With
the prospects of bro. Turner returning from Australia next week,
I am preparing to vacate this over-sized editor's chair and
would like to thank all of our readers for bearing with us in
getting out these past three issues. I would like also to thank
bro. Dee Bowman and Jim Ward for their fine articles. Both are
good writers and good preachers.
-------------------
Now,
there are several matters I'd like to mention before going back
to page 3 permanently. First, with most repairs completed
following our fire, we are back in our regular meeting place
after being out for 12 Sundays. It never looked better and we've
never been more thankful.
-------------------
Next,
in the Oct issue we asked for a response from any who would be
in favor of reprinting and binding back issues of PT (about 13
yrs. of it), not as a solicitation, but as an indicator of
interest. Frankly, and to my personal disappointment, the
response was only fair — certainly, not convincingly
sufficient. I still feel bro. Turner's writings deserve
circulating and preserving. If you agree, help me convince him!
Drop us a line.

As
you may have noticed, we have switched to a new addressing
system, which, hopefully, will be better for you and for us.
Regrettably, however, the company that sold us the equipment
made a few mistakes in preparing our new address cards. If the
address appearing on your copy of PT needs correcting, please
let us know. If you know of others who did not receive their
copy, tell them to notify us as soon as possible. Thanks.
Also,
if you plan to move, please remember to do these two
things: Let us know where you are moving TO and let us know the
address you are moving FROM. BOTH are important to us because
our address cards are filed according to ZIP codes, not names.
Besides, we have to pay 25¢ for each returned copy.
One
other thing. We appreciate all new readers, but, alas, not all
of them appreciate us, as this recent note indicates: "Please,
please, STOP sending us "Plain Talk"!! We have
moved and must pay 10¢ postage due to cover forwarding charges
every time we receive your newsletter. What a nuisance!! We
never requested your publication in the first place. I consider
your paper so much "junk mail". God bless you. In
another note, a mother requests that her 10 yr. old son's name
be removed from our mailing list, adding, "how you ever got
his name is beyond me". So, make sure it's OK with them, then
send us their name. Dan Shipley
