From practically every quarter this new policy has been viewed with a congratulatory attitude. It has long been felt by the listener that weekly radio information is superfluous in consideration of the very infrequent changes of schedules in broadcasting studios. In lieu of paying ten cents a week, amounting to forty or fifty cents a month for RADIO DOINGS the same programs plus much other entertaining and useful radio information can now be obtained for only twenty-five cents a month in the new monthly magazine. The truth is that hours on the air have varied so imperceptibly during any one month that many of RADIO DOINGS' friends have impressed us with the fact that for a year's time and longer they have purchased their copy only once a month and the advance broadcasting information has retained its reliability and value for the entire next thirty days! This only serves as an indication that the period is past wherein presentations must be preceded by published notices daily or weekly. There is little more reason for this than to constantly print new theatre programs for the same show. However, to the great advantage of those who use RADIO DOINGS is the addition of more quality, accuracy and volume of contents permitted by the extra time between publication dates now in effect. This carries added importance since the magazine in the past could not be printed weeks ahead of time such as all weeklies of a general nature, because of the lastminute programs coming in for publication. Now there will be a whole month in which to compile every last detail of helpful material that will be of most value and interest to you. Patience and indulgence on your part will be most gratefully acknowledged while it is being proven that the new monthly RADIO DOINGS offers the very things you most want in the full enjoyment of your radio entertainment.
