The importance of this branch of the work for this field, and the necessity of its being located in this field, are set forth in the following words from Sister White:—
“In Nashville there should be established as soon as possible a printing plant, a sanitarium, and a school out of the city.
“The publishing at Nashville will have to be done in a way to meet the needs of the very people for whom you are laboring. Everything must be plain, simple, and illustrated. Inexpensive illustrations are as good for this field as the more costly work.
“Cheap, simple books must be issued, and a fund must be raised by donations so that small books may be given away where needed.
“The South is a world of its own, and publishing should be done in that field. Without proper books to put into the hands of the people, talking and preaching will lose their hold on the mind. But if proper reading-matter can be placed in their hands, so that they can read the truth and see the pictures accompanying the reading-matter, it will stay in the mind and have convincing power. Then other and larger books should be issued to meet the needs of the better-educated classes.
“Our people should take hold to raise a fund to establish and equip the office at Nashville, just as they did for the office at Oakland, Cal., and as they have done for so many of our other institutions in the North.”
The Industrial School
The testimonies are full of instruction regarding the education of the colored people of the South. Recently we were definitely told that an industrial school for this people must be started in the country, within reach of Nashville.
This contemplates the purchase of a tract of several hundred acres. A favorable locality can be secured where land can be purchased at a low price. Then small, neat buildings can be erected as the needs of the work demand. Different industrial lines of work must be introduced to accompany the study of books.
The committee is ready to undertake this work as soon as we hear from you in response to this appeal. The Southern Publishing Association will be trustee for this fund.
The Nashville Sanitarium
The importance of the introduction of the truth through the influence of the health work as represented by sanitariums is stated by Sister White as follows: “Very little can be done in the cities of the South until sanitariums are established there. Let this work be commenced at once. A beginning has been made at Nashville. A sanitarium must be established there.”
A building for a sanitarium for the colored has been hired. An offer has been made to purchase this building. Will you aid in purchasing and equipping this institution? If so, fill out the following coupon and send with your contribution to the secretary of the Southern Publishing Association, who will hold the funds for the use of the sanitarium, which is also being incorporated.
Just as this circular is going to press, a letter from Sister White states that in response to her appeal at the recent meeting at College View, Nebr., a fund of $900 in cash and pledges was raised to aid in carrying forward the enterprises mentioned in these circulars.
THE CHRISTIANIA PUBLISHING HOUSE AND THE DECISION MADE REGARDING IT BY THE GENERAL CONFERENCE
By L. JOHNSON
Since October, 1899, when the sad news reached us that our publishing house at Christiania had suspended payments, and that a large amount of money was required to settle with its creditors, it has been a trying time for all the Scandinavian brethren who had the cause of God at heart. Not only was it painful for our brethren in the old country, but we in this country suffered as well. When Elder O. A. Olsen asked for fifty thousand dollars, our hearts sank within us, and, like Jehoshaphat, the king of Judah, we “feared,” and set our hearts to seek God. 2 Chronicles 20. The king also expressed our sentiments when he said: “Neither know we what to do; but our eyes are upon thee.” Our creditors themselves were almost the only ones who spoke encouraging words to us. These business men (nearly all presidents of banks) treated us very kindly. As Elder Olsen expressed it, “They talked to us as fathers to their children.”
While the sad reports kept coming, and the darkness kept on increasing, we still hoped in the Lord. The language of our hearts was, “Lord, thou art mighty to save! Nothing is impossible with thee. Spare thy people, O Lord, and give not thine heritage to reproach.” While we waited on the Lord, His word was precious to us: “Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord.” Ps. 27: 14. “I waited patiently for the Lord; and He inclined unto me, and heard my cry.” Ps. 40: 1. While during the financial depression hundreds of business houses and banks went into bankruptcy, and while religious institutions were spoken of in the daily papers in a way that brought reproach to their owners, yet not a line appeared concerning our house.
