An Urgent Macedonian Call “ SEND MORE TESTAMENTS” A N URGENT appeal has just been received to send more Testaments quickly to Brazil with its r A 40,000,000 people seething with revolution. The cablegram is from Frederick C. Glass, the most noted distributor o f the Word o f God in Latin America; and author o f “ Adventures with the Bible in Brazil.” Mr. Glass appeals to all God ’s children to “ give one or more copies” as the "time is short” and “ multitudes are perishing.” Here is the text o f his cabled appeal:—

W H AT OTHERS SAY One who has been laboring in Brazil for more than 40 years says: ‘‘I have never known such widespread interest in the reading of the Bible, and such large and increasing demands for it.” A pastor in Porto Rico writes: “The 2,000 Testaments award ed me were distributed among people in all parts of the island. I personally know of 600 souls that have been saved through the use of the Testaments I have distributed.”
W H AT A BISHOP SAYS
Bishop T. K. Hershey, who has charge of the work of the Men- nonite Church in the Argentine Republic, wrote us: “ I am looking for this, campaign to bring about the much-needed revival we are all praying for.” In another letter he tells how they are giving out the Testaments carefully, and following up the gift with prayer and visitation in the homes. He writes i “ We wish special blessing from above for those who are contributing to this wonderful work. 1 wish I could thank them all.’’
SEND TESTAMENTS TO SAVE SOULS Each 25 cents sends a copy of a beautiful New Testament to the people of Latin America. Sixteen colored pictures of scenes in Palestine and Syria adorn the pages of each Book. Surely every one who reads these lines can send at least one copy! Some can send ten : some one hundred; some one thousand. Think of placing a beautiful Spanish or Portu gese Testament in the hands of a perishing soul for only 25 cents! What a privilege! What a jo y ! AND WATER THE WORD W ITH PRAYER And don’t fail to water the Word with your prayers day by day. The missionaries send glowing reports o f hungry hearts and open doors. Let us pray for still greater blessings— for glorious revivals throughout these needy lands.
