We regret very much to inform our Canadian friends
that our magazine, TRITE ROMANCES, has been barred
by the custom or post•ofiice officials,
Magazines are barred from Canada because of com-
plaints registered against them. We fired, however, that
adverse critics of our publications rarely read them. Siem
the title and general appearance they sometimes class them
with publications which depend entirely upon their' sale
through lascivious appeal. As a reader of this publication
you know that the magazines we publish. are not of that
character.
We would be greatly, pleased, therefore, if you would in-
dicate your friendly feeling toward TRUE ROMANCES and
your confidence in it by petitioning the Conunissioner of
Customs, Ottawa, Canada, that such reinstatement be made.
At the foot of this announcement is a brief form of
petition provided for'your convenience. Will you not sign
it to -clay and mail it to E. J. Iilacicley, 130 Richmond St.