The time came when the Lord spoke, and His words were good. They melted our hearts, and brought tears of gratitude from our eyes. “How sweet are thy words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth.” Ps. 119: 103. “Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?” Micah 2: 7. When, according to the message sent us from God, our propositions of payment in full were presented to our lawyer, he said, “This is unheard of in history.” And others said, “That is just what we expected the Adventists would do, because they are Christians;” and when one of our creditors who had a mortgage on the property, and therefore felt sure of getting what was coming to him anyway, refused to wait the length of time that the propositions called for, our advocate himself had such faith in our offer that he personally secured forty thousand kroner, or about eleven thousand dollars.
The offer which has been accepted was to pay the whole amount in seven semiannual payments of eleven thousand dollars each. The first of these payments has been made, and the next becomes due the first of July, this year. In order to meet this, the following recommendation was passed by the General Conference recently held at Battle Creek, Mich.:—
We recommend that June 1 [since changed to July 6] be a day of prayer for our work in Scandinavia, and that a special donation be taken on that day for our Christiania publishing house.—General Conference Bulletin, page 414.
Now if all our brethren and sisters in this country, about sixty-five thousand in number, would take hold of this matter as the Lord would be pleased to have them, they could raise not only the eleven thousand dollars which must be sent by the fifteenth of June, but the whole sum, as it would only average about one dollar for each; and while many could not give that much, others might give much more.
It has been stated by many that the last General Conference was a missionary conference, and every one present can doubtless testify to the truthfulness thereof; and now let us all show by our works that the Spirit of Christ has come into our hearts, and that His love rules us. We have disappointed our Heavenly Father many times, but let us do so no more.
“Our publishing house in Norway is in peril, and in the name of the Lord I appeal to our people in its behalf. All to whose hearts the cause of present truth is dear are called upon to help at this crisis.
“Those who love and serve God should feel the deepest interest in all that concerns the glory of His name. Who could see an institution where the truth has been magnified, where the Lord has so often revealed His presence, where instruction has been given by the messengers of God, where the truth has been sent forth in publications that have accomplished great good,—who could bear to see such an institution pass into the hands of worldlings, to be used for common, worldly purposes? God would certainly be dishonored if this institution were allowed to fall into decay for want of the money He has intrusted to His stewards. Should this take place, men would say that it was because the Lord was not able to prevent it.
“These things mean much to our brethren and sisters in Scandinavia. They will be sorely tried if their facilities are cut off. Let us make an effort to prevent them from falling into depression and discouragement. Let there be a consecrated, united effort to lift the publishing house out of the difficulty into which it has fallen.”
“All heaven takes an interest, not only in the lands that are nigh and that need our help, but in the lands that are afar off. The heavenly beings are watching and waiting for human agencies to be deeply moved by the needs of their fellow workmen who are in perplexity and trial, in sorrow and distress. . . .
“Every facility we have in Europe for the advancement of the work is needed; every institution should stand in a healthy, flourishing condition before an ungodly world. Let not the angels of God who are ministering to those that bear responsibilities see God’s workers disheartened. Already the difficulties have increased by our delay, so that the work of restoration will now require greater labor and expense. In the name of the Lord we ask His people who have means to prove themselves faithful stewards. Repair the machinery so essential to carry forward the work of God that His people shall not become discouraged, and His work be left to languish. . . .
“The cause of God in Europe is not to become a stone of stumbling or a rock of offense to unbelievers. The institutions there are not to be closed, or given into the hands of worldlings. Let the Lord’s servants in Europe make every effort in their power to recover what has been lost, and the Lord will work with them. And I call upon our people in America to co-operate with their brethren in Europe. If all will act their part in His great plan, God’s purpose will be accomplished. The difficulty will soon be in the past, no more to harass the cause of God.”—Testimony for the Church, Vol. VI, pages 454, 455, 459-461.
Amen! Let all the people say Amen! When the sum mentioned is paid, the property will be owned, free of debt, by the people of God, and by His blessing it may bring more money than it has cost, if it is thought best to sell it, as it is in the heart of the city—the capital of Norway. Remember the day, Sabbath, July 6. L. JOHNSON.
