King's Business - 1952-11

ecider ¡Reaction We wish for our readers and their families the most blessed Thanks­ giving they have ever known. “ Smoking Women” In the July number I was pleased to read the editorial about “ Smoking Wom­ en.” I am glad there is someone who will lift up his voice against the cig­ arette habit which is now so common among the women of our land. It has amazed me much that so many elderly women who should know better are slaves to this menace. M rs . H . A nderson Los Angeles, Calif. “ From Cover to Cover” I am a regular subscriber to your fine monthly magazine for a long time. My late husband used to read it from cover to cover and he derived much benefit from the excellent articles contained therein. I too, still look forward to each publication. M r s . H . H . S tac ey Vancouver, B. C., Canada “ Bible Game” I greatly enjoy the whole magazine, especially the Question Box. Readers’ remarks are also entertaining. I have a little game I play as I go on the bus or am at the corner waiting for the light to change or even in a grocery store as I trundle a wire cart along. I ask the Holy Spirit to direct me and then say to some lady near me, “ I’d like to ex­ change a favorite Bible verse with you.” I often give mine first just to show what I mean. Romans 10:9 is very good and I often say a number . . . If they seem to hesitate, I say, “You know the 23rd Psalm, don’t you?” It often starts a little conversation which is a testimony to the Lord Jesus. Eleven have given “ The Lord is my shepherd.” M r s . J a y H . W a lk e r San Diego, Calif. “ Cheap Tracts” I’ve enjoyed reading your magazine but don’t like the article in “ Editorially Speaking” about cheap tracts. I have known of souls being saved from reading those tracts and they are just as precious to our Saviour as souls saved by other means. I have a very small income but tithe and give it where I think it is needed. Have been sending some to the Bible Institute . . . here­ after I will send it to the people who print tracts. It may help them to buy better paper. B e r t h a H ogue Canoga Park, Calif. N O V E M B E R , 1 9 5 2
