“Go Ye Also Into The Vineyard”

“He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit.” John 4:36.

All interested in the subjects of this volume, and who consider its presentations to be “meat in due season,” will feel more or less constrained to become servants of the truth, and to bear the “things new and old” to yet others of the “Household of Faith.” Your measure of zeal for such service will of course measure your activities in its service, and determine how much of time, influence, means, etc., you will devote to its spread. We are glad to cooperate with all, that those who love much may do much, and that those who love some may do something, in the name of the great Shepherd and in the interest of His sheep.

To this end we wish you to know that special provision has been made whereby you may be a co-laborer in this work, regardless of whether you have financial means to invest or not. We have quite a variety of excellent tracts, which we supply free and in large quantities for judicious circulation. We also publish twice a month a 16 page journal, The Watch Tower, and desire that our list should bear your name, if you are interested. If interested in this volume you will undoubtedly be interested in the journal, which treats similar themes, and we are prepared to supply you with it upon your own terms—you may have it on credit if it is not convenient to pay for it in advance, and if never able to pay for it we will, upon application, cancel the indebtedness. If you have no prospect of being able to pay for it you will be welcome to it free as one of the “Lord's poor,” on application, and upon renewal of the same yearly. If you can afford to pay, the price is $1 (4s.) a year.

We have various helps for Bible study, which we supply to all who are on our Watch Tower list at extremely low prices—these include various translations of the Bible, Concordances, etc., and especially the Scripture Studies—“The Bible Keys.”

Colporteuring And Loaning The “Studies.”

Some have numbers of friends to whom they take pleasure in supplying the Studies gratis; others keep a quantity at hand which they constantly loan out amongst their friends, after the manner of a circulating library; and still others enter the Colporteur work, as being one of the most favorable opportunities to them for serving the truth to others, traveling from town to town introducing the “Bible Keys,” soliciting orders and delivering the books. Our Society does all in its power to facilitate these various methods of circulating the truth, encouraging each to serve the cause to the extent of his zeal and ability, according to his own preference; assisting in the matter very materially by supplying the books at remarkably low prices. See page 2 of The Watch Tower for wholesale rates to subscribers, and if the Colporteur work appeals to you, write for “Hints to Colporteurs.”

We shall be glad to hear from you, and to coöperate with you, and we assure you that you will find a blessing in every sacrifice you may make on behalf of the truth. Very truly, Your fellow-servants,

Watch Tower Bible and Tract Society,
