“Stop My Review”

By Editor

Occasionally we get a letter which says, “Please stop my REVIEW for the present.” Such a letter starts a train of thought somewhat like this: This subscriber says, “Stop my paper, I don’t care to read of the success of the message in the home land nor in other lands. I do not need the instruction and encouragement which are given by Sister White’s Spirit-filled messages and by the editorials and general articles from our foremost workers. I do not desire the help of the Home Department nor of the special readings furnished for missionary conventions and for the week of prayer. I am not interested in the progress of our denominational institutions nor in the plans of the General Conference for the advancement of the work in all its branches. In short, I have lost real, vital interest in the idea that Christ is to come in ‘this generation,’ and I can use my money in a way that is more pleasing to me.”

Such musings as these may take an extreme view of the case, but if the conclusions are wrong, then there is no good reason to order your paper discontinued; for any one who desires the paper, but does not have the money to pay for it when his subscription expires, can, by correspondence with his conference tract society or with this Office, arrange to have the REVIEW sent for two or three months until payment can be made. Think this over when you are planning to say, “Stop my paper.”

Many subscriptions expire this month. Look at your wrapper and see if yours does, and if so, make arrangements at once to have it continued.
