Even they are having a hard time filling 32 pages. That's why you have articles about edible insects in Africa.
How happifying!

IMHO, even when I left 10 years ago, most did not read the mags. My elderly mom did, and there is a percentage that will, but not most. Some will be thrilled (my mom...me rolls eyes...I watch PBS) with the information regarding the edible insects, but most won't even know it there.
In the end I thought using a tract was the best thing ever in D2D work. People were exasperated when they opened the door, and just taking a simple tract with a simple theme was little investment to them and they were relieved. I had a better time in service using those. I thought if they did one four page tract a month, it could get their message across, the pub wouldn't be jumping around trying to figure out what to talk about every other week, and of course, less cost and waste.
But then I remember. It's a publishing corporation. It needs to print. Although, it now is becoming a building/remodeling contractor/loan shark corporation.

It can't be on the way out if the 2 mags are the two prophets or witnesses in revelation . They believe they fullfill prophesy and no government can shut down the printing presses again. Not to have the mags at the door now would mean you are a mormon . Nobody could tell the difference . I did think of the using the web to host the mags , that way you could just present a buisness card with the web address but no, what are they to do with that time slot on thurs. night of shaking down the pubs for money ?

Watchtower, Bible, & TRACT society.
Finally, living up to their name. Their REAL name.

But that would eventually make them the "BTS"............... no more Watchtower.
Soon, more forests and trees will live in peace.