HOW TO SPEND THE SUMMER
ARE you a teacher or a high school graduate desiring to teach? If so the thought has been suggested as to the best manner in which to spend the vacation weeks. Teachers are, as a class, ambitious and anxious to keep abreast of the times. Those teachers who know the truth of the message for to-day are doubly in earnest about their work, for the souls of children are in their keeping. The Christian teacher should have the truths of nature and of the Bible so woven into his being that they are his very life. A new impetus has been given to the educational work of the denomination by the action of the late General Conference. Among the recommendations offered by the Educational Committee appointed by the Conference are the following:—
“We urge upon our people the importance of establishing church schools.”
“We recommend our Conference laborers not to consider their work for churches complete until church schools are organized wherever consistent.”
“We recommend that our brethren everywhere study diligently the principles of Christian education, and step out by faith as new light shall be given, and put the principles learned into practical use.”
“We call upon Seventh-day Adventist teachers who have been successful in secular schools, to consecrate their talents and experience to the cause of the Third Angel's Message, to study the principles given this people upon the subject of Christian education, and to hold themselves in readiness to fill places in our school work as the providence of God opens the way.”
This last recommendation is an appeal to you. There are about two thousand churches in the United States which should give heed to the first recommendations quoted. There are now not more than one tenth the number of teachers needed to open the required number of schools in our own country, aside from those needed in foreign lands.
Christian schools can not be conducted according to the methods of the secular schools, therefore even the successful teachers of the public schools need a training in the methods of Christian education. Such training will give you new life and vigor; it will electrify you; for Christian education is life, it is soul life. All the truth you have learned in the past will be of use to you, but God desires you to know how to use that knowledge to glorify Him, and to prepare subjects for His kingdom.
Teachers are born, not made; and if you have been given the talent of teaching, consider carefully the advisability of using that talent now, lest it be lost.
The summer school, beginning July 2, and conducted by Battle Creek College, is for the training of teachers. It will give you a term of practical work in the principles and methods of Christian school work. Read again the article in the REVIEW of May 7. Send for further information. Advise your friends who are of proper age and have acquired an education to become teachers, to investigate this subject. Send their names, and literature will be mailed to them. A number of young men are needed to become strong workers in industrial schools. A personal interest in these matters will be appreciated, and will receive prompt attention. Address E. A. Sutherland.
A SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY
Read and see if this does not mean you! Are you aware that the Sanitarium Medical Missionary Training School has a correspondence department connected with it, and weekly sends out lessons to those whose duties keep them at home? This is the third year this course has been carried on, and scores are availing themselves of it. Studies on eleven subjects are given, missionary work and the care and treatment of the sick being prominent.
The tuition fee is three dollars, which barely covers the cost of sending out the lessons, and correcting and returning the copies sent in by the students. The books required for this work are furnished at actual cost-price. We shall organize a new class in July, which will continue one year, and shall be glad to hear from all those interested. A descriptive circular giving full particulars, also testimonials from those who are taking the course, will be sent free on application.

Easy Steps in the Bible Story
By Adelaide Bee Cooper
By Adelaide Bee Cooper, Editor Youth’s Instructor, Introduction by Elder Stephen N. Haskell.
It is the only book we have that gives a connected account of the early Bible Stories from creation to the giving of the law on Sinai.
The early Bible Stories never lose their beauty, freshness, and charm. They bring new inspiration to those advanced in years, and are read with pleasure and eager delight by youth and children. The principles revealed in the lives of the early Bible characters will, if instilled into the minds of the young, make an indelible impression for good that neither time nor later associations can erase.
Mothers, read them to your children !
In this book the author retains the beauty, simplicity, and sweet expression of the Bible narrative, and gives a clear, vivid description of the six days of creation, and a complete record of all subsequent events found in the Scriptures to the giving of the law on Mount Sinai.
Children, you should read “Easy Steps,” and you can do the very best kind of missionary work by loaning and selling this book to your playmates and friends.
The illustrations in this volume are practical. They have been prepared with the special purpose of aiding the children in gaining a correct and intelligent idea of the Bible story—not simply to please the eye.
What Our Ministers Say of “Easy Steps in the Bible Story.”
