Increase of Magazine Postage.
Owing to new regulations by the Post Office authorities, the postage of the Free Presbyterian Magazine is now one penny each for single copies. The charge for book post is a halfpenny for one oz., one penny for two ozs.; and the Magazine weighs more than one oz. This new charge will amount to 5d. extra from July, 1918, to April, 1919, end of Magazine year. The total price of the Magazine for twelve months at this rate is now 3/6, instead of 3/ as hitherto. The Editor and Treasurer (Rev. J. S. Sinclair, 248 Kenmure Street, Pollokshields, Glasgow) will be obliged for the additional payment from subscribers.
Magazines to U.S.A.
The former rule for Magazines to the United States, to the effect that they must be sent through newsgents, who have a special licence, has been renewed. This means an additional cost of one halfpenny per copy. The Magazine to U.S.A. is thus 4/ (or about 1 dollar) per annum. As we were not aware of this change at the end of May, a number of the June Magazines were returned by the censor, which we forwarded again through Messrs. Menzies & Co., West Nile Street. Subscribers must excuse delay of receipt.
Note to Readers.
We regret that, though we have added eight pages to the present number of the Magazine, we are compelled to hold over to the August number a large amount of Synod matter, as well as other articles, including the “Gaelic.”
