On the other side except the first issue this phrase is written: " If anyone sends news and scientific research to the Imperial press office, it will be written by his own name," and now instead of the aforesaid phrase it has been written in number one: " As the news of Dar-ol-Funoon school and the ministry of Health Care meeting was too much, in this issue it was sufficed to that, otherwise here we will write on all topics."