The morning, my copy of “Easy Steps” came, beginning with the title page, I read every line in the book before laying it down. I found it to be just what its name implies,—“Easy Steps in the Bible Story.” My little boy, not quite five years old, can not read a word, yet he can give a connected account of almost the whole story by the simple, expressive illustrations. I hope thousands of children will be provided with this book, and will get the instruction and pleasure from it that our little boy has.
ELDER A. G. DANIELLS.President General Conference.
That best of all Bible books for children—“Easy Steps in the Bible Story”—gains the unqualified approval of the children themselves. They are glad to read it more than once.
ELDER A. T. JONES.
God would have the story of the creation; of the flood; of his servants, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob; of Joseph and Moses; and the deliverance of the children of Israel—of his wonderful dealings with mankind—repeated in the language of the people. This is what “Easy Steps” does. It gives the story of what God says, and what he has done in his dealings with the children of men.
ELDER STEPHEN N. HASKELL.
My copy of “Easy Steps” at hand. My wife read it to our little girl, three and one-half years old, and she is completely carried away with it. I brought home some other books of a like description, and my wife and little girl think “Easy Steps” the most interesting of all. It is a veritable jewel in text, and gem in art.
ELDER E. S. WIGHT.
The book contains 160 pages, table of contents, and list of illustrations. Our artist has prepared 150 beautiful pen-drawings, illustrating the text of the book. It also contains many full-page illustrations. Beautiful cover design. Two styles of binding.
PRICE IN CLOTH, 50 CENTS.PRICE IN PAPER, 25 CENTS.
The price brings the book within the reach of all. The children can act as agents for this book. For territory, address—

Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns
By Prof. E. A. Sutherland
An Educational Problem for Protestants
BY
PROF. E. A. SUTHERLAND
Is a work on education, which has a field entirely of its own.
One of the greatest problems that confronts Seventh-day Adventists is the correct education of the children and youth. “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns” shows the dangers of following the old, or pagan, system of education; and also the necessity of adopting a system of education which will lead the children to Christ. It contains not only theory, but gives valuable and practical aid in accomplishing this much-desired end.
Best Presentation of Educational Reform.
REVIEW AND HERALD: I have recently had an opportunity to look carefully through the new volume by Professor Sutherland, “Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns.” It is an excellent work, and the best presentation of educational reform in the truest sense, which I have seen. I wish it might be in every family. It should be carefully studied as a text-book by parents, and by all who have to do with children. Yours very truly,
J. H. KELLOGG.
“Living Fountains or Broken Cisterns” contains 380 pages, printed from new type, substantially bound in cloth.

THE QUESTION CHAIR
By Editor
We seek to come in contact again with the readers of the Review through the medium of the Question Chair, a department in which the readers and the editors may more familiarly confer together on questions of Scripture which are of mutual interest. There has seemed to be no lack of questions in the past for this department, and from responses received concerning it, we have reason to believe that it has been thought profitable. Queries often arise on a passage concerning which a suggestion, or the statement of a fact, may be of great help to the understanding of the scripture in question.
We trust those seeking the aid of this department will do it with a sincere and honest desire for profit to their own souls, not for the purpose of seeing how much they can puzzle the one who attempts to answer, nor to see if they cannot bring different authorities into conflict. To all honest attempts to seek for help and benefit, it will be the pleasure of the editorial staff to render what assistance we are able; and we feel assured that, if entered into with the right spirit and the right motive, the department can be made one of real interest and profit. The readers of the Review are requested to grant an interest in their prayers to all writers for the columns of the paper in any department, that all that is said may contribute to the spiritual edification and comfort of the reader.
SEVEN THOUSAND DOLLARS
By Editor
has been received for the Relief of the Schools fund since the coupon was first printed in the REVIEW. It is with deep and heartfelt joy that we acknowledge these kind gifts from our brethren and sisters of the faith. God in His goodness has inclined His ear to hearken to the frail human voices which have pleaded for the relief of our schools. Angels of God have touched and tendered human hearts, and men and women through the heaven-born ministration of giving have become the earthly agents of the heavenly angels, assisting them in their work.
