Address YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR, Battle Creek, Mich.

BATTLE CREEK COLLEGE. A MODEL EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTION, COMPRISING FIVE DEPARTMENTS.

Nearly 500 Students Enrolled Annually, Coming from 32 States and Territories.

DEPARTMENTS

I. DEPARTMENT OF THE ARTS AND SCIENCES.

This includes a Classical Course of FOUR YEARS and an English Course of three years, each with its Preparatory Course of two years.

II. NORMAL DEPARTMENT.

This includes a Teachers’ Course of FOUR YEARS, and a Model School. The course in this department includes all the branches required for a first-class certificate in any State. Professional instruction in Didactics is also given to those in this department who are expecting to teach.

III. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT.

This includes instruction in the following topics: Bookkeeping, Business Correspondence, Business Forms, Business Penmanship, Commercial Law, Banking, and Telegraphy. The common branches are also pursued in connection with the topics given above; also, French and German.

There are two sessions daily—afternoon and evening.

The courses in this department are of varying length, and the tuition ranges from $5.00 to $30.00.

Superior advantages for those desiring to prepare themselves for Tract and Missionary Secretaries and Librarians. (Send for special circular.)

IV. DEPARTMENT OF THEOLOGY.

This department has a course of three years, which includes, besides the usual common branches, Geology and Greek.

V. DEPARTMENT OF HYGIENE.

This department has a course of one year. It is designed for those who desire to obtain accurate and scientific information on all subjects pertaining to the preservation of health, together with a fundamental knowledge of anatomy and physiology, and a practical acquaintance with the nature and ordinary treatment of common diseases.

THE FACULTY

numbers fourteen members. They are all men and women of experience and critical scholarship.

The majority of the students are young men and women of true moral worth. Their influence over the unstable is highly restrictive and salutary, making it comparatively easy to maintain the most rigid discipline.

EXPENSES

Probably there is no other College in the United States where a thorough education can be obtained at so small an expense. A system of clubbing, which has become very popular among students, enables them to secure excellent board at $1.10 a week, exclusive of lodging, which costs 50 cents to $1.00 more. The annual expenses of each student, including all but traveling expenses and clothing, need not exceed $113.00. A full descriptive Catalogue will be sent free, upon application.

THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

By Editor

A RELIGIOUS PROPHETIC JOURNAL.

This is the pioneer sheet of eight pages (the size of the REVIEW page), circulated everywhere by our Tract and Missionary workers, at the low price of one dollar a year to the T. and M. societies only.

The conductors of the SIGNS have laid their plans to make this pioneer sheet for 1880 a power in the land. Live writers are engaged for the work. Elder Smith will give a series of articles under the significant heading, Synopsis of Present Truth. Elder White will occupy several pages of each number with sermons on Redemption through Christ, and other subjects of like importance. And besides her regular articles on Old Testament history, Mrs. White will furnish other matter in her usual forcible style.

There will be a special edition of the SIGNS of twelve pages, for old subscribers, who are generally members of our church on the Pacific coast. This will contain the eight pages of the pioneer sheet, with four pages of church matters, reports and appointments inserted, making twelve pages, which will contain nearly three hundred square inches more than the old size of eight pages. Price, invariably, $2.00 a year.

GOOD HEALTH.

By John Harvey Kellogg

J. H. KELLOGG, M. D., EDITOR.

This popular health journal enters upon its fifteenth volume with the most flattering prospects for a continuation of the prosperity that has attended its publication in the past. It has for several years enjoyed the LARGEST CIRCULATION OF ANY HEALTH JOURNAL IN AMERICA, and its publishers are determined, not only to maintain the high position already attained, but to greatly increase its circulation the coming year, and thus enlarge its field of usefulness.

During the year each number will contain a large amount of valuable and interesting matter on the subjects of Health, Temperance, Popular Science, General Literature, and other topics of interest. The practical information in its pages on Sanitary Science, Public and Domestic Hygiene, and topics of kindred nature, gives it a scope and field of usefulness peculiar to itself, and unoccupied by any other journal.

AN ILLUSTRATED ARTICLE on practical hygiene, or some other topic of general interest, will appear in each number, as a new and permanent feature of the journal in the future. In addition to this the Department of Questions and Answers, which has contributed so much to the success of the journal in the past, will be revived in a practically useful form, and made more valuable than ever before.

