Daily Manna

JUDGING by reports and letters received from various parts of the field, the influence of the recent General Conference was widely diffused. Truly God gave to his people a great blessing, but even though this generous blessing was bestowed, it cannot suffice for future or even present needs. We must have a continual infilling of the Holy Spirit. We must obtain daily fresh blessings from the heavenly storehouse. All this is possible, for we serve a living God,—a God of unlimited power, wisdom, and love.
God's gifts of yesterday, if rightly used, serve only to enlarge our hearts to receive still greater blessings today. “The path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” Let us seek to grow in grace as we grow in knowledge of the truth of God. Thus receiving and thus growing, we shall be able continually to pass on to others fresh blessings, and living, vitalizing, inspiring truth. As Israel of old received daily fresh manna from heaven, so let us seek continually, wherever we are, for a new, daily, living experience in God. He will not turn us away, nor disappoint our hopes.

C. C. Crisler Visits Florida

Brother C. C. Crisler, who has been in Washington since the close of the General Conference, went to Florida last week to visit his father.

W. C. White Returns to California

AFTER spending the time since the last General Conference in the East looking after the interests of the publishing work, Elder W. C. White left Washington last week for California, visiting Florida and various points in the South on his way.

Thurbers Begin Work in Mexico

BROTHER and Sister E. W. Thurber, who spent the winter at the Foreign Mission Seminary, left New Orleans for Mexico last week Thursday. They went by boat to avoid the troubled conditions in the north. Let us pray that God may especially guide and protect these servants of his as they enter upon their work in troubled yet very needy Mexico.

McElhanys Go to Greater New York

AMONG the changes occasioned by the recent General Conference was that of Elder J. L. McElhany’s taking the presidency of the Greater New York Conference. Elder McElhany and his wife left for their new field of labor last week. Their labors in Washington have been greatly blessed during the last three years, and it is occasion for regret to see them leave Washington. We know, however, that they go to a great, needy field. We pray that God will abundantly bless their labors there.

Research for Denominational History

During the last two or three weeks Prof. M. E. Olsen has been spending some time in Battle Creek and Chicago looking up data connected with the early history of this movement, for use in the denominational history which he is writing. He reports the securing of some valuable material.

Letters of Sympathy Appreciated

In a recent letter from Mrs. G. A. Irwin, who is visiting her son, Prof. C. W. Irwin, at St. Helena, Cal., she says: “I wish to say to my friends who, in the great sorrow which has come to me, have written me letters of sympathy, that I appreciate these letters very much. They have helped me bear my bereavement. May God bless you for the kind, sympathetic words you have written me, is the prayer of your sister in Christ.”

The Joneses Return to the Islands

BROTHER and Sister G. F. Jones, who have been on furlough some months from the East Indies, left Washington last week on their return to the island field. They go through Canada, stopping en route with friends, expecting to sail from Vancouver, August 6, for Australia. Later they expect to settle in some of the island groups belonging to the Australasian Union Conference. Their earnest devotion to their calling has inspired many hearts with new interest in their needy field.

The Rogerses Return to Africa

ELDER and Mrs. J. C. Rogers recently left Washington on their return to Africa after more than a year’s furlough in Europe and America. They open up new territory about one hundred miles north of the Mantandane substation of the Nyasaland Mission. They will go by way of Africa’s east coast. They return with eagerness, and with hopeful, courageous hearts. Let us pray God to bless them as they enter again upon work in the African wilds.
