Report from J. N. Loughborough

By John Norton Loughborough

My last report was dated Dec. 22, 1910. Since that time the Lord has given strength for some labor in this precious cause. December 24 I was again with the new church at Galt, nine miles from Lodi. On December 31 I conducted the ordinance service with the Lodi church. January 6-17 I was with Brother G. A. Irwin at Los Angeles, in an institute for the ministers and workers in the Southern California Conference. Here I attended twenty-seven meetings, speaking in eight of them. The talks of Brother Irwin on the church, and its order and management, were most timely. On the second Sabbath our workers were all assembled for the whole day by ourselves. Brother Irwin conducted a reading on unity, the answers to all questions being read from the Testimonies. This was followed by a prayer and testimony meeting. It was a precious occasion. We were of one mind, and the Lord came very near.

On Sabbath, January 21, I gave two talks in our meeting-house on Laguna Street, San Francisco, on the topic, How We Know That the Gift of Prophecy Among Seventh-day Adventists Is a True Gift. January 23 to February 8, for fourteen mornings, I spoke to the students of the Lodi Normal Academy. In the meantime I spoke one Sabbath to the Lodi church, and conducted one funeral service.

From February 9-19 I attended our harmonious conference at Fresno, which has already been reported in the Review. It was indeed an interesting occasion to me. I looked back to 1899, when there were but three Sabbath-keepers west of the Rocky Mountains,—namely, Sister Morehouse, residing near Pendleton, Ore., and Brother and Sister Maxson, at Walla Walla, who became Seventh-day Adventists when the message was preached in that place.

In 1868, when Elder D. T. Bourdeau and I came to California, we found fewer than twelve persons who professed to keep the Sabbath, and several of those never joined our churches. Now, with all our mistakes, we can only say, as we look about us, “What hath God wrought!” Including British Columbia, we see, west of the Rocky Mountains, three union conferences, with over fifteen thousand Seventh-day Adventists; three colleges, one an organized medical college; several academies and intermediate schools; scores of church-schools; and five sanitariums under conference control, besides several under private management, but in harmony with the work of the third angel’s message. What a work might be done by all these believers and institutions if wholly consecrated to the advancement of the message!

With the coming in of March we have had much cold, rainy weather, but I have tried to improve the time in some important writing, and in reading about six thousand pages of the Testimonies. In this course of reading and study of the past I watched carefully to see how many predictions made by the Lord through Sister White had been accurately fulfilled. I was led to this by a statement made in a manuscript Testimony dated April 24, 1903, which reads as follows: “Soon every possible effort will be made to discount and belittle the Testimonies of God’s Spirit. We must have in readiness the clear, straight messages that since 1846 have been coming to God’s people.” I thought: “Surely the predictions which have been literally fulfilled must be among the straight testimonies.” The Bible places the fulfilment of prophecies as proof of the source from which they come. “Produce your cause, saith the Lord; bring forth your strong reasons, saith the King of Jacob. Let them bring them forth, and show us what shall happen: let them show the former things, what they be, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them; or declare us things for to come. Show the things that are to come hereafter, that we may know that ye are gods.” Isa. 41:21-23; see also chapter 48:3-7. Again: “The prophet which prophesieth of peace, when the word of the prophet shall come to pass, then shall the prophet be known, that the Lord hath truly sent him.” Jer. 28:9. “Who is he that saith, and it cometh to pass, when the Lord commandeth it not?” Lam. 3:37. For one who carefully reads the Testimonies, and sees the scores of predictions that have been accurately fulfilled, there is a rich feast.

British Columbia Conference

By H. S. SHAW

The tenth annual session of the British Columbia Conference was held in Vancouver, January 26-31. Sixteen churches were represented by duly elected delegates. Elder C. A. Burman, the laborers in the British Columbia Conference, and the writer constituted the ministerial help for the meeting. The Lord was present to bless his people, and it is said by many that this was the best conference they ever attended in British Columbia.

From the reports read before the delegates we glean the following information: There are sixteen organized churches, with a membership of 316, and thirty-nine isolated Sabbath-keepers, making the total number of Sabbath-keepers 355. There are nine church buildings in the conference, two or three of which have been erected during the past year.

The amount of the ten-cent-a-week offerings was $2,431.87, or about fifteen cents per capita for the membership. Last year this fund amounted to about thirteen cents per capita.

