GOLDEN DAYS.--We commend this as the best of the class of publications
to which it belongs, and as being essentially different from all that
are contemporaneous with it. And if it shall prove to be like Moses’ rod
when turned into a serpent, and swallow up the serpent-rods of all
cunning magicians of evil, and then become a rod of power for working
good in the home, in the school, and wherever youth are found, we shall
rejoice.
*From the Christian Register, Boston.*
GOLDEN DAYS is well worthy the examination of parents who wish to
provide their children with a large amount of carefully-prepared
miscellany, at once entertaining, instructive and clean. It is edited
with ability, and shows a quick sympathy with the pleasures of the young
people, and a clear outlook for their welfare.
*From the Maryland School Journal.*
GOLDEN DAYS (Elverson, Philadelphia) has fulfilled its promise, and is
in every respect a suitable weekly paper to put into the hands of young
boys and girls. We have carefully watched each number since the start,
and have seen in it nothing to censure and much to praise.
*From the Floyd Co. Advocate, Charles City, Iowa.*
GOLDEN DAYS, published by James Elverson, of Philadelphia, is a new
first-class paper for boys and girls. Provide them with good,
entertaining reading, and they will grow up good men and women.
*From Town Talk, Mansfield, Ohio.*
James Elverson, Philadelphia, publishes a handsome illustrated and
interesting youth’s paper called GOLDEN DAYS. It should find a welcome
in every home for the young folks, for the reading is wholesome, and
such literature should be encouraged by prompt subscriptions. If the
youngsters catch a glimpse of it they will find they need it as a
recreation after study hours.
*From The Home and Sunday-School, Dallas, Texas.*
We can heartily recommend GOLDEN DAYS as one of the purest and most
charming juvenile magazines we have seen. It is wholly free from
corrupting influences--fresh, instructive, and eagerly welcomed by the
boys and girls. Having seen nothing in it to censure and much to praise,
we hope it may have the wide circulation it merits.
*From the Christian Advocate, Pittsburg, Pa.*
GOLDEN DAYS comes to us in a magazine form, making a beautiful and
interesting volume. This journal numbers among its contributors probably
more popular writers of serial stories for youth than any juvenile
publication in the country.
*From the Presbyterian Banner, Pittsburg, Pa.*
