THE
¡deader l^eaction Young People's Articles For some tme I have planned writing about an article that appeared in your November issue entitled, “ Young People, God Has' the Answer!” I loaned my magazine to one of the girls in my office to read and she was so much impressed by that article that she requested the privilege of passing it along to many of the girls in her “ crowd.” Now this girl is not a Christian, and yet she could see the advisability o f letting God direct young people’s amusements. Others in her group were also impressed and they have all asked me to let them read my King’s Business each month. I am pray ing that God through this means may make an entrance into the lives o f these young girls and that they may learn to love Him, and give themselves to Him. I am grateful to Dr. Orr for those “ In formal Chats with Young People.” ' — M rs . R. B. R ichards Omaha, Nebr. I wish I could explain how we appre- ciate that subscription to The King’s Business. The articles about “ Dancing,” “ Movies,” “ Smoking,” “ Cards,” “ Pro fanity,” “ Girl’s Personal Appearance,” “ To Drink or Not to Drink,” certainly did sink in ! They showed both my hus band and me that slang was “ bad,” so we’ve tried to cut it right out of our speech. — M rs . L evi R utan Groton, New York. Dr. Talbot's Missionary Journey One of our co-workers here receives The King’s Business and so we have the joy of reading it. While our two chil dren— 6 and 7 years of age, were home for their three months’ vacation (they just returned to school a week ago) I read them Dr. Talbot’s articles on his trips to Borneo and India. Our little boy was especially interested in them and one day he asked me if Dr. Talbot was back from his trips and I told him that he was. “ Did he really go around the world in his travels?” “Yes.” “ Well, then, why didn’t he come and see us?” — M rs . H arley R utherford Harar, Ethiopia, East Africa. Reading the Bible Through I have never completely read the Bible from beginning to end, consecutively. Your article in The King’s Business, Jan. 1950, Editorially Speaking, “ Have You Ever Read the Bible Through?” was a great blessing and I intend to begin this reading at once. '■ —M rs . L. R. S mith Los Angeles, Calif. Appreciation from an Elderly Reader When The King’s Business comes, we literally devour it. It is so helpful I love every word o f it, from start to finish, (Continued on Page 18) M A Y , 1 9 5 0
