6c for Dependability and why
A FEW months ago your dc
pendable friends, OWL and
WHITE OWL, faced a trying
situation. The cost of tobacco
leaf was going up.. Their cost-to-make
had advanced. They
had to pay Uncle Sam more
taxes.
One of two things had to hap
pen. Their price had to ad
vance or their dependability had
to be sacrificed.
Smokers had faith in OWL and
WHITE OWL dependability. It
could not be violated. So their
price went up lc. Their depend
ability was maintained. That's
why OWL is now 6c and WHITE
OWL 7c. And you can't buy

The old Anglo-Saxon words sod and
apel, from which our Anglicized term
Gospel Is a lineal descendant, signified
tn combination the a-ood news of God.
In a theological sense, and Indeod ac
cording to common usage, "The Gospel",
is thus defined: 'Good newa or tidlnRa,
especially the announcement of the sal
vation of men through the atonlns
death of Jeans Chrlat." (Standard Diet.)
It is noteworthy that the word doea
not occur in the Old Testament, which
is usually regarded as the record. In
part, of the Semitic peoples, and of
"God's dealings with them through the
medium of the Mosaic Law. The, defi
nite distinction between this Law and
the Gospel of Jesus Christ is strik
ingly illustrated by the segregation
of the Holy Bible into Old and New
Testaments. The teachings o? Christ
and later those of the Apostles empha
sized the superiority of the Gospel over
the Law, which latter was likened by
Paul to a schoolmaster whose function
was to discipline, train and Instruct, in
preparation for the greater revelation
of the Gospel. (See Gal. 3:33-29). These
and other kindred facts have led to the
erroneous assumption that the Gospel
was first revealed to mankind when
Christ came in the flesh.
Nevertheless, the Gospel, comprising
not alone precepts but the accompany
ing authority of the Holy Priesthood to
administer the ordinances thereof, was
preached to men in the earliest period
of human history. The necessity of (1)
faith in the then unembodled but cho
sen and ordained Savior of mankind,
(i) the lndispensability of repentance
as a means of leading to remission of
sins, (3) the divine requirement of bap
tism by immersion in water, and (4)
spiritual baptism through the power of
the Holy Ghost which constitute tha
fundamental principles and ordinances
of the Gospel were preached and ad
ministered to Adam, the patriarch of
the race, and by him to his posterity.
Through a revelation to Moses this Is
recorded of Adam, following the man's
transgression:
"And after but days an angel of the
Lord appeared nnto Adam, Baying" ...
Thon shalt do all that thou doeat In the
name of the Son, and thon ahalt repent
and call upon God In the name of the
Son for evermore. And in that day the
Holy Ghost fell upon Adam, which
brareth record of the Father and the
Son, aaylngrt I am the Only Begotten of
the Father from the beginning-, hence
forth and forever, that aa thon haat
fallen thon mayeat be redeemed, and all
mankind, even aa many aa vcill." (Pearl
of Great Price, Moses 5:6-9).
As wickedness increased among men
"God cursed the earth with a sore
curse, and was angry with the wicked,
with all the sons of men whom he had
made. For they would not hearken
unto his voice, nor believe on his Only
Begotten Son, even him whom he de
clared should come in the meridian
of time, who was prepared from before
the foundation of the world. And thna
the Goapel began to be preached, from
the beginning, being declared by holr
angels sent forth from the preaence of
God, and by hia own voire, and by the
gift of the Holy Ghoat." (Versos 56-58.)
The prophet Enoch testified further:
"But God hath made known unto our
fathers that all men must repent. And
he called upon our father Adam by his
own voice, saying: . . . 'If thon wilt
turn nnto me, and hearken unto my voice.
and believe, and repent of all thy trans
gressions, and be baptised, even In wa
ter, In the name of mine Only Begotten
Son, who Is full of grace and truth,
which In Jesna Christ, the only name
which Khali be given under heaven,
whereby aalvatlon ahall come onto the
children of men. ye ahall receive the
girt of the Holy Ghost. (6:50-52).
Enoch taught the same Gospel and
administered baptism to repentant be-
evers and Isoah. duly ordained, labored
in similar ministry: "And it came to
paad that Noah continued hia preach
ing nnto the people, aaylngi Hearken,
and give heed unto my words. Believe
and repent of your sins and be baptised
In the name of Jesus Chrlat, the Son of
God, even as onr fathers, and ye shall
receive the Holy Ghost, thnt ye mar
have all thlnga made manifest- and If
ye do not this, the floods t. Ill come In
upon yon nevertheleaa they hearkened
not. (8:23. 24).
So, from Adam to the Deluge, which
came because of the unbelief and apos
tasy of the race, the ordinances of tho
Gospel were known and administered.
Reverting to Biblical Scripture we read
that the Gospel was preached unto
Abraham, with the assurance that all
who would abide therein should be ac
counted as Abraham's children. (See
Gal. 3:6-18). Through the prophet Jo
seph Smith a fuller account of
Jehovah's promise to Abraham Is given
us, the Lord saying: "I will bleaa them
through thy names for aa many as re
ceive tills Gospel ahall be called after
thy name, and ahall be accounted thy .
aeed, and ahall rise np and bleas thee.
aa their father"! and the particularity
of the blessing wherein all families of
the earth might share through the line
age of Abraham was to be "the blees-
nci of the Goapel, which are tne Dieaa
nara of salvation, even of life eternal,"
(Abraham 2:10-11).
As Abraham s posterity became sin
ful, the lesser law, which when codi
fied came to be known as the Law of
Moses, was prescribed Instead of the
Gospel, which had been preached aforc-
tme and whlcn was later taugnt Dy tne
Lord Jesus Christ. Following the apos
tolic administration apostasy again
darkened the world; and now In the
current or last dispensation, tho Gospel
has been restored anew, with all its
ancient authority, power, and blessings.
The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-
Day Saints proclaims these glad tidings
to the world. This Gospel is new only
n the fact of Its restoration to earth
according to prophecy. It is the Gospel
of Jesus Christ, which was preached to
and by Adam, Enoch, Noah, Abraham
and a host of other men of God who
ministered anciently; It is the Gospel
that was taught by the Savior Himself
and by His Apostles; It Is tne eternal
Gospel brought again to earth In prep
aration for the advent of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
