BOOKS NEEDED: "I have great need for copies of the following books: "Millions Now Living Shall Never Die;" "Children," "Harp of God;" "Studies in the Scriptures" (by C. T. Russell); "Reconciliation;" "Jehovah;" "Make Sure of all Things;" "Salvation;" "Government;" "Deliverance," "New World Translation of the Christian Greek Scriptures." (All these are Jehovah's Witness publications).
Also needed are: "Doctrine and Covenants;" "Pearl of Great Price;" "Articles of Faith" (Talmage). (All Mormon publications).
I find that members of these two sects will not always accept a "quote" from their publications, unless the book can be produced containing the quotation. If any of the readers can help me obtain any or all of these books, it will help me greatly. Darwin Chandler, 611 S. Lee Street, Alvin, Texas 77511.

JOHN M. TROKEY, SR: As of the first of August, 1971, I will begin work with the church in Bay City, Texas. The church there has been meeting for about five years. They have a new and adequate meeting house which was completed about two years ago. There are approximately 25 members. The average attendance has been around 45 for the Lord's day Morning worship. The City of Bay City has a population of about 14,000. There is good potential for growth in the church and I am looking forward to working with them as they have a zeal for God and His work. The last two preachers for the church have been Dean Bullock and Lanny Parish. As of this writing I do not have all the support I need, If any church is capable of having fellowship with me in the work there I would appreciate your help. My new address will be in care of the Matthew St. church of Christ Box 1522 Bay City, Texas.
