Saved Through an Article When our oldest boy was 2% years old, I wrote to tell you how he had learned to know that “We’ve a Story to Tell to the Nations” was Dr. Talbot’s song. And now The King’s Business has been the means by which he has come to know Christ as his Saviour! In the last issue Was a story entitled, “What It Means to Be a Christian,” and as usual I read it to my two boys before going on' to read the other good articles and lessons for myself. After finishing the story, Danny (aged 4, and saved several months ago) said, “ Mommy, I think we should pray for Allan to be a Christian.” So after explaining that Allan himself had to want to be saved, we talked about how to be saved, and Allan admitted that he wanted to be a Christian. So on our knees beside the davenport Allan prayed, “ God, I want to be your child’. Thank you for Jesus’ sake. Amen.” And such joy it has been to him and to us. Now we all belong to Christ in our family—thanks to the will and plan of God, and to all His instru ments, one of which is The King’s Busi ness. — M es . E . M . S cott Centralia, Wash. Texas Heard From I want to especially express my appre ciation for an article in the October is sue by Rev. D. M. White, of Bassett, Va. Being a native Texan, the old expression would be that Brother White’s message “packs a powerful wallop.” I am praying ’for your staff there, asking God to make you a great blessing to many. . — S.

Al- nough I am in the “ sunset of life” I read them all, and wish all young people 'erywhere could read them.
