THE DECEMBER SENTINEL

By Editor

The November number of the Sentinel was a little delayed on account of the Conference, as already announced. The December number, which will be issued soon, will complete the volume; and then, according to the decision of the committee to whom the matter was referred, as reported in another column, its publication will be suspended till such facilities shall be provided as will enable those having it in charge to issue it under more favorable circumstances. The principal drawback has been a lack of help to bestow upon it the attention and labor which was designed in the beginning, and which it should receive in order to answer fully its design. We do not anticipate that the suspension will be long continued; for there is a field for such a journal to fill. But no more subscriptions should be sent in till further announcement. Most of the subscriptions expire with the volume; but a thousand or more are dated from the middle of the volume, and will not expire till July, 1885. What is due on these subscriptions will be made up in any other publication at the option of the subscriber. All that is necessary is for them to send a postal stating what they will have. But if any have not sufficient choice in the matter to do this, we will at the expiration of three weeks from the time the last number is issued, send these persons back numbers of the Sentinel from the beginning of the volume to the time when their subscription commenced, thus giving them the full volume of the Sentinel. The first numbers are equally valuable with the later ones; and the whole volume is worth preserving for future reference.