Considerable gain is noticed in 1910 over 1909. The tithe shows a gain of over twenty-five per cent, rising from $5,019.56 to $6,367.23, a gain of $1,347.67. Gifts to foreign missions rose from $936.29 to $2,073.20, a gain of $1,136.91. The Sabbath-school membership grew from 327 to 425, a gain of ninety-eight. The Sabbath-school donations for 1909 were $395.41; for 1910, $643.82, a gain of $248.41. All Sabbath-school offerings went to foreign missions.

The tract society made a gain of $501.03 during 1910. It is out of debt, and has a good stock of books and tracts on hand. The book sales for 1910 were $4,264.50, a large gain over those for the previous year.

The school work has made a decided gain in every way. There are more students in the school than ever before, and a larger per cent of these are older, and better able to appreciate the purpose for which the school exists.

The debts which have hung over the conference for some time have either been paid or provided for, so that the conference is practically free from debt.

Elder J. G. Walker was unanimously re-elected to the presidency of the conference, and with him a corps of strong secretaries for the various departments.

Sister Bertha Lofstad, who has faithfully served the conference for years as secretary-treasurer, felt it her duty to take a much-needed rest, and at her earnest request she was released. Brother Andrew Raedel, of North Dakota, was elected to that office. Sister Lofstad will be followed by the prayers and good wishes of all who have known her in her work.

There had existed some conditions in

this conference which had greatly impeded the progress of the work. The Spirit of the Lord came in, and swept away difficulties, and the brethren take up the work with united efforts, confident in the blessing of the Lord. It was a wonderful transformation, such as only the Spirit of God can bring. Our brethren from all parts of the conference returned to their homes feeling that there is a bright future before the work in the British Columbia Conference.

Against the Mighty

By M. E. K.

SOME of God's people anciently were cursed “because they came not to the help of the Lord . . . against the mighty.” Judges 5:23. Surely we have a mighty foe to fight in the gigantic evil of intemperance. The name “Missionary Volunteers” implies an army. The campaign is on. Let all our loyal young men and women take their places in the ranks, and do their duty now.

Excellent reports are coming in of the activities of our young people in this movement. Many of our schools are doing a special temperance work this spring. Programs are being given, and the Temperance Instructor is being circulated. The principal of the Bethel (Wis.) Academy writes:—

“Relative to the temperance campaign, our young people here are wide awake. Last year we rendered three programs within the radius of ten miles of our school. Thus far this year we have given one. This has won for our young people many friends and some enemies. You understand we live not far from Milwaukee. The young people's society has also kept a copy of the Instructor in the library at our nearest city, Marshfield.”

The president of the Loma Linda (Cal.) Medical College writes as follows concerning the temperance work:—

“We are much interested in the Temperance number of the Instructor, which is just out, and are ordering five thousand copies for Loma Linda. Our plan to dispose of them is to get access to the schools of the two counties near us, and distribute the papers to the students. We already have the permission of a large number of the schools. We will pay for these papers by soliciting means from the business men in the towns near by. We have had excellent success in soliciting among them in the past, and I am sure we can raise sufficient funds for this enterprise. Our students are very much interested, and we expect to give a week to this temperance campaign as soon as the papers arrive.”

At the Southwestern Union Conference Missionary Volunteer Institute, the Temperance special was presented, and six thousand two hundred copies were ordered.

From Southern California comes this good word:—

“This conference will double its output of the 1910 issue. You may count on it. Last year we used about 5,225 copies of the Temperance Instructor. Thus far this year the total orders for the coming issue amount to something over 6,200, and forty per cent of our societies have not yet been heard from.”

In the old Prohibition State of Maine, the temperance question is to be voted on again this year. Our workers in that conference are taking hold earnestly to do what they can to save Maine from the curse of liquor. One of the conference officers writes:—

“We are very enthusiastic about the Instructor. It is planned to have all our laborers engage in its sale, and we are

praying that it will result in much good to the cause of temperance. Sister Bates and I are planning a campaign with the Instructor, and we sincerely hope that the people of Maine will take advantage of this opportunity.”

Most encouraging are the efforts being put forth by some other temperance organizations to circulate our good paper. Mrs. T. E. Patterson, president of the Georgia W. C. T. U., sends a list of all her local W. C. T. U. presidents, asking us to mail sample copies of the Temperance Instructor to them. She says: “It is indeed a fine issue. I wish we might sow Georgia knee deep with them, and I shall be glad to do what I can to circulate the paper in this State.”

