A tract is a silent messenger from God. It is a bearer of good news concerning the great things of life and eternity.
Tracts often go where men on missions of mercy do not go. They find their way into the homes of the rich and the poor, the high and the low; they steal quietly into offices, homes, railway stations, factories, hospitals, places of pleasure and houses of shame-taking as they go God's message of love.
The lives of many men and women have been changed as the result of the reading of a tract. Thousands sick in hospitals or confined by illness to their homes have been helped by these little messengers of mercy. Scores with heavy burdens upon their hearts have felt these burdens grow lighter because of the comforting words of the silent little preachers.
The printed word is still powerful. If it be a simple word concerning life's great issues and problems, it is powerful to bless, to encourage, to inspire.
He who sends forth good tracts is truly a servant of God and humanity. The work of distributing tracts is surely a worthy work.
