A Question Answered

By Editor

THE message to our cities is the paramount issue at the present time. Much space has been given the matter in the REVIEW, our conference papers, and in special readings. Our people are heartily in accord with the plans which are under way. Many of our ablest ministers and Bible workers are being assigned to these difficult posts. Does our duty as laymen end when we pray for these workers, and give of our means for their support? Are we to shift the entire burden on those at the front, and merely wish them Godspeed? Many will ask, What more can I do? We answer, Send an “able minister” yourself, one that has won hundreds to the truth—the Signs of the Times Weekly. There isn’t a shadow of a doubt that others will take their stand with us through reading the Present Truth series of the Signs, which begins November 1. Will some of your friends be among the number?

Get us a list of five or more names, and have the papers sent to your friends direct from the office of publication. They will cost but 65 cents each for the six months. Clubs of five or more to corps of workers in the cities, 62½ cents a copy for the series.

We call particular attention to one special feature connected with this series, as shown in the very striking cartoon by Mr. Maybell—the great black hand stretched out over the nations with its five restless, grasping fingers, like the tentacles of a devil-fish, which are gathering souls for destruction. These five digits of the hand are War, Greed, Apostasy, Spiritism, and Papacy or Tradition. There will be from three to five articles on each one of these, showing their use by Satan in these last days; and this setting forth of the evils which the world must face, is worth more than the whole series will cost.

This diagram gives only a partial list of contents for the six months, beginning November 1. Limited space will not admit of a more lengthy description, but suffice it to say that our people will not be disappointed in this Present Truth series, which the publishers confidently expect to make better than any former series.

Address your tract society, or Signs of the Times, Mountain View, Cal.
