Increased Price of the “Youth’s Instructor” and “Sabbath School Worker”

By Editor

The publishers of the Youth’s Instructor and Sabbath School Worker find that with the increased cost of production it will be no longer possible to furnish these journals at the old prices. The Review and Herald Publishing Association has no sinking fund to meet deficits which may occur on its publications, and we do not believe that our brethren and sisters will expect us to furnish any of our publications at less than the cost of production. It is true that many papers no larger than these journals are published in the world for a less subscription price, but these journals have a much larger subscription list to sustain them, and ordinarily they carry a large amount of paid advertising, whereas the pages of the Instructor and Worker are kept free from all commercial work of this character. Beginning with April 1, 1913, the following prices will be charged on these journals:—

“Worker”

Single subscription, one year . . . . . $ .50 *(Only full-year single subscriptions received)* Two or more copies, six months . . . . . .20 Two or more copies, twelve months . . . .35

“Instructor”

Single subscription, one year . . . . . 1.25 Single subscription, six months . . . . . .70
