The Review to the Poor.
By Editor
A SISTER writes: “As no one has spoken against enlarging the Review, I would like to inquire if it would not be taking it out of the reach of the poor, who find it as much as they can do to pay for it at the present price?” We answer, No; because it is the express intention of the publishers, publicly avowed in connection with the enlargement of the paper, and increase of price, that the worthy poor should still have it free, by their reporting themselves to the Office, and stating their condition and wishes, once a volume. It is expected that those who cannot pay full price, will pay what they can. And when those who have the paper free, meet such a change in their circumstances, that they can pay, they will of course esteem it a privilege to do so. Many have already done so. This is right. We would also again remind the brethren of the commendable plan upon which some of the churches are acting, that is, let each church ascertain who of its members are entitled to the Review free, and see that they have it, the church paying the expense. A church can look after its own poor more understandingly than persons at a distance. On the plans and terms here proposed, none need go without the paper, whatever their circumstances may be.
