Personal from the Editor - Herbert W Armstrong - February 1968

Herbert W Armstrong

Personal from Herbert W Armstrong - TODAY I am writing from the island of Barbados, in the British West Indies. It is one of the farthest south, and the farthest east of the West Indies in the Caribbean Sea, and not far from the north coast of South America. It is also not very far north of the equator. On arriving at the airport here, it became quickly evident. that just about everybody in Barbados listens to The WORLD TOMORROW. Someone at the airport terminal learned my name, and soon it seemed everywhere I looked, someone was pointing me out to others. The instant I was shown to my room in the Hilton hotel, before there was opportunity to clean up or rest, a hotel official told me newspaper reporters were already outside my door, seeking an interview. Simultaneously, the telephone began to ring. The hotel telephone operator asked if I was free to receive calls - many radio listeners were clamoring to extend greetings. Someone said a local radio station had mentioned my arrival on a news broadcast. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
