FROM WEEKLY TO MAGAZINE.
In the issue of the 18th of August, Munsey’s Weekly announced that thereafter that publication would be issued monthly and in magazine form, instead of weekly, and that the name would accordingly be changed to Munsey’s Magazine. This departure has been made in the belief that the Magazine will furnish broader scope for serious work than the Weekly, that its ample pages and higher grade of art will remove it to a more desirable distance from the daily press, which with its illustrations and its great Sunday issues has, to a very great extent, usurped the position once held by the illustrated weekly journals of this country.
Now that the transition from Weekly to Magazine is accomplished it will be the purpose of the management to make Munsey’s Magazine a publication of the best grade—one that shall be strong in illustration, instructive in its heavier articles and entertaining in its fiction. Life is a necessary condition of growth, and as we now have life so shall growth follow—growth in everything that goes to round out a magazine in whatever approaches the ideal.
