In a full page advertisement put out by the Interchurch World Movement, a quotation from Horace Bushnell is fea tured. Bushnell said, “ One more re vival only is needed, the consecration of the money power to God. When that comes the Kingdom of God will come in a day.” Bushnell was a popu lar preacher of Unitarian sermons and the writer of very unsound books on theology.

PRINTED PAGE DID IT A King’s Business subscriber writes as follows: “ Enclosed find $2 for The King’s Business. I ca'nnot afford to be without it. It was through The King’s Business that I found my way back to God. One day I found a copy of this magazine on the wayside. I picked it up and it seemed I could not help but stop and read it.
