , they may assist us
in so expanding the area of its usefulness and b y greatlyincreasing the number of its readers , thus give it still greater power and influence as the well-tried organ of the Craft at large .
