TWO weeks ago the manager of the Protestant Magazine received a telephone message from the general office of the Seaboard Air Line Railroad, Washington, D. C., stating that a special messenger was on the way to Takoma Park to secure three copies of the June and three of the February numbers of the Protestant Magazine for their traveling passenger agent from —. The interest in back numbers of this fearless yet dignified monthly seems to be on the increase.

Do you know that Dec. 8, 1914, is the date set by Roman Catholic leaders for a general bombardment, by letters, of our senators, representatives, Postmaster-General, and Secretary Bryan, petitioning them to help bar Protestant periodicals from the U. S. mails? Let every true Protestant use the Protestant LETTER-PROTEST to these same government officials, calling for HANDS OFF A FREE PRESS. See suggestive letter opposite page 497 of the November Protestant Magazine. Cut it out, fill in the blanks and sign it at once, or copy it off and mail a copy to your senators, your Congressmen, to Postmaster-General Burleson, and to Secretary Bryan, State Department. A copy sent to President Wilson, White House, Washington, D. C., would also not be amiss. Do this at once! Hand the November Protestant out where it will count most. Send $1.00 for 20 or $2.00 for 50 copies.

The New York World for Oct. 29, 1914, refers to “the Protestant Magazine, a monthly periodical published at Washington, of unknown circulation, the editors being W. W. Prescott and W. A. Spicer, his associate.” On page 4 of that issue it continues: “The June number of the Protestant Magazine, which is also finding extensive circulation in the State, devoted several of its forty-five pages of text to attempts to show that ‘the Roman Catholic hierarchy was largely interested in securing his [Mr. Sulzer’s] removal from office.’” Then follows a description of the “Picture Section” of our June number, and a quotation one foot long from “an interview between the editor of the Protestant Magazine and Mr. Sulzer at the latter’s office, at No. 115 Broadway, April 23, 1914.” These quotations or references to this magazine appeared also in the New York Evening Post, the New York Times, and in thousands of other newspapers throughout the country. Many are now inquiring for sample copies of the Protestant Magazine as the result of this unusual publicity. Only a few copies of the June number may be had, at 10 cents each, or 25 cents for 5 copies. Mailed to different addresses.
