Good Reasons.

By I. D. Van Horn

ELD. I. D. VAN HORN writes: I am decidedly in favor of another enlargement of the Review for the following reasons; 1st. The interest created by its recent enlargement among its readers as far as I have seen, has been nearly double, and, judging from the past, we may expect a similar result if it be enlarged again. 2d. Ministers and people have more than doubled their diligence in furnishing reading matter for its columns. This will be increased by another enlargement. 3d. The brethren and sisters where I have been, are calling loudly for it, and express their willingness to sustain it, since they have read the intimation of its being enlarged again.

For my own part, I will pledge myself to stand by it, and do all in my power to sustain it. I highly appreciate the past enlargement, and think the adding of four pages more will be a step in the right direction. I have asked God's blessing upon it in the past and shall continue to do so in the future.

Yes, let it go forth to its subscribers laden with rich food and a plenty of it, to feed the remnant, that they may be better prepared to meet the coming storms of the last days.
