Christ's Object Lessons Printing and Sales Push

THE Review and Herald Publishing Company is finishing up an edition of 40,000 copies of “Christ’s Object Lessons.” Several of the mammoth power presses have been at work printing these books, and practically the entire bindery force has been at work binding them.
The Pacific Press Publishing Company has just finished an edition of 20,000 “Christ’s Object Lessons,” and is now at work on another 20,000 edition.
Printing so many books has been a tremendous strain on the Relief of the Schools Fund, but thus far we have been able to meet every bill promptly.
FOR many years we have been exhorting our people to sell our denominational books on commission. Lately we have asked the people to sell “Christ’s Object Lessons” without any commission, and we have succeeded in enlisting thousands upon thousands of workers. We have always been told that the only way that books would be sold was through “regular canvassers.” Lately, however, God has shown that he can do wonderful things through those who cannot be called regular canvassers. There is much food for thought in this matter. Love for the Master and for our schools has caused the people to sell scores of these books, when tempting offers and big commissions have proved of no avail. It is evident that the people love to work for the Lord more than they love to work for money.
