Invest in a Preacher Today
Returns Guaranteed
HE is seventy-five; his wife seventy-three. Picture them; bent, gray,
worn with ceaseless work, but with the tender-glad smile. Me
-'writes: "We send you five dollars we have been saving for a book I
' value highly." v
You are a practical business man ; so are we practical business men.
.And we tell you that old preacher, and his wife, make the finest, genuine,
tdollars-and-cents investment ever offered you.
Invest in a preacher, or a dozen of them, and the feeling of lasting
pleasure you receive will fit you to meet the biggest business problems.
This is not "talk"; it's plain, hard fact. What greater asset can you
ask for than that wonderful old sensation, "I feel ready to tackle any-
thing!"
You have bought war bonds, and are going to buy more. You
have paid a heavy income tax and now you are going to invest in an
old gentleman with an empty purse.
That old preacher you knew as a boy, the old fellow your father and
mother thought so much of, needs your help today. You owe him for
"' " ' v that early training that has been such a strong factor in your success.
f1;'
';r.
ty
Why, man dear, there are thousands oi preachers working day and
night to make your city and your employes better, who are getting less
tharj a thousand dollars a year. Your business would be in a fine way,
wouldn't it, if jt were not for the stabilizing influence of the church and
its pVeachers, who put ambition and determination and love of honest
service in the hearts of your workmen.
ow then, no business-like delays, write today and get the facts
abotmthis great investment from business men. Think of the good
workiVs who will receive no pay envelope today or tomorrow unless
