by

Bible
and
Tract
Society,
Inc.
It
answers
the
rousing
call
for
fearless
infor
mation,
not
because
we
have
entered
the
atomic
age,
but
because
the
world
is
fast
asleep
near
the
brink
of
that
universal
war
Scrip
turally
called
"Armageddon"
and
lovers
of
life
in
security
need
to
be
awakened
to
the
real
sense
of
the
news
and
the
pressing
issues
upon
which
to
decide.
Awake!
is
aimed
to
help
them
make
a
right
decision
that

It
is
a
Illagazine
of
32
pages

and
information
of
world
import,
gained
from
world-Wide
sources.
Its

is
of
fine
appearance.
Its
leading
articles,
without
compromise
toward
co=ercialism,
politics
and
religion,
present
the
straight
facts,
without
fear
to
publish
the
plain
truth.
Much
variety
of
interest
is
also
provided
in
shorter
articles
of
educational
and
instructive
value.
