The purpose of this book is to present to the youth of the Seventh-day Adventist denomination, and any others who may care to read it, a friendly discussion of the great Sabbath truth. It is here dealt with in a conversational, heart-to-heart manner, discussing various arguments advanced on both sides, but confining the evidence to the ten commandments and the New Testament.

Interspersed with the talks on the Sabbath, the reader will find stories from other phases of life not directly connected with the doctrinal discussion, but designed to hold the interest of the children and young people, who, like myself, may be lovers of animals. Every detail is drawn from the actual experiences of the different members of the group who had met together on the occasion written about.

No effort is made to cover the whole Sabbath field, but is intended to answer the oft-repeated charge that there is not in the New Testament a direct command or any instruction to keep the seventh-day Sabbath.

The setting will be found in the beautiful mountains of the South's wonderland--way up in the Land of the Sky, in charming western North Carolina, whither many people resort from all over the nation, seeking rest and health.

In the account itself all names have been changed, and such other minor alterations made as appeared necessary to hide the identity of the principals.

It is hoped that the work will be the means under God of bringing some wavering soul to a right decision, of strengthening the faith of the youth who go with us through the discussion, and of stimulating a desire to study more deeply into the depth of evidence for Sabbath observance.
