READER REACTION from 4
CARGADERO
Sirs: The photo story, Cargadero, in the last issue was interesting, however, it left me wondering what the word cargadero means. Minneapolis, Minn. A nna Wilson W e find ourselves in the same po sition with reader W ilson! Film Pro ducer Brusseau tells us the word means burden bearer. But not all Spanish experts agree with Brusseau’s translation. The Appleton Spanish Dictionary translates the word as a loading place or freight depot. Two other sources we checked, a native- born Central American and a printer with a shop near M exico City, tell us the word for burden bearer is “ cargador” and not “ cargadero.” — ED. Sirs: Without a doubt many Christian people who read the letter by E. W. Johnson in the August issue (re: “ How God Answered My Prayer,” by Georgia Lee, July K.B.) have been astonished with a great astonishment. Nothing is too great or too small for God to do for His children. When it is His will and for our best good, physical healing through believing prayer is not to be scoffed at. (James 5:14,15.) Fredericktown, Ohio C. H. W right Sirs: The articles about Brother Law rence are high in their aim but I miss the lack of references to Christ or Jesus or the Scriptures. I also won der who wrote them or to whom the letters were addressed. As they stand, wouldn’t it be possible for these cults- which ignore Christ to find them useful to aspire to a lofty “ spir ituality.” Joshua Tree, Calif. Mrs. W. P. Needles Sirs: I find especially helpful the articles on practicing the presence of God daily. What a wonderful Christian truth and one which should be stressed more from our pulpits. It would solve so many problems of Christian conduct and amusement. V a n Nuys, Calif. Mrs. Dorothy M. Garthe The Conversations and Letters of Brother Lawrence has become a Christian classic, read and loved by countless thousands since its pub lication in French in the 16 hundreds. Brother Lawrence was Nicholas Her man, a cook in a monastery and the letters were written to friends. — ED. T H E K IN G 'S BU SINESS GEORGIA LEE BROTHER LAWRENCE