What are the Seventh-day Adventist young people in your church doing? What are you doing? M. E. K.

The Jamaica Conference

By H. C. Goodrich

It was the privilege of Mrs. Goodrich and myself to attend the Jamaica Conference, which convened at Kingston, Dec. 30, 1910. All the laborers were present, and seventy-seven delegates represented the thirty-seven churches and companies of the conference. Two new companies were raised up during the year, with additions amounting to more than one hundred sixty members. Two new meeting-houses are ready for dedication, and other church buildings are being erected. An interest to hear the truth is shown by the calls that come from many places for the living preacher.

The president of the conference, Elder D. E. Wellman, and his wife, have traveled hundreds of miles with their own horse and carriage, holding conventions in the interest of the Sabbath-school work, wherever two or more little churches or companies could meet. The success of these efforts led the conference to pass a resolution that these conventions be continued during 1911, and that they also embrace work for the young people and general church work.

Another plan for the advancement of church work, was the preparation of weekly readings or Bible studies for use by church leaders. This, with the convention work, has proved no small factor in the education of our people in the precious truths of our message.

The canvassing work was also considered, and the conference decided to employ a man who would be able to devote at least a considerable part of his time to the training of workers for the field. This is an important move in the right direction. It will be a long step in advance when every conference in the West Indian Union has a book man to push the work of circulating our literature, and there is a call for a strong union man to take charge of the whole.

The conference was favored with the presence of many of the delegates to the union conference, which was held at the same place immediately following the Jamaica Conference. Among these was Prof. H. R. Salisbury, representing the General Conference. His help was very much appreciated. His stereopticon lectures, with views of schools, sanitariums, churches, and publishing-houses, inspired all with new courage and zeal as we saw the wonderful progress made under difficult circumstances, by the blessing of God, throughout the world.

Every day had its program, and was filled with work. Papers on church and Sabbath-school work, the duties of officers, duties of lay members, and how to conduct meetings without a minister, were read and considered. All the questions were thoroughly discussed, with a harmony of sentiment and a brotherly feeling that were good to see. The laborers and delegates returned to their respective fields with an expressed determination to put more faithfulness, more earnestness, and more of the love of Christ into their work in 1911 than in any year of the past.

I HAVE decided to make Lynchburg my headquarters for the present, perhaps permanently. This is a city of many factories; and while my special work will be to establish a training-school for the mountaineers, I can also assist our church here in its effort to comply with the instruction given in the Testimonies, “Work the cities.” I earnestly request the prayers of our people everywhere that I may be given wisdom and knowledge, and that many of the poor people of these mountain regions may learn of the soon-coming Saviour. Then they can go out as workers, and tell the good tidings to others.

Japan

By F. H. DeVINNEY

HERE we can hold three tent efforts in a season. In most places the people will come out to meetings as in the early days of tent efforts in the States. There are no halls here, and it is difficult to attempt to work in that way. Japanese houses are generally small, so meetings can not often be held in private homes. Our method is to hold Bible readings with small groups of interested ones. This is good work, but it is slow, and the King's business requires haste in this great empire.

We have a small school this year, as we thought it best to leave some who have had the advantages of the school in the field, to hold interests, while we called in for study those who had not heretofore had the privilege of attending. We have a good class of young men. Some are ready to take a more active part in evangelistic effort from their experience in tent work last season. We propose to give them an opportunity to develop, so that they may perfect themselves, and push on the work of the Lord. F. H. DeVINNEY.

Field Notes

Two families have accepted the message as the result of home Bible studies at Fitchburg, Mass.

Two families have accepted the truth at Starbuck, Wash.; and as the result of meetings at Cle Elum, three have decided to obey the truth.

ELDER J. M. ELLIS has concluded a series of meetings near Petersburg, Ind. Two young men were baptized, and two other persons have decided to keep the Sabbath.

ELDER R. T. NASH reports that six persons have signified their decision to keep the Sabbath as a result of a short series of meetings at La Grange, N. C. At Rock Ridge nine persons were recently baptized.

Missionary Volunteer Institute for the Southwestern Union

By C. SORENSON

The first of the series of Missionary Volunteer institutes was held at Keene, February 23-28. Elder Meade MacGuire came from Colorado several days before the time for the institute to open, and began to hold evening meetings in the church. The good impression continued to deepen until Friday night, when about eighty remained for the after-meeting. While a number of these had known the Lord in the past, and remained to seek a higher experience, others were coming to the Lord for the first time.