Slowly but surely these great debts are being wiped out. The tide of debt, which for so long kept swelling, is being turned. The fight is a fierce one. It is yet far from won, but progress is being made. Amen and amen.
As yet only about one fourth of the REVIEW readers have responded, and so we print the coupon again with the prayer that some who read may be endued with the gift of giving.
Get post-office money order or bank draft; fill out the coupon; cut it out; then inclose the money and the coupon in an envelope, and send it all to P. T. Magan, Battle Creek, Mich. Act now, for this coupon notice will not appear again.

Editorial Notes
By Editor
We ask the indulgence of contributors this week for the non-appearance of some of their matter. A portion of "Special Notices" and the last page has been crowded over. We are sorry for this, but it cannot always be prevented. As the last form of the paper is closed up Sunday noon, notices, to be sure of insertion, should be received not later than the preceding Thursday.
Services Resume at Battle Creek Tabernacle
THE presence of smallpox in Battle Creek, last month, caused the board of health to deem it advisable to close the Tabernacle to public services, for two weeks. No meetings were therefore held May 4 and 11. Services were resumed last Sabbath, May 18. Elder W. W. Prescott spoke in the forenoon on the Cross of Christ, its all-pervading influence and wondrous power. At 3 P. M. Elder G. A. Irwin spoke on God's individual notice of His people, and the plan He has for each one in life, which only the individual himself can hinder. Lot hindered the plan of God in his case; Ruth and Elisha helped it along in their cases. Shall we be co-workers with God, or hinder Him? We should be happy to speak more at length concerning both these excellent discourses. But as they were both reported, it may be possible, a little later, to lay them in full before the readers of the REVIEW.
THIS WEEK'S SUPPLEMENT TO REVIEW
By Editor
Such was the pressure upon our columns this week that we have tried to relieve the situation a little by issuing a Supplement, to take in some of the more pressing matter. Notwithstanding this, we still have matter enough on hand to fill another Supplement just as large. But we think it can be worked in, in season not to materially inconvenience any one.
THERE ARE FOUR TUESDAYS

If your subscription to the REVIEW expires in June, 1901, you will find a renewal blank inclosed in this REVIEW. While renewing your own subscription, will you not also send us a two-months’ subscription for that friend of yours?
REVIEW AND HERALD.
Politics and Patriotism in the Religious Press
The religious press of the land actually devotes more space and attention to politics and patriotism than to the religion of Jesus Christ. For instance, the leading Episcopal weekly of the country devotes nearly one page of editorials in a recent issue, to the giving of advice to the government about its international relations, and to the planning of a method of defense against the possible inroads of European nations.
MOVING OUT
SINCE last week’s paper went to press, Elder A. T. Jones has left for the West, to attend the Pacific Coast camp-meetings.
For the European field there sailed from New York last Wednesday, May 15, Elder and Mrs. O. A. Olsen, Miss Evelyn Nelson, Dr. E. J. Waggoner, Dr. J. C. Ottosen, Dr. P. A. De Forest, the Misses Jessie Ryland, Sarah Parker, Katharine Bradley, Hattie Sargent, Johanne Jensen; and for India, L. J. Burgess.
Also the following will sail this week, for the West Indies: Elder A. J. Haysmer, Elder and Mrs. L. A. Spring, Elder and Mrs. W. G. Kneeland, Elder and Mrs. W. A. Sweeney, Elder and Mrs. F. I. Richardson, Brother E. V. Orrell and wife, and Mrs. M. H. Honeywell; and for Central America, Brother H. A. Owen and wife.
And ere this paper reaches its subscribers, Elder and Mrs. G. A. Irwin, and their son, Prof. C. W. Irwin and wife, will be on their way to Australia. The reader doubtless noticed from last week’s REVIEW that Sister E. G. White and company had departed for California.
An Appeal for the Southern Work
By Editor
An Appeal in behalf of the Southern work has just been sent out from the office in Nashville, which we wish might go to every Sabbath-keeper in the land. Every reader of the REVIEW will receive a copy of this appeal, and we trust that not one will put it aside as unworthy of immediate and earnest attention. Read it, brethren, pray over it, and then respond as the Lord shall lead.
