From Ocean to Ocean: Raising Funds for Christiania

By W. A. Spicer

From Ocean to Ocean

The $30,000 which we are to try to raise for Christiania by one offering, July 5, is a big sum. But we all know that this is a day for big things. Already a cheering token comes to the Mission Board office—a gift of $1,000 for this fund, from a brother and his wife in Missouri. Let us take this splendid offering as an encouragement that hearts are being enlarged to insure that this shall be the final call necessary for Christiania. Everywhere, apparently, the brethren are preparing to lift in downright earnestness. The State papers are loyally passing on the call for every one to put a shoulder to the wheel at this time.
Writing from Europe to the Minnesota Worker, Elder C. W. Flaiz says: “A closer acquaintance with the situation in this field draws upon my sympathies for our brethren here in Norway and Sweden. We trust that all our people will take hold of this matter earnestly. Will not our brethren of means come forward with the goods intrusted to them, and help in this time of need?”
Elder N. P. Nelson writes from Europe to the Nebraska Reporter: “Do not imagine that our Scandinavian brethren are being relieved of responsibility; far from it. Besides the sum the American brethren have agreed to raise, $26,000 is assumed by the brethren over here. So while the brethren on this side are taking their responsibilities, shall not we take hold of this matter earnestly?”
Elder W. T. Knox says in the Pacific Union Recorder: “Times are more prosperous, and the blessings of God have been abundant. Let each conference set its mark high. Let each church seek to do more than its share. Let each individual do all that the Spirit of God will suggest.”
Elder G. G. Rupert speaks through the Southwestern Union Record: “I hope we shall all do our duty in this time of need. We includes me. It is truly encouraging to see the determination there is to end the borrowing business.”
Elder E. T. Russell has urged the matter through the Central Union Conference papers, and State presidents join in the rallying cry. As the Atlantic Union Gleaner says: “What a glorious record it would be if the people should offer so willingly that not only this debt would be paid, but there would be a fund in reserve for work in other lands.”
From the Atlantic to the Pacific the call has sounded. Now for the glad response, Sabbath, July 5.
W. A. SPICER, Secretary Mission Board.

Happenings at the Summer Assembly

By M. Bessie De Graw

By dint of hard labor, a portion of the grove on the Emmanuel Missionary College farm at Berrien Springs, Mich., was cleared of underbrush and several years’ accumulation of leaves, and two long rows of tents were pitched for the students of the Summer Assembly. It required close planning, and a concentration of the entire force of student laborers on the Manual Arts Building, the basement of which serves as a dining room for the summer, to get this in readiness for the opening of school; but it was done, and to-day over one hundred and fifty persons are served at each meal. This includes summer-school students, and the young men who are working on the farm and buildings to meet the expense of the next school year.
It is a most interesting class of young people that one faces in the assembly. Many of those in attendance have been teachers in the public schools, and have for the first time fully surrendered to the Lord their ability to teach, with a desire henceforth to have a part in the training of that great army of missionaries for whom the world is now waiting. Others have been teaching church schools; and truly there is nothing which develops greater faith, or a more courageous spirit in young men and women than to espouse the cause of Christian education.
Work and recreation alternate in this outdoor life of the summer-school students. The daily program is as follows:—
Breakfast . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7:30 Domestic duties . . . . . . . . . . . . 8:00-9:00 Class recitation . . . . . . . . . . . . 9:30-12:30 Dinner . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:30 Manual labor . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2:30-4:30 Study period . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5:30-7:00 Chapel service . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7:30 Lectures and general exercises . . . . . 8:00-8:45 Retire . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9:30
The class work is dispensed with on Sunday, and in its place all students attend the class exercise, or round-table discussion. The topic last Sunday was Industrial Training for Church Schools. Professor Washburn, of Bethel Industrial Academy, Bethel, Wis., addressed the students three evenings, presenting to them the movement on foot by the State of Wisconsin to introduce agricultural training into the public schools, and the opportunity before the Seventh-day Adventist denomination to take the lead in this phase of education. He also related his personal experience in the school at Bethel.
There is a deep interest on the part of students to combine mental and physical training in the church school, and the subject will be continued. Elder William Covert, who has been on the grounds since the opening of the term, and who is looked upon as the father of the church-school teachers, gave a ringing testimony in favor of industrial training for children and youth.
Every day the interest increases. There is no question in the minds of those in attendance that God is leading; Christian education is life, and those called to a part in it rejoice in a light which brings life and health.
M. BESSIE DE GRAW.

Texas Conference and Camp Meeting

By W. A. McCutchen

THE twenty-fifth annual session of the Texas Seventh-day Adventist Conference will be held in connection with the camp meeting at Handley, Tex., July 24 to Aug. 3, 1902. The first meeting will convene Friday, July 25, at 9 A. M. Let it be remembered by all that according to changes made in our constitution at last year’s session, all church members in good and regular standing are now delegates to the conference, and it is hoped that our isolated brethren and sisters will attend, and that all our churches will be well represented, as matters of much importance will come up for consideration. W. A. McCUTCHEN, President.

Missing Boy Vincent Thomas Sought by Father

The Coronation Day That Will Not Be Postponed

THE preparations were all made. Untold sums had been expended on beautiful robes and flashing jewels, titled persons from many countries had assembled to witness the ceremony, and the whole empire was on the tiptoe of expectancy,—but the king of England was not crowned on coronation day. What a disappointment! How many anticipations were never realized! Another coronation day is near at hand. The preparations are being made rapidly. The invitation is now being sent throughout the world, “Come; for all things are now ready.” “There shall be delay no longer.” “There will be no postponement. The King of glory will be crowned.”
“O that, with yonder sacred throng, We at his feet may fall! We'll join the everlasting song, And crown him Lord of all.”
