Deer tale and Bible sales mark page story mix
A deer hunting anecdote from Willard centers on Paul Danz who chased a buck tangled in a fence then narrowly escaped. The piece shifts to Paul Marquardt pictured in a Schreiner Institute article about a new ranching course. It notes a surge in demand for the Revised Standard Edition Bible, with 3.5 million copies predicted sales by year end due to revival and strong pre publication promotion.
