When this paper reaches you, there will be time enough for you to sell enough magazines to earn a half scholarship.
The entire August edition of the Protestant was sold out by Wednesday, August 19. Please order the September number.
For $1.00 we will place four Liberty subscriptions on our list for one year. As a partial reward for securing the four subscriptions we will also send the magazine to your address for one year.
From the Chronicle. May, 1914
Brother Steen Jensen, of Iowa, sends 48 more yearly subscriptions for Liberty. His list seems to be made up largely of clergymen, attorneys, and business men. The small sum of $2.00 will place 10 names on the subscription list for one year.
Brother S. H. Carnahan, connected with our Cuban Mission, sends six half-year subscriptions for the Protestant. Among those who will thus receive this magazine we note the president of Cuba, a prominent editor of Jerusalem, and other persons.
A patriotic business man of Philadelphia, Pa., has just sent in a money order for $9.00, accompanied by 15 yearly subscriptions for the Protestant Magazine. There are many such workers among the busy people. Have you sent in your list? Send $3.00 for ten six-month subscriptions, or $1.50 for five.
The September number of Life and Health contains some good articles on temperance and narcotics. We call it the “Vacation,” “What to Do First,” “Healthful Cookery,” and “Questions and Answers” number. The two articles, “Instead of a Vacation for Those Who Cannot Get One,” and “Vacations for Mothers,” appeal strongly to tied-down business men and mothers. Send $1.00 for 20 or $2.00 for 50 copies.
Brother H. A. Hebard, field missionary agent of the Nebraska Conference, writes: “I have taken 35 subscriptions for the Protestant, and sold nearly 200 copies besides. Have done this while about my other work. I carry some with me all the time, and when on the train have sold a number and taken several subscriptions from men from Illinois, Iowa, Georgia, Kansas, and Nebraska. I just received a letter from two sisters who sell the Protestant with the Signs, and they said it was encouraging to have the prominent men ask for the Protestant and then say, ‘I was just wishing some one would come around with it.’ I have had some good experiences with this magazine. I received a subscription from a railroad conductor, and after showing him from the Bible how the Roman power is coming back, he said, ‘I do not want to be here when that time comes.’”
A Michigan Orangeman sends the names and addresses of the secretaries of the Orange Lodges in his State, and requests that sample copies of the Protestant be sent to them. He says, “If you desire the names of other secretaries outside of Michigan, I will see that you get them.” Send $1.00 to your tract society to pay for mailing one September Protestant to 20 of these Orangemen. These may prove to be seed cast upon good ground.
Brother L. R. Ackerman, field missionary agent of the Utah Conference, writes: “To say that I have been very much interested in the splendid work done by the Protestant during the past months, is putting it mildly. I have been thinking seriously of making a strong effort to place a copy of this magazine in the hands of every clergyman in Salt Lake City, and am ordering 50 copies through our tract society for this purpose. The Protestant will reach a class of people with the truth for this time that can be reached in no other way.”