SUBSCRIPTION PRICE, $1.00 A YEAR.

PREMIUMS FOR NEW SUBSCRIPTIONS.—The “Household Manual,” a work of great value as a book of ready reference, packed full of practical information, and sold at retail for 75 cents, is offered to new subscribers with GOOD HEALTH for one year, for $1.25. We regard this as the best premium offer ever made, as the book alone is well worth the subscription price of the journal, and 25 cents extra secures both.

Specimen copies of the journal will be sent free to any address on application.

Appointments for Church Meetings and Institutes

Appointments.

“And as ye go, preach, saying, The kingdom of Heaven is at hand.” Matt. 10:7.

Estella, Mich., Feb. 24-31. As this meeting will be a very important one, we hope to see a full attendance. A. O. Burrill.

Brookfield, N. Y., Feb. 25 to March 2. We expect Bro. A. H. Hall will be with us, and we want every member of the church present if possible. We shall come to work, and we want your hearty co-operation.

Lincklaen, N. Y., Feb. 17-23. We want to meet Bro. E. W. Whitney at this meeting without fail.

Genoa, N. Y., March 5-7. We want a general gathering of all the friends of the cause in this section, from Moravia, Ludlowville, etc. Bro. Ballou and Lane will please give the notice a thorough circulation. M. H. Brown.

TRACT and Missionary Institute at Osawkee, Jefferson Co., Kan., March 19 to April 5, 1880. My appointments for Salem, Big Timber, and Bethany are taken up in consequence of this. Smith Sharp.

T. AND M. INSTITUTE IN KANSAS.

By Smith Sharp

A T. and M. Institute will be held at Ozawkee, Jefferson Co., Kan., March 19 to April 5, 1880, under the supervision of Eld. B. L. Whitney, of New York. Eld. Geo. I. Butler also promises to attend at least a part of the time, and take charge of the religious interests of the meeting. We are exceedingly anxious to see a large number of T. and M. workers at this meeting. It is expected that each minister and licentiate in the Conference will be present, and devote his entire time to obtaining the instruction that will be available at this Institute. If there are societies from which the T. and M. officers cannot attend, let some other brother or sister be selected and sent, so that all parts of the State may be benefited.

Let each church take this matter in hand, and provide means so that some one can attend and receive the much-needed instruction. The advantages will be all that can be desired. Eld. Whitney is eminently qualified to give instruction in this part of the work, and the help of Eld. Butler will be appreciated.

Ozawkee is a little off the railroad, but it is the best place we can select. No charge will be made for board; but as the church there is not large, and but few of the members live in the village, it will be expected that as far as possible all will bring bedding, and come prepared to take care of themselves. We expect to meet here a number of the brothers and sisters from Missouri. I feel confident that a reduction of fare can be obtained over the Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe R. R., if enough expect to come by rail to make it an object. Let each one that expects to come over that road notify me by card to Ottawa, Kan., immediately. This road passes within five miles of Ozawkee. Trains leave Atchison about 11 A. M.; Kansas City, about 10:30 A. M.; and Topeka, about 2 P. M. Further particulars will be given soon. Smith Sharp.

PROGRESS OF THE CAUSE.

By C. P. Whitford

If the prosperity of the cause of the third angel's message can in any degree be measured by the weekly receipts for books and tracts and on the various enterprises connected with the work of spreading the truth, then we can come to no other conclusion than that the work of God will soon be accomplished in the earth. As I looked over the receipts in the REVIEW of Jan. 15, and found the amount to be $4,458.22, I was surprised, and could but feel that this indicated healthy growth, strength and prosperity. It looks as though the truth would soon find its way to peoples, nations, tongues, and kings. Shall we who have the truth keep pace with the rapidly advancing work? May the Lord help us all.

C. P. WHITFORD.

TRACT INSTITUTE AT BATTLE CREEK.

By J. Fargo; B. L. Whitney

We are exceedingly anxious for a general attendance of the officers of the Michigan Tract Society at this meeting, which we have every reason to believe will be a very important one for the interests of the cause in this State.

Michigan should be second to no Conference in the efficiency and thoroughness of her tract and missionary organization; in fact, she should take the lead in this as well as in every other branch of the work. But she cannot do this without a thorough and systematic drill on the part of those who have a leading position in the respective localities where they labor.

