To Our Patrons.

By James White

We are sorry to state that on account of mistakes in the Office, not a few of the subscribers for the Review, Instructor, and Reformer, are receiving two or more copies when they have ordered but one. These mistakes have occurred by the singular blunder of frequently sending an additional copy to a subscriber when he made a remittance for his paper. In every case when a new copy is not definitely ordered, the clerk should turn to the lists, and find the name of the subscriber. There is no apology for such blunders.

We now request that all persons who are receiving copies of our periodicals that they do not want, will immediately write to the Office. Important changes have taken place at the Office, and we had hoped that the time for all such needless blunders had passed.

Our patrons may be assured that we shall do all in our power to have all the business of the Office done correctly, and in a prompt, liberal style. Pay for no more papers than you want. If losses occur on account of mistakes at the Office, let them be the losses of the Association, not of subscribers. But this favor we earnestly urge of all who are receiving papers that they do not want, that they immediately write, clearly stating the facts in the case.

JAMES WHITE, Pres. S. D. A. P. A.
