The Signs of the Times.—Vol. 10.

By Editor

THE Board of Directors, and all connected with the SIGNS, have had under careful consideration for some time past, what could be done to improve the paper, and make it still more acceptable to its patrons. We shall commence Volume 10 with a new out-fit, new type, new dress throughout. If possible we shall stereotype each form, and thus keep the type new and clear throughout the year.
Queries have been sent to us in regard to the stitching. Some have asked us how much more it would cost to open their papers and run them clear through the machine. It would not take long for any one to do so by their own paper; but we could not do so by 20,000 and mail them during the week. We have not been unmindful of this matter. It is the intention to begin the next volume with a machine which will fold and paste the paper. But this involves not only the expense of the machine, but material changes in the paper itself, the labor and expense of which cannot be appreciated by any not acquainted with the work. We will only say that as it is got up at present a folder and paster cannot be used. If it could it would have been used before this. Our patrons may rest assured that we shall do all that is possible to serve them, and the interests of the paper, and the cause of truth.
