THE WORK AND THE WORKERS

By Editor

Have you read the February or “Alcohol,” “Narcotics,” and “Common Ailments” number of Life and Health?
The “Statue of Liberty” and “Sunday Labor” number of Liberty is attracting considerable attention in Washington and other Catholic centers. Why? See the Bonzano letter and photos of Sunday labor on Catholic University.
Mr. A. A. Hainsworth, secretary of Peterboro Y. M. C. A., Ontario, writes: “I consider the Protestant Magazine one of the best of its kind, and one which should be in the library of every man who is zealous for religious truth and liberty.”
The articles “Accidents and Common Ailments” and “Special Exercises for Women” in the February Life and Health should be read by all. This number also contains forty other valuable articles and items—an excellent number to circulate in your neighborhood.
The Illinois Tract Society has just sent us a rush order for 1,000 copies of the beautiful February number of Life and Health. Note the excellent cover picture of the “Snow-shoe Girl.” Send $1.00 to your tract society for 20 copies, or $2.00 for 50. You will be surprised to find how easily they sell.
If you wish to close the mouths of deceivers who say that the Church of Rome never did believe and does not now believe in persecuting “heretics,” show them the photographs and documents in the February or “Rome and the Heretics” and “Papal Persecutions” number of the Protestant Magazine. This number will convince thousands of honest-hearted Catholics. Hand it or mail it to those with whom you are acquainted.
Why are Roman Catholics asked to keep sixteen instead of ten commandments? Why did Rome permit Sunday labor on the Catholic University? What would you be permitted to do on Sunday if Rome succeeded in enacting a Sunday law according to her ideas? These and many other questions are answered in the current number of Liberty—the “Statue of Liberty” and “Sunday Labor” number.
Rev. Edward C. Hall, pastor Christian Church, Oshawa, Ontario, writes under date of Jan. 15, 1913: “To all concerned: For several months I have been a reader of the Protestant Magazine, and am pleased to testify that it is ably edited, deeply spiritual, and reverent toward the great eternal truths of God’s Word. Its articles are worded with dignity, and are free from abuse and flippant language. Still it searches the best authorities for its facts, and prints only what can be depended on as authentic. Its criticisms are all the more powerful because certainly true, and one need not fear successful contradiction when he quotes from its pages any matter relative to the Roman Catholic Church. It should be in every pastoric library, and in all homes of Christian workers.”
Rev. G. Osborne Troop, St. Martin’s Rectory, Montreal, Quebec, writes thus: “From what I have seen and read of the Protestant Magazine, I believe it to be doing a good and sorely needed work.”
The repudiation of the word Protestant by the so-called “Protestant” Federal Council of Churches, in Chicago, Dec. 5, 1912, on the plea that it is “a word that is not a uniting but a dividing word,—a word that recalls a most unhappy and trying experience,”—should lead us to renew our allegiance to that noble word and to the principles of true Protestantism and religious liberty. Another argument peculiar to the underlying purpose of the organization was: “By using this word, you make it more difficult for many of your Christian brethren to work with you.” This elimination of the word Protestant was done to express the “earnest hope” for the “fellowship of Catholic unity.” “Then,” says an eye-witness, “the report was promptly and unanimously adopted, and with applause.” Let us rally to the circulation of Liberty and the Protestant Magazine as never before! Seventh-day Adventists are now the only Bible Protestants left! For $3.00 we will send this magazine to ten different addresses for six months, or to five for one year.
