Double Last Year's Circulation

By Editor

THE Temperance number of the Youth's Instructor for 1909 reached a circulation of one hundred twenty-five thousand which was most gratifying to the publishers. We are pleased to state, however, that the edition for 1910 has reached a sale of one hundred thousand copies, and the campaign has but recently begun. Throughout the country everywhere it is meeting with a warm reception, and that, too, from all classes of people. David Starr Jordan, of Stanford University, gives these words of appreciation:—

Permit me to congratulate you upon the excellent work you are doing through the Temperance number of the Youth's Instructor. Among all the social problems of the day, there is none so important as the extirpation of the open saloon.

Miss Lucy Gaston, superintendent and founder of the Anti-Cigarette League of the United States and Canada, expresses her warm appreciation of this number of the Instructor:—

You have surely given to the world a most valuable contribution to the available temperance and anti-cigarette literature in your Temperance Instructor, some extra copies of which I am in receipt, and which I shall try to place where they will do the most good. I have gone through it carefully again with an appreciative friend and its value grows upon me. I am glad to know of its large circulation, and shall be glad to recommend it to workers.

These are but examples of the many good words being received from the friends of the publication from every quarter. We hope that our own people will as fully appreciate this valuable number, and will do everything in their power to give it a wide circulation — double that of last year — among their friends and neighbors. This its merit warrants.
