Jehovah's Witnesses, when did the Watchtower decided to remove the Cross from your publishings?

From the October 1, 1907 cover (Notice the Cross in the upper left hand corner)

If the JW's have God's truth why do they constantly change that truth? When did the change Jesus being Crucified on a Cross to a "Torture Stake"?

Did Jesus not say:

(NWT) Matthew 4:4 But in reply he said: “It is written, ‘Man must live, not on bread alone, but on every utterance coming forth through Jehovah’s mouth.’”

(NWT) Matthew 24:35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will by no means pass away.

If the Watchtower has the "Truth" then the "Truth" should need to be changed constantly, should it?
Edit.... "Shouldnt" Need to be changed.

For years Bible Students ( as Jehovah's Witnesses were then known) wore a cross and crown as a badge identification, and this symbol was on the front cover of the "Watchtower" from 1891 to 1931. But in 1928 it was emphasized that not a decorative symbol but one's activity as a witness showed he was a Christian. In 1936 it was pointed out that the evidence indicates that Christ died on a stake, not a two-beamed cross. Jehovah's Witnesses also celebrated Christmas until 1926. They gradually came to appreciate that neither the origin of this holiday nor the practices associated with it honored God. In their book "Daily Manna" (a precursor to the currently used book, "Examining the Scriptures Daily"), a list of birthdays was kept. But after they quit celebrating Christmas and when they realized that birthday celebrations were giving undue honor to creations (one reason that early Christians never celebrated birthdays), they quit this practice too.

Jehovah's Witnesses have never denied making errors in timing and expectations as the very Apostles of Jesus did. However, the truth of their teachings has remained firm and true.
They still teach that God has provided a means of salvation for mankind through Christ Jesus his son, a kingdom that will never be brought to ruin, but will replace all current rulership on earth. (Dan 2:44) The Earth will be restored to the paradise-like conditions that it once was before Adam and Eve sinned. These and other teachings have not changed. It is funny how the very articles that people get their information with which to attack Jehovah's Witnesses contain the very answers that people are looking for. But the misquoted, misconstrued bits and pieces they present hides the facts and leads people to believe their lies. If you want the truth, I'd be happy to show you.