We greatly fear that from lack of a proper appreciation of the importance of this work we shall fail to derive the benefit that ought to be secured by this meeting; so we appeal to the officers of the society especially, not to let this opportunity pass without improving it. Every director and district secretary, as far as possible, should attend. Other States are sending persons long distances, that they may have the benefit of this drill. Why should not Michigan improve the opportunity?

Again we appeal to the officers of the society especially to come to this Institute prepared to remain through its entire session. We wish not only that every district officer, but that every librarian, too, might be present. Let all come who can.

The Lord’s work, in which we are engaged, is worthy of our best endeavors; therefore we should fit ourselves to do the work in the most acceptable and efficient manner. As heretofore announced, tuition and entertainment will be free.

DEDICATION AT LIBERTY CENTER.

By Dudley Marvin Canright

TWO-WEEKS' T. AND M. INSTITUTE.

The Lord willing, the new church at Liberty Center, Ohio, will be dedicated with a series of meetings beginning Tuesday evening, March 23, and continuing two weeks. There will be preaching each evening, also Sabbath and Sunday. Sabbath forenoon, March 27, there will be a Sabbath-school convention for all the schools in Dist. No. 5. Dedication, Sunday, March 28.

Beginning at 10 A. M. Tuesday, March 23, there will be held a T. and M. Institute for Dist. No. 5. The President and State Secretary of the Ohio Tract Society will be present, also Bro. H. M. Mitchell, a graduate of the best business college in America, who is prepared to give valuable instruction in our present mode of keeping the T. and M. records and doing the business. If desired, he will teach a class in penmanship. Many of our tract officers and ministers, as well as others, need these instructions very much. We hope to secure a teacher in vocal music, so as to make this occasion as profitable as possible.

We hope also to be favored with the presence of Bro. and Sr. White at the dedication. There ought to be a large turnout from every church in the district. Let plans be laid for it now. Get your home affairs in shape to leave for two full weeks. It will amount to little simply to remain over one Sabbath. Let there be a special effort to make this the largest and best meeting ever held in Western Ohio.

D. M. CANRIGHT.

ONCE MORE.

By M. B. Miller

By the time this paper reaches many of its readers, the T. and M. Institute to commence at Battle Creek Feb. 20, will have begun its work. Some undoubtedly had almost decided to attend, but now think it is too late. This is not so. It would be better for you to have commenced at the beginning of the Institute than at a later point; but it will be very much better for you to attend part of the time than to stay away entirely.

Time is passing. Probation is rapidly closing. Opportunities for doing missionary work present themselves without being improved, or, if improved, the work is but poorly done for want of men and women who are properly educated for the business. We do not underrate what has been done. We thank the Lord for it. But shall we not be wide awake to what is yet to be accomplished? This is the condition we should be in. Hear what the Saviour says, “Lest coming suddenly, he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you, I say unto all, Watch.” Mark 13:36, 37.

We do not expect that all the brethren and sisters can attend the Institute, but every one should have some burden about the matter. If all are interested, the result will be that somebody will attend, and it should be one or more from every church. We must not linger, and halt, and wait over these matters. Individuals should fit themselves to act as colporters. Who will do it?

TEMPERANCE GEMS.

By Roswell F. Cottrell

Our object in asking those who have always been temperate to sign the pledge, is not to make temperance men of them, but to engage them in making temperance men of others.

If you are so far addicted to the use of the mildest stimulants, such as tea and coffee, as to feel you cannot well do without them, it is high time you discontinued their use entirely; if not so far addicted to them, then make it sure, by total abstinence, that you will never get into that condition.

Those who conform to the foolish and extravagant fashions of the world to gain influence, show that they are under the influence of the vain world, and give what influence they have on the side of vanity and folly. R. F. C.

SYSTEMATIC BENEVOLENCE.

By A. Smith

AN EXPERIMENT.

Some of our people complain that they do not understand our present method of systematic benevolence, and, therefore, they do not practically indorse it.

For the benefit of such, I would suggest that a fund be created by donations, from which all such persons shall be paid, in gold and silver, a sum just equal to the value of one-tenth of their income for one month, each person to determine for himself the ratio of his dividend, and that, for the same time, no S. B. will be expected of them in return.

At the end of the first week of trial, every soul would doubtless know the exact amount he should receive.

A. Smith.
