Excerpt from The Patriotic Marylander, Vol. 2: First Quarter September, 1915

All subscriptions to The Patriotic Marylander that began with the Centennial, or first, number, September, 1914, expired with the June number, 1915. The second year begins with this number. We hope that all our subscribers have been so well pleased with the first years publication that they will not only send us their renewals, but will also subscribe for some friend who does not know our magazine.

We put the price of our quarterly at the low figure of 50 cents per annum, that it might not be a tax upon anyone and that we might have a large circulation for the interesting historic facts that it contains. Our circulation is growing, but does not as yet pay all expenses connected with the publication. We therefore earnestly beg all our subscribers to help us increase the circulation. Any money over and above expenses will be used for patriotic work. We believe the first year has proven our magazine worth keeping alive and we hope you will help us to do this.

We need at least one thousand more subscribers to put us on a safe basis. Please make yourself responsible for two subscriptions, or more if you are interested.

We extend cordial thanks to all those who have stood by us - patron founders, contributors and subscribers - in our first year of trial, and sincerely hope for your continued patronage.
