JUVENILE SMOKERS.

There has been some newspaper
AK recently about the alleged phys
zeal deterioration OF the British. A
committee that counted among Us
members, Lord Beauchamp, the Bish-
op of Ripon. Lord Aberdare. Lord
Heneage and Lord Biddolph, after
thorough investigation, recommends
that a bill should be brought before
Parliament at an early date, having
for lts object TO prohibit the sale Of
tobacco and cigarettes to children be-

A NEW ELDERS JOURNAL.

For some time the idea OF starting
a publication to be called The Elders
Journal has been a subject Of consid-
Grafton among the leading authorities
Of the Church OF Jesus Christ Of Latter
day Saii.s This to be not IN the
nature Of newspaper or mere chron-
icler OF current events, but a magazine
devoted 10 historical and literary ar
ticles and data, IN convenient form for
binding. TO form volumes for the prl-
waite and public libraries Of the
Church

boy President Ben T.. Rich OF the South
crn States mission has formed found
alton Tor the carrying out Of this pro-
ject The Deseret News has. on sew
eral occasions. referred TO that y0lu-
able little publication and always with
pleasure and satisfaction II IL now
proposed TO enlarge that magazine and
10 incorporate with IL articles and dis
courses delivered in early times by
leading Elders OF me Church. on SUBJ
i,cts that are always OF interest TO the
Latter-day saints and 20 inqurers AZ
Ter me principles Of the latter-day Cos
pei Many Of these are TO be found
iu carly numbers Of the Millennal Star
and Of the Journal Of Discourscs and
Of The Dyseret News. and their repro
duction would please O. great many
persons who are not in possession u
those works
They would furnish articles ot iu-
formation and argument to Elders now

and have grown up iH the faith since
those writings were first published
Selections could he made from them
Of matter that would be both timely
aud profitable at the present and they
would prove interesting 10 the genera

principles that are priceless, and sug-
gest ideas that would lead 10 reflection
and inquiry into further intelligence
IN addition 10 such literature. the
movements OF missions and the ex-
perlcnces OF Elders and Saints at diff
ferent places in later times could be
given, as well as contributions from
able writer's on matters up to date.
Our friends can readily perceive how
such a publication could be issued. un-
der proper management, that would be
attractive and invaluable Elder Rich
has the matter in hand and will prob
ably take immediate steps TO issue the
Journal IN the proposed form monthly
to begin with, and win lay his plans
accordingly He has the approval Of
the presiding authorities IN the COM
mencement Of the work.
We mention the undertaking nov. 50
that the Latter-day Saints may be
prepared when solicited TO subscribe
to the publication and understand that
81 Is something worthy Of their support
We are sure that when It Is once
launched from the press It Will COM
mend itself to our people generally and
our missionaries IN particular. The
present Elders Journal will form a
good nucleus for the larger produc-
ton. and we will look for the new
work with eager anticipation and hope
/ for It's success.
