Counsels to Writers and Editors
communications simple, real, and true, from our workers in all parts
of the world. God calls for this class of reading. We have no time to
devote to commonplace things, no time to waste on books which only
amuse.—
Manuscript 80, 1899

Danger of Inferior Books—Unless care is taken, the market will
be flooded with books of a cheap order, and the people will be deprived
of the light and truth which it is essential they should have to prepare
the way of the Lord. This has been done and will be done again unless
right principles control in the publishing work.—
Letter 43, 1899
