General Comments
May 1 take this opportunity to thank you
for the opportunity to read
The
PLAtN
TRUTH. l will not pretend that aU your arti–
cles are thunderbolts of truth, but sorne of
them are interesting. 1 find many things
difficult lo believe, but again 1may be look–
ing through my pride - by that
1
mean,
what you say sometímes cootravenes what 1
had been taught previously, or is the anti–
pode of previously held thoughts or ideas.

torium. There were close to 3,000
graduales.
It
was a very colorful ceremony.
But, with so many graduales, the
Emperor handing each individually
his diploma,
il
was a very long cere–
mony. On the front platform, but to
our left and farther from the throne
was the entire Board of Regents,
and on the other side Faculty and
other dignitaries. Members of the
royal family were seated immedi–
ately
in
front of us. As the spectacu-
Personal from the Editor
1was particularly interested in your June
1973 art icle on "Discussing National and
World Problems with Heads of State" and
the pictures oo pages 38 and 39. As you can
see from ' the enclosed copies of Jetters, 1
was a close friend of Prioce and Priocess
Mikasa. They are very wonderful people.
This friendship was developed when 1 was
oo the staff of the Commaodiog General of
the First Cavarry Brigade at the beginning
of the "occupat10n" of Japan after World
War 11. Prince Mikasa's home was in our
sector south of Yokohama.
ShouJd you have any correspondence or
personal contact again with the Prince,
please extend my warmest regards to him
and the Princess.

Just a note to tcll you of my appreciation
for
The
PLAIN TRUTH magazine. The Per–
sonal from Mr. Arms trong is ofsuch interes t
1a lways read it first. The current round- thc–
world trip is of s pecial interest. 1 feel in–
formed about places and people that were
formerly just names. And never missing
is
emphasis on the spiri tual.

l.
am a teen-ager myself, and when 1 was
looking at your topics in the June issue, 1
ran across your article on sex. While read–
ing the article, 1 was interested in what the
moral code is that is necessary and why, so
would you please send me the free copy of
your book,
The Missing Dimension in S ex.
1
would appreciate it greatly, because 1
would like to acquire more information on
the subject.

!'ve just finished reading your article on
sex. 1 enjoyed it and have always woodered
exactly how
1'11
be able to deal with my
child's questions. My parents and 1 commu–
nicated well, but never about sex. Would
you please send me a copy of your book ,
lar ceremony dragged on, an official
whispered to us that it would be
quite all right if we wished to leave,
as the ceremony would carry on for
more than another hour.
We were driven directly from the
palace to the airport, where our
crew had our plane ready for board–
ing. And there, Lo personally bid us
good-bye were the Ambassador to
India and his wife.
It was, we felt, a most profitable,
as well as enjoyable four days.

The Missing Dimension in Sex.
l'm very
interested in preparing for this point in life
before it arrives.

Would you please send me a free copy of
your book,

ex.
1
would also liJce to tell you how 1 have en–
joyed your magazines. Sorne of the articles
were controversia!. Your article, "When
Teen-agers Need to Know About Sex," 1
found this very well done. The articles on
alcoholism with adolescents again was very
well done. Your article on homosexuality,
in my opinion, places too much emphasis
on sin. 1 feel the article should have had
more pros and cons.

What You Can Do
J
do wish
10
tell you exactly how much 1
enjoy
The
PLAIN TRUTH magazine. With
three small children, about the only time 1
get to read it is when the chiJdren are sleep–
ing.... "What You Can Do" 1 have found
very helpful. Your June issue was especially
welcome. 1 have a problem of rats and was
going to put sorne " De-Con" around to get
rid of them, but thanks to your article, 1 can
get rid of the rats without using poison.

The Ten Commandments
1 enjoyed all of your literature very
much. 1 thought the article about the Ten
Commandments was very good. 1 have
been a church member for about 18 years
and have always t.aken Sunday for
~ranted
for the Lord's day, but after readmg the
arlicle about the Ten Commandments, 1
have
changed my way of thinking. 1 have
been getting your literature for about half a
year, and it has changed a Iot of my think–
ing.
