CIANTON nPINB-REGC Ip PALM. rinig LADIES, this is your page Now and Then New and hien, and no doubt all of us could do worse than to niake the practise a more regular one, we, all turn to the Bible for the answers to our problems. This book is not one for which we search in the Public Library, but one which we keep close to us in our own homes. As Mildred Cable, for twelve years a voluntary worker for the British and Foreign Bible Society' writes, "some . read it daily and gain great benefits from the reading, some do not trouble very much about it one way or the other, and to some the large volume is merely a useful stand for the lamp, yet somehow, for the sake of the family records which it contains, you would not like to see it go." This quotation was taken from an oper,, letter written to all women in the churches, and the writer reminds us that the privi- lege of having the Bible ever at our fingertips, the privilege of living a free Christian life, the freedom to live as we please within the law, were all made possible by the teachings of Jesus Christ, Although the Bible has aireadv been translated into over one thousand languages, there are millions of persons still wait- ing to receive a copy. Miss Cable writes in her letter an appeal to each and every woman to share her enjoyment of the Bible with those who are less fortunate. In 1954 the Bible i Society is celebrating its third Jubilee, It is suggested that a personal offering towards the work of this Society would be Iappreciated, This offering would be used to cover the difference in the cost of production of Bibles from the price at which they are sold, For instance, a Chinese Bible, which costs $1,85, is sold at the. cost of $1.35 only, The same differential or greater ex- ists between the cost and Selling price of all Bibles sent overseas. Any gift should be made pay- able to the British and Foreign Bible Society and sent to Wom- en's Ti:ankoffering Fund, 122 Bloor St. W., Toronto 5.
