INTENDED REDUCTION IN PRICE OF THE " MAGAZINE . "
THE MASONIC MIRROR
.* . < f * All communications to be addressed to 19 , Salisbury-street , Strand , London , W . C .
On Saturday , the 3 rd July , the price of the MAGAZINE will be reduced to THREEPENCE . It is now nine years since the quarto series of tho MAGAZINE was commenced , and it has ever since continued to be published at sixpence weekly .
For a considerable time past it lias been in contemplation to reduce tlie 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 ivould 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 tbat various improvements will bo introduced into the MAGAZINE itself . In so doing ive must of course look to a greatly extended support from the members of the Craft for that reward , which we are assured by a very large circle of friends and supporters , such a step as tbat
about to be taken will be sure to meet with ; still it is only by tlie active and energetic support of our 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 .
Tbe proposed reduction of tbe 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 tho 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 ancl otherwise , amongst the members of the Masonic Order , they may assist us in so expanding the area of its usefulness and by
greatlyinereasing the number of its readers , thus give it still greater power and influence as the well-tried organ of the Craft at large .
