Recently, I. was reading dnf of the Telephone
Trade Journals, and I ciime.-aci'diss "a •repfint .of an jtem-thftt
used to he given to,eachncW" telephone subscriber years tiffo.
It still is '.true und.I thought 1 would pass it on to you—
It goes--- - • ■
"This telephone will be'retired whenever nccessary without .
extra'charge,-hi?. appHei",- With normj.il use, whenever needed
to maintain good service, Just call "Repair Service." We want
all telephone's and'.associated equipment to give, you trouble-
free; pc rformarice. That's one' reason teu phoned remain ;f>vit'
perty and ai'e not soli) to customers. It's 'the service you buy,
and it's our responsibility to riiaintam that service forever...
with ho "service, call" charges." '
..This is a unique guarantee, rarefy mentioned or tholight of,
but always in fclre. It is one. of /the. features that makes your
telephone an outstanding"value in modern living.

"What's that?",he said> v • •
"A color phone. You have, ft "wide choice,tfpl. white, green™,
nine, altogether." Almost as an afterthought I added. "You can
pick your phone from •;.. .a garden of colors!'.'
" That did it. "N'ow'.you're, talking my language," said my gar-
. den-loving friend. He. chuckled- "Colors of the garden in my
"house With color phones. Think I'll get bin;. , maybe even two."
Why don'byoy do as lie did? Treat yourself to color phones.

asked how to.spell a word.* .. ••

Collector
Made Real Cleaning
NEWARK, N. J.—Wilbur Henry
gave ,up his job as a-tool setter
and began collecting clothing for
"Charity " , in 1!)52. He had a real
talent for the work and numerous
^iiarities made use of his services.
Henry got into full stride when
he started distributing leaflets on
doorsteps, asking for clothing on
hehalf of the needy and mentioning
the nances of charities which a}-,
lowed, him to use them. ,. • •
A' year after he started, H^nry
needed a truck to handle all the
'pickups. • By 1950 he* had, 12 of
them. v \ ■
"Btii the government charged
Wednesday that, the' 49-year-old
Allen town,.Pa., man apparently
believed "charity 'begins at home"
and that after four years of oloth-
ing collecting, he had $125,000 in
10 bank accounts in different
cities _, •

,In Japdn, India, and other coun-
tries, to be a Christian, is to be
thought, of as unpatriotic.
We Have Always Had Rivals
America is one of the few places
now where Christianity; Is both
popular and respectable. These
other places where it is not are
more like the situation when the
Christian faith was new. Many
American Christians have the curi-
ous idea that if the going is rough
we should not send missionaries;
that if there ire lots of religions
in a country like India, for in-
stance, we should not upset their
theological apple-cart a'nd confuse
them with a new religion. The real
New Testament Christians would
have thought such, notions rather
ridiculous. It canriot be said too
often: The Christian religion did
not get "Its | start in - a religious
Vapuum. Everybodyhad religion—
,.of some kind. Qiily, most of the
.kinds were bad, ahd the good kinds
were not good enough. Christians;
did riot propose to meVge .with bther
religions, they urgfcd men to "turn
from dead idols to the [not"a"]
Living God." The "Gospel train"
has never tied in'with any other.
y "f * ' •
A Door for the Word
Christianity, In other words, Is
exclusive. But it had amazing suc-
, cess ir> that world so crowded with
religions. And this was because
Christians like Paul never failed to
take advantage of any door for the
Word that stood open. Paul, while
a prisoner at Rome, had what most
modern preachers Would consider a
bad situation. He Was drawing no
salary, he "had no church" aa the
saying is, he could -not look for-
ward to promotion; he could not do
any organizing, his only "parish"
was a jail and jails don't offer
much in the way of a future. And
What a congregation! Criminals
and prison guards—not much hope
there Yet Paul could write to his
friends at Colossae about a "door
for the word." He did not expect a
door for himself, but he did p
for one for the Word of God,
His prayer was answered, too.
"One of the doors for th^-Word was
the conversion of a rilnaway slave
called Onesimus. Through this man
the religion of^Tcsus spread Where
Paul hi niHelf•'could notrgo. Then at
the end of Paul's letter to the Phil-
llppians,"written from a Roman
prison, he speaks of the "saints in
CaesS.r*s household,"—palace serv-
ants no doubt. Paul would never
have been invited „tp—the royal
lace; but these hy tnble Christian
mebvand women, whom Paul had
probably, con verted in prison, since
he had no Chjince to go anywhere
else—'these wonlij take the Word,
where Paul could not hope to go.
And If No Door)
There "must—have been t
When even for the Word there.waf
no door that Paul could find. So It
Is in many parts of the wqrkLta--
day. Nobody Is expecting any great
outbreak 6f "Christianity in*East
Germany or Japan or Yemen or
some places on the Amazon. When
all doors are closed, as they are
now in China, what clo we do next ?
Do we write off missions as a lost
rause? Paul did not. He wrote to
his friends at Colossae to pray
that God would open to him a doo?
Cor the Word. You do not pray for
what you already have. So now,
\yhen doors are shutting in many
lands,'we are poor Christians if we
juSt accept this as final. For Japan,
for Russia, Abyssinia-—yes for
Suburbia", that often pagjan land,
we must pray for the open door.

For us kids the trained monkey
on the .outside of the tent was the
mailt attraction,, but, for,the teen-
agers it was the handsome piano
player or the fascinating leading

the boxed candy with the coupon.
