H u n t Wonderful things might be accom plished if congregations were instructed and encouraged along Bible lines in the matter of stewardship-proportionate giv ing. Ideally, such training should begin® with boys and girls of Primary age. When children give, they give wholeheartedly. Not long ago, there came to my notice a letter from a teen-age country boy who enclosed five cents to help train Bible Institute students. The letter said: “I will endeavor to send five cents monthly for nine months as God may prosper me.” The lad paid the pledge in full, and in time increased it manyfold. He learned in his youth the satisfaction of giving System atically. . Another boy, five years^of age, sent $2.00, received as a birthday gift, saying that he “wanted to help others know about Jesus.” What Christian parent would not rejoice if his or her child showed a similar disposition to give to the Lord? When a boy or girl has learned, in his or her youth, to give regularly to the Lord, it is not surprising to find that the testi mony of the individual when grown is like that of a Biola student who recently wrote: “Ever since I began tithing, there has been in my own personal life an increase of spiritual blessing, a greaterlfjoy in my prayer life, and a satisfaction resulting from having a definite share in God’s program.”. Why not “give God a chance” by in creasing the amount of teaching concern ing spiritual, systematic stewardship— making the matter plain to even very young children? From the human point of view, such a method would insure the financing of the various phases of God’s work in the future, by men and women who had been trained to give.

I could see that she was think ing if the minister wasn’t good enough to be saved, then no one would be saved. At last she said, “How then do you get saved ?” , Then I had the joy of explaining to her that we were all so bad that the only way we could be saved was for Jesus to take our sins and suffer and die for us. And then I told her that God promises that if we will just believe in the Lord Jesus— accept Him in our hearts—He will save us instantly, even though we are not good. I showed her that if we receive the Lord Jesus, God will give us new hearts and give us power to be good. I then led her to accept Jesus as her own Saviour. Again I asked her whether she was saved. Now, with a look of joy, she replied that she was. ^ g - J . I rvin O verholtzer . How to Join the K. Y. B.

These are days in which Christian people are eager to know where, especially in their.community, sound Christian literature may be purchased. Readers who live in the San Francisco Bay district will be glad to know of the excellent service that is offered by the Western Book and Tract Co., located at 1730 Telegraph Ave., Oak land, Calif. Located in the heart of Oakland’s down town district, the work has been going forward steadily for twenty years. Only strictly fundamental and evangelical litera ture is carried. It is a custom in the store to inclose a tract in every package that is sent out, and to pray definitely that God will bless the reading of the literature that honors His Word. Besides a fine selection of Bibles, Testa ments, Sunday-school supplies, and greet ing cards, the company has in stock all the books and pamphlets of its President, H. A. Ironside. In the Oakland book store, Dr. Ironside’s writingsl!|ank next to the Scriptures in popular demand. Touring Palestine at the present time, Dr. Ironside, who is pastor of the Moody Memorial Church, Chicago, is expected to bring out a new book in the near future dealing with the Holy Land and its prophetic signifi cance. The K ing ’ s B usiness is glad for this opportunity tbf express gratitude for the fine cooperation that the Western Book and Tract Company has given to this magazine. Not long ago, Miss Louise M. Deimel, the secretary-treasurer of the Oakland firm, wrote: “We sell more copies of the K ing ’ s B usiness than of any other religious periodical.” Christian Book Club Operated under the auspices of the Young People’s Church of the Air, Phila delphia, the Pinebrook Book Club is of service to hundreds of Christians, supply ing them with authentic information about the latest and most outstanding Christian literature. Percy Crawford, a graduate of the Bible’ Institute of Los Angeles in the class of 1926, heads the editorial com mittee and is pastor of the church that sponsors the club. Only books that are fundamental in doc trine- are offered. Each month, the edi torial committee designates one book as their selection that month, and at the same time they select from fifteen to thirty other books which are recommended as alternates. A member of the club is not obligated to purchase the specific book chosen by the committee, nor is he obliged to purchase twelve books a year, one each month. A minimum of four books must be purchased within a year. The club member has the privilege in any month to do one of three things: He may either pur chase the book selected by the committee, or he may purchase one of the alternate books selected, or he may instruct the club that he wishes to purchase none at all. He is enabled to make his decision each month by means of careful advance reviews. There are no fees nor dues to be paid, the only cost being the regular retail price of books purchased. During May, the latest book of J. Edwin Orr, This Is the Victory, will be sent free to all members who join the club that month.
