The Golden Age, “The Mission of the Golden Age”

2 de dezembro de 1925 · pp.139-141 · Woodworth, Hudgings & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“We make no claim to infallibility, but do try to be honest, fearless, sincere and helpful. If we make mistakes forgive us. We repent “seventy times seven”. ... Hereafter we shall publish no advertisements or articles other than the books of the International Bible Students Association, nor any writeups of articles which, however valuable they may be, might seem to be hints to purchase.”

An unsigned editorial reprinting the magazine's 1919 salutatory and adding an admission that some earlier announcements had been 'inadvisable or premature'. In the same item the magazine defends the April 1925 Biola article 'as a vindication of our judgment in publishing the original article' and prints eleven readers' testimonials for the device, omitting only their post offices.

Notes. This is the nearest thing to a retraction the magazine printed on the Biola, and it is not one: the device is defended in the same breath. The undertaking to stop printing what 'might seem to be hints to purchase' was not kept: articles by Dr Betts, who sold a book on aluminium poisoning, continued to appear at least until 1935.
