Magazines have come and gone during
the past half a century, many of them
too, and it is surely with pride that the
Youths Companion points to its career
as an instructor and educator of the
youth of the land Not many years ago
the publishers, Perry Mason 81 Co.,
moved into their present quarters and
from the opening Of its new home down
to date the magazine has steadily in
creased its circulation. Long before it
could lay any great stress upon the
number Of its subscribers it had gained
the prestige that it holds today, that of
being the cleanest magazine published
for young men and women. 1t was
simply the following of the high ideal
set by its promoters that has brought
it head and shoulders above its nearest
competitor. The boy or girl that reads
the Companion each week are not the
type given to cigarettes and love stories.
The Youths Companion has always
stood for the purest it could find as
reading for young people and glance
back through a file of the magazine
during the past quarter Of a century
reveals the most salient events the his
tory of that period chronicled.
