Hereafter it will be published in conjunction with the Liahona, at Independence, Mo., under the title "Liahona, the Elders' Journal." By the terms of consolidation the new paper will be the logical successor of the ELDERS' JOURNAL; it will begin with volume five and in addition to being the official organ of all the American missions it will continue to be a scrap book of "Mormon" literature. The matter for volume four of the ELDERS' JOURNAL has been selected with the utmost care. It has been our aim to publish the best thoughts on the Gospel of Christ, and the strongest and most convincing arguments in support of its principles. Many of the articles are from the pens of the great pioneer missionaries of the Church, who wrote and spoke as they were moved upon by the Holy Spirit. It has been our policy to give as much space as possible to these rare writings, first because of their great merit, and second, because the publications in which they were first printed are so scarce that only a few people have access to them. We believe that incalculable good has been accomplished by the reproduction of these priceless. gems of Church literature. Pursuant to numerous requests which have come to us we are having a limited number of volumes bound, which can be had by sending your orders to us. Chattanooga, Tenn.
