Concerning Suggestions from Our Subscribers ÏÏM ////////////////////////M W jW M SA > 77W W W M /»W /?M //W M /W M M M SS/SSSM SSMMMMMM !!n7nm 7Xmm fà In. response to our call in the July King’s Business, entitled THINKING OF 100,000 in which we asked for suggestions from our subscribers which, in their opinion, would aid us in increasing our subscription list to 100,000, we have received quite a large number of suggestions. ALL of these suggestions are GOOD, but we are waiting until, presumably, all have been received before making the award which, as stated, will be as follows: FOR THE BEST SUGGESTION— $30.00 LIBRARY; SECOND BEST— $20.00 LIBRARY. THIRD BEST— $10.00, LIBRARY. All of these books to be selected- from our publications. We are printing a few of these suggestions, some of which have already been put in practice by the writers. "In each issue urge readers to hand their copy to a friend (w ith prayer), and I believe many w ill want to subscribe. I have done this and am pleased to send you three new subscriptions, with my own renewal.” —R. G., 'Auburn, N. Y. . “ I think the best w ay is for each present subscriber to double his subscription and send The K ing’s Business to another person, so I am enclosing $1.00, and yon may send it to — — —Mrs. A. M., Ashtabula, Ohio. “ Ask each subscriber to pray fo r one new subscriber, or for a God-given dollar with which to send the magazine to a friend. Then the editors must pray that each reader may feel the necessity of doing his part.”—Miss E. C., Quincy, Mich. "If possible, every home which is now receiving The K ing’s Business should save a dollar to send it to another person every, year.”—H. M., Lancaster, Wis. “Ask every reader to pray God through His Son that the H oly Spirit w ill put it into their hearts to send $5.00 to The K ing’s Business for five new subscriptions, to- be mailed out to live persons, stating that one who loves God and H is truth is send- ipg them the magazine for a year. If, after reading it, they think it worth $1.00, then they may send that amount to the publishers, so that thé magazine may be sent to someone else. Enclosed find the first check for $5.00 to be used for this purpose.” —G. N. W., Kewanee, 111. "Have a group picture of leading Bible teachers who endorse The K in g’s Busi­ ness, giving name and denomination. Print this attractively, on good paper, asking subscribers to put it up in some prominent place— church, home, office— saying “ Sub­ scriptions for K in g’s Business received by -----------------.” A few sample copies to hand out would also help.”—V. C. K., Waterloo, Iowa. It will be noticed that the suggestions which we have printed are all along the line of ENLISTING THE AID OF THE KING’S BUSINESS FAMILY, and this is what we are earnestly desiring to do. Next month we will give sug­ gestions along other line^ In the meantime read our Christmas offer on page 1077 and “ get busy” . ^ ^ Met M t jH GROWING OR DYING?

mere pretty fancy of poetry, but for a great, awful, deep, world-wide lesson, that every tree in the fields may be a pat­ tern, a warning, to us thoughtless men, that as that tree is meant to grow, so our souls are meant to grow. As that tree dies unless it grows, so our souls must die unless they grow.— C. Kingsley.

If a tree is not growing, it is sure in the long run to be dying. And so are our souls. If they are not growing, they are dying; if they are not getting better, they are getting worse. This is why the Bible compares our souls to trees; not of a
