Who Will Respond?

By D. A. Ball

To Brethren and Sisters in New York:

Knowing that it is impossible for me to enter all your homes to converse with you, I will do the next best thing, which is to speak to you through the columns of the REVIEW. God has moved on the heart of his servant to write and donate to the cause of education one of the best books that has come from the press, and the truths that it contains are especially applicable at this time. I refer to “Christ’s Object Lessons,” which contains a complete exposition of all the parables that the Master gave, beginning with the one of the sower, which contains a key to unlock all his teachings; for he said, “Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?” That parable, which is so nicely explained, is worth the price of the book; in fact, truth can not be estimated in dollars and cents.

Our quota in New York was ten thousand, of which six thousand have been sold. Now all the laborers in the conference will put in two months, beginning October 15, and we want the co-operation of every member in the conference, to close up this work, and to be ready for something else as it comes along; for there will be no time for idleness in this world, nor in the world to come. Who will respond to this rally, and help close up the work? Will you?

D. A. BALL.
