MEMORIAL SUPPER—MARCH 28th

For the benefit of friends at a distance we note the fact that the anniversary of our Lord’s last Supper with His disciples will this year be on Sunday, March 28th, after 6 P.M. In due time we will have an article upon this subject.

NEW VOLUNTEER PLAN FOR 1915

The Lord willing, the Society hopes to supply a series of Volunteer issues this year instead of merely one number as in the past. Our thought is to cover the territory in quick succession, a few weeks apart, thus giving the public time to read each issue separately, but not allowing their minds to grow cold concerning the Kingdom Message. This plan will surely prove quite effective, increasing also our own privileges as Christ’s ambassadors. Ask for B.S. MONTHLY, No. 67, “Why Financiers Tremble”; No. 68, “Clergy Ordination Proved Fraudulent”; and No. 69, “Church of the Living God.”

A GIFT FOR YOUR FRIENDS

We have a special edition of STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES, Vol. I., to which we have added the Pyramid Chapter from Vol. III. It is bound in the same style as our regular editions, except the covers are embossed with a gold Pyramid.

The Pyramid feature makes this volume specially attractive to beginners who are difficult to interest otherwise. After reading about the wonderful Pyramid of Egypt (which is the introductory chapter of this edition), their mental appetite is sure to be whetted enough to read with interest the “DIVINE PLAN OF THE AGES”; and whoever reads this, if he has a spiritual appetite, is pretty sure to go on as a Bible student.

The price of this special edition is 50c. per copy, which is less than half what such books would ordinarily sell for. We, however, offer these to our readers as gifts, or for loaning to friends and neighbors, at 30c. per copy, postpaid—in any quantity, but preferably in lots of ten or multiples thereof.

BEREAN QUESTIONS IN “SCRIPTURE STUDIES”

The classes of Associated Bible Students throughout the world are very generally adopting our suggestion of using the “Berean Questions.” These are furnished separate as pamphlets—one each for the six volumes of STUDIES, also for TABERNACLE SHADOWS at 5c. each.

For the great convenience of Bible Students we have now added these “Berean Questions” as an appendix to the cloth-bound volumes. Note also that STUDIES Vol. V. now contains TABERNACLE SHADOWS and Questions on same. We are making no extra charge for this additional matter.

Some of our readers may choose to use their present copies for missionary work, replacing them with the new edition containing the “Berean Questions.”

INDIA PAPER EDITION STUDIES

Noting the growing desire for small, light weight books that can be carried conveniently in the coat pocket for reading on trains, etc., we have prepared the SCRIPTURE STUDIES in this most up-to-date form, and now have a good supply. Full leather binding, India paper, gold edges, round corners, the six volumes neatly packed in a cloth carton, thickness of the entire set only 2-3/4 inches, and weighing only 1-3/4 lbs., price $5.

We are unable, on this edition, to give our Colporteurs their usual allowances. Nevertheless, in view of the fact that this edition specially appeals to a certain class of people who want something good, we are making the Colporteurs an allowance of $1 per set to permit them to handle them.

This edition does not contain the “Berean Questions,” because designed to be as small, light and portable as possible.

—————

KARATOL STUDIES IN THE SCRIPTURES

By the word “Karatol” we indicate an edition of the STUDIES on thin Bible paper, with round corners, red burnished edges, flexible cloth covers, to take the place of the India paper edition with those who cannot afford the best, but who yet desire something convenient for carrying in the pocket for reading on journeys. These do not contain the Berean Index because they are kept in as small a size as possible. The entire set of six volumes, in cloth carton, $2, carriage pre-paid. Colporteurs may handle this edition on the same terms as the regular cloth-bound editions.
