The Family Group in Jamaica

THE REVIEW AND HERALD “family group” of periodicals is appreciated in other lands as well as at home. The following is copied from a letter recently received from Jamaica:—

“Are you going to make another clubbing offer as you did a year ago? If so, you may send me the same five-dollar club that you gave last year,—the whole REVIEW AND HERALD family; but if not, I shall have to eliminate some of them. It is like giving away one of our children to part with one of these dear papers. All are different, yet all are good, each filling its own sphere, and in its line the best there is.

“Let’s see: put down the REVIEW first. Can’t do without that. Next, we cannot keep house without the Instructor. So, put that down. Then, we shall have to have the Sabbath School Worker. What would our Sabbath-school amount to without the Worker? Then we must put in Education. Must have that to tell us how to educate our little daughter. Then there is the Protestant. We must have

that, too, to keep tab on the Catholics. Now we have left out in the cold Liberty and Life and Health. Well, we get Life and Health in a club; but I fear we shall have to leave Liberty behind this year unless you grant club rates. If you do, let us have the unbroken family. It is a good family. It has been a great help, and comfort, and source of instruction in our home, and it costs only five dollars a year. I do not know where I ever got so much for five dollars. It seems that some of our people get along for months and months without having that ‘family group,’ but I do not intend to try to get along without many of these papers. Too many good things in them to miss. They are a bargain every day in the year.” D. W. REAVIS.
