W AS A CHILD OF THE r t s t t i t NIGHT I

This is our annual issue in which we gather together a wide variety of material setting forth the workings of Christianity. You will notice that this material has been chosen to fit under two categories: 1) W hat Christianity is and 2) H ow Christianity works. The lead article, "This Thing Called Christianity,” (page 8) is by our managing editor. This article is an attempt to set forth in orderly fashion the framework of the Christian faith. It is suggested this article be read first in order that the rest of the magazine might fall into proper perspective. Should readers have questions that they care to submit each will receive a personal and confidential answer. Some of you will want additional copies of this special issue for friends. These copies are 25c each, or five for just $1. Each copy will be mailed flat, in a strong en­ velope for protection. You may use the order blank below.

H IS FA TH ER W A S A D R U N K A R D . His stepmother was too busy with younger children to worry about Sandy. When the American Sunday-School Union missionary first saw him, Sandy was sullen and unhappy. The missionary invited him to Sunday school, but Sandy had no shoes and his clothes were in tatters. He didn’t want to go. ' The missionary prayed about Sandy, and then the inspiration came! Maybe he could get Sandy to go to summer camp! A Christian friend, hearing about Sandy, volunteered to provide clothes and money. At first Sandy was dubious. But when he saw pictures of the camp, tried on the new clothes and got letters from regular campers, he couldn’t wait for camp to start. That week at camp was the happiest Sandy had ever known. He made new friends, played games in the sunshine with other boys and every night he lis­ tened to stories about Jesus. The climax of the whole week came when, at the last service, Sandy went forward to accept the Lord Jesus as his Saviour. Sandy's is a true story. And there are many other boys and girls in rural America like Sandy — boys and girls waiting for a chance to hear about Jesus and His love. Your prayerful fellowship enables us to maintain Sunday schools and Bible Con­ ferences, and to send missionaries to these neglected children. Will you help?
