Dear Co-Worker with Christ:
I want to rush this letter to you today, airmail. I want
to reach you with it before you receive your copy of the May PLAIN
TRUTH, being mailed today.
I have just seen the first copy off the press, of this May
number, and I know that unless I can reach our readers first with
this letter, many are going to cut out page 25. This is a full
page beautiful color picture of a portrait of my dear wife, who
died April 15th.
I was really SURPRISED, pleased and gratified. when I saw
this beautiful full page picture. I think you will be, too. It
is, truly, one of the finest examples of full color printing I have
ever seen. It was photographed from a painting over the fireplace
in my office here in Pasadena. This large portrait was painted by
England's leading portrait artist, Mr. S. Morse-Brown, in our home
on the Ambassador College campus in England, in 1961.
The reproduction in The PLAIN TRUTH shows the entire
portrait, frame and all. It occurred to me immediately that many
of our readers will be cutting out this page, perhaps to frame
it--or whatever treatment might be given to it. And this triggered
the impulse--WHY NOT OFFER YOU A SPECIALLY-PRINTED COPY, ON EVEN
FINER PAPER, so that no one need cut this page out of The PLAIN
TRUTH?
So I called the heads of our printing plant by telephone.
And I am glad to announce that, if you would care for it, I will be
happy to send you such a specially printed picture. It will be
printed on a finer, and a heavier paper, and on a different press
by a process which we believe will bring it out even more
beautifully than this page in The PLAIN TRUTH.
And I'm sure you realize there is never any charge for
anything we offer. I want this to be just a personal expression of
gratitude, from me, for your fervent prayers for God's Work and
your loyal support, and in honor of the dearest woman I have ever
known--and the God-chosen First Lady of this great End-Time WORK OF
GOD.
I have naturally devoted my Personal from the Editor talk
