BROTHER RUSSELL’S SERMONS

The Brooklyn Eagle advises that it has received a great many requests for the sermons, but for the present it concludes not to publish Brother Russell’s sermons. Should it change its opinion later we will advise our readers.

Meantime do not forget to encourage by letters and cards those papers that are publishing the sermons—especially the one located nearest to your home. Encourage also by your own subscription or those of your friends. If a paper ceases to publish the sermons, please do not berate it, but merely in kindly terms express your disappointment at the loss and your hope that the sermons will be continued. The proper time to encourage the Editor is while the sermons are a regular feature.

Report concerning Volunteer Matter. We have no method of checking our printers except as you assist us. Please, therefore, report to us on post-card the receipt of your Volunteer consignment—stating how many bundles you received and the condition in which they arrived, and how many papers to each bundle. You need not count every bundle, but average them; count about two. One brother recently reported that his bundles of one hundred averaged only ninety-seven. This small shortage on a million copies would amount to thirty thousand. Kindly assist us in this matter.

PUBLISHERS’ NOTICES

[CONTINUED FROM 2ND PAGE]

BROTHER RUSSELL’S JERUSALEM TRIP

Curiosity as to why Bro. Russell takes the trip to Jerusalem is not to be wondered at amongst our readers. He is recognized as being intensely practical and having a reason for every move.

His motive in this instance is not curiosity, nor change of scenery, nor health, nor relaxation; for a stenographer accompanies him, so that not an hour may be lost.

He goes at the suggestion of the newspaper syndicate which handles his sermons, and all of his expenses are provided for. The syndicate feel the public pulse and urge that it is necessary to center the public interest upon the preacher in order to make his sermons the more attractive to the publishers and to the reading public. Brother Russell yields to anything which does not bridle his tongue nor compromise the Truth.

AMENDED DATES ABROAD

In order to keep an appointment at Rome, May 1, Brother Russell will arrive one day later at Vienna, Austria, May 3; Warsaw, Russia, May 4, and at Berlin, May 5. The Swiss meeting will be at Berne instead of Basle. London arrival will be at 8 o’clock Sunday morning, May 8, at Liverpool St. Station, giving another day for Barmen.

CROSS AND CROWN PINS

Some time ago we announced both gold and silver cross and crown pins. The order was only partly filled and many of our friends were obliged to wait on our later order. We believe this will be to their advantage, though we regret the delay. What we now have are very satisfactory. They are in stock and you can order at your convenience.

No. 1. Cross and Crown design in ten carat gold, three-fourths inch in diameter. The crown is burnished. The surrounding wreath is rustic and washed in green gold. The cross is of dark red enamel with only the outlines showing gold. The pin has a patent fastening. Price, $1.15.

No. 2. This is exactly the same as No. 1, except that instead of the pin it has a screw-clamp at the back, making it more desirable for men’s wear. Price, $1.15.

No. 3. Exactly the same as No. 2, except that it is one-half inch in diameter. Price, $1.

No. 4. This pin is of smooth burnished gold with a circle instead of a wreath. No enamel. Patent pin fastening. Price, $1.

No. 5. Exactly like No. 1, except that it is of silver instead of gold. Price, 35c.

These prices all include postage and are very much less than jewelers would charge, as we have them manufactured in large quantities for your convenience. None is showy.

The demand for the small one-half inch celluloid pins continues. We have a large stock now; 3c each, 25c per dozen.

“THE TORONTO WORLD”

This journal assures us that hereafter it will publish Brother Russell’s sermons every week in full—three columns in Monday edition. All WATCH TOWER subscribers can have it on the clubbing list for an additional 50 cents, or $1.50 for The World and THE TOWER—anywhere in Canada.

DO THIS INSTEAD!

Not everyone knows how to approach newspaper people to show the advantages to them of publishing “Pastor Russell’s Sermons.” All would, therefore, best desist and let the work be done by the Newspaper Syndicate now handling the service. Co-operate with the syndicate rather, and write to it or to us your views and what you would be willing to do to assist the newspaper if it should begin the publication.

“THE OVERLAND MONTHLY”

Many of our readers took the Overland magazine last year because it published a series of articles on “The Divine Program” from Brother Russell’s pen. Such will no doubt be interested to know that Brother Russell has engaged to send twelve articles this year on the topic, “God’s Chosen People.” This series began with the February issue. The magazine can be had of news dealers at 15 cents the copy, $1.50 per year. By special clubbing arrangements the year’s issues will cost our subscribers only 80 cents.
