Show "But when he saw the multiudes [sic], he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd."-Matt. 9:36. <br><br> SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND SOULS <br> ASK A LITTLE CHANCE! <br> THEY are souls for whom Christ died, as much as for us. They have all our religious needs, and besides them they are handicapped by special ones in intrained [sic] terrible errors and wrong practices, "proved" to them by gross twistings of the Bible. Think of 2,300 square miles of territory visited by us in 15 weeks, with 23,000 people of this kind, yet having only four* small Christian services, and the people trained against these from infancy! The simple fact is that <br><br> They Have No Fair Chance! <br> Mostly they were brought up in the terrible Mormon beliefs of many gods with flesh-and-bones bodies like ours, and Christ the son of Adam-god and Eve and Mary (see quotation-tract No. 1 of our List). Such teachings rob souls of their highest incentives and aspirations and leave them helpless facing eternity, how often unsaved! How can they be reached with the greatest truths of life and salvation, and how can they be kept from further endangering our most precious inheritances? Armor-plated against churches and ministry, they can be reached <br><br> ONLY BY A TRAVELING GOSPEL WORK, <br> which shall go to them, since they will not or cannot come to us. "Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in;" earnestly, lovingly and ably leading them to the Christ in experimental knowledge- <br> (OVER) <br> [To the right of the text is an image of eleven men and three wagons.
