    Thanks for those, FTS.

    By the way, I placed SCHOPFUNG into an online translator, German (you have that in your avatar) to English, and got nothing. What is the language? Approx. when was it published?

    It is the book I mentioned in my first post: CREATION (German edition) printed in 1928. Since it has old letters the translator may not work...

    The red lettering reads:

    CREATION
    From J. F. Rutherford
    Publishers:
    International Biblestudent Association
    Watchtower Bible- and Tract-Society

    Ah, those brought back memories. I was baptized in '56. I can faintly hear the Service Meeting talks,

    "No brothers, facial hair is not appropriate if you want to avoid stumbling new ones. Do you want folks to think you're a Beatnik? If your appearance is like a banker you're probably safe. Besides, look at the way the Faithful Slave is depicting Jesus -- no facial hair. Holy spirit is directing them to do that for a purpose."
