Publisher: Children’s Special Service Mission, 13a Warwick Lane, London E.C.
Run: 1879-(unknown).
Frequency: Monthly (20th of month).
Format: 16pp / 8pp smaller size photogravure (from the 1940s).
Price: 1d.
Comment: religious paper.
The magazine is a distinctly “worthy” one. It is subtitled “A Monthly Paper for Young People” and was “Issued by the Children’s Special Service Mission” in Paternoster Row in London, which is evidently a Christian institution of some kind. In 1915 the magazine was edited by T.B. Bishop, was profusely illustrated with a mixture of photographs and illustrations (which remind me vaguely of Paget from the Strand, but are by an artist whose name I can’t make out).
Each issue contained 10 or so vignettes with an overtly-Christian moral, followed by 2-3 pages on the scripture readings for each day of the month. The contents for January 1915 are as follows:
- · Godwin the Newsboy · Courthope Todd · vi
- · “It Struck Thirteen” · Evelyn M. Hingston · vi
- · What He Wanted · Anon. · vi
- · Only an Inn · K. M. Bell · vi
- · The Settler’s Dream · Elinor M. Rice · vi
- · Rosalind · Courthope Todd · vi
- · All the Difference · M. Hickley · vi
- · Clare’s Loyalty · Kathleen M. Bell · vi
- · Brother and Saviour · M. Hickley · vi
- · How the Melody Came · Elinor M. Rice · vi
