“Signs of the Times Magazine”

By Editor

The Signs Magazine for 1917 appears in new form and new dress. It has adopted the size of the Temperance Instructor, a form of magazine which has become very popular with the reading public. In view of the greatly increased cost of paper, the magazine has been reduced to sixteen pages, but as the pages are larger than formerly, and as the type has been somewhat reduced in size, the difference is not so significant. It presents a very bright, newsy appearance, and we believe will be found readily salable by agents throughout the field. The regular subscription price of the journal is one dollar, with usual prices and discounts to agents. We believe that this change in the journal bids fair to make it even more popular that it has been in the past, and we earnestly hope that our brethren and sisters throughout the field will rally to give it a hearty support.

WRITING in October, from Tabriz, Persia, Brother F. F. Oster states that Sister Oster was recovering from an attack of typhoid fever. For eleven weeks they had been cut off from mails, and he asks our treasury department to start on further remittances to supply their needs during these days of partially interrupted missionary work.