The meetings partook of a deep spiritual nature from the very beginning, and many of the older members of the church came to the services held in the daytime. The chapel was filled, as were all the extra seats that could be placed. Elder G. F. Watson, the union conference president, with several of the local conference presidents, was in attendance, and took an active part in all the sessions of the institute. While we were disappointed in not having Prof. H. R. Salisbury with us, the Lord so abundantly blessed the labors of Elder MacGuire and Miss Erickson that it seemed as if there would not have been room for more in the time allotted us.

At the meetings held during the day the topics considered were: The Purpose of the Work, the Spiritual Foundation on Which It Rests, the Plan of Organization, and Plans of Work. As an evidence of the desire to better understand the plans of the work, we might mention the fact that more than forty questions, covering all phases of the work, were placed in the question-box.

That which gives the greatest hope for the future of this work is the spiritual basis on which it rests. The closing meeting Tuesday night was given to a consideration of the topic, What the Convention Has Done for Me. This meeting was open for all, and nearly every one present spoke words of appreciation and thanks for the blessings received. One of the leading workers said: “I am so thankful for the opportunity I have had of attending this institute. It gives me new courage to see that this great movement is not something aside from the work of the church, but that it is getting the strength of our young people turned fully into the lines of work in which the church is engaged. It speaks to me of progress and victory.” This expressed the sentiments of many of them present. The students who had engaged in prayer and labor for their companions were cheered as they saw them, from night to night, seeking God for his blessing. C. SORENSON.

Why a Special Work Should Be Carried on for the Young People

By Edmund C. Jaeger

THE study of statistics shows that conversion belongs almost exclusively to the years between ten and twenty-five. It has been estimated that out of every thousand joining our various churches, over half that number join before reaching the age of twenty, and another third before their thirtieth year.

It may be said, almost without exception, that what you would do for a man, you must do for him while he is a boy. The whole trend of modern psychology has been to put emphasis upon the period of youth as the decisive period of life. The religious experience, the education, and the character of after-years are determined by the education and environment of childhood.

“’Tis granted, and no plainer truth appears, Our most important are our earliest years: The mind impressionable and soft, with ease Imbibes and copies what it hears and sees, And through life’s labyrinth holds fast the clue That education gives her, both false and true.”

Consider the beauty of the material with which we have to deal in our work for the young,— material fresh and plastic,— boys and girls on the threshold of life, buoyant, hopeful, and full of vigor, “none wanting to fail, none needing to fail,” thirsty plants ready to imbibe the waters of truth. Ever are they saying:—

“We are willing, we are ready, We would learn if you would teach. Look into our childish faces: See you not our willing hearts? Only love us, only teach us, And we all will do our parts.”

For what more could we ask? From the standpoint of the teacher the conditions are ideal. Convert a boy, and he has a beautiful future to expend in the service of Christ, with opportunity of accumulated growth in usefulness. As John R. Mott puts it: “If you reach an old man, and interest him in right objects, you are dealing in addition. If you reach a boy, you are dealing in multiplication.”

Then consider the fact that the young possess a greater amount of physical energy than those of any other age; that this very power of which they are conscious makes them able to attempt undertakings that old age would not dare to consider. This buoyant energy, this unwearing strength, this hope that sings over his head, is the life of the world. The fact that the mind of the youth has not been dulled by failures and disappointments, that he has freedom from care, allows him an advantage which is invaluable in grappling with the new problems of the church. Why do we let the machinery of lives wear themselves half out in the service of sin before we attempt to enlist them in service for Christ? Why do we wait until a boy grows into manhood, goes wrong, and becomes unimpressionable, before we attempt to help him? Some one will have to answer this question before the great white throne. We enter upon the difficult task of trying to reform character, when it would have been comparatively easy to form character.

The artful adversary of all human kind has not been unawake to the significance and importance of the plastic state of the mind at the beginning of life. His fiercest temptations are directed at the youth. The forces of evil are seeking in every way to drag him down. Evil invites him on every turn. Nearly all criminals begin their downward course before their eighteenth year. John R. Mott suggests that if the breakdown in character occurs later in life, the seams were made in youth. Where are those who will stand ready to shield the growing child from the contaminations of lust and greed? Are there not fathers and mothers in Israel who will by their earnest efforts and ceaseless prayers defeat the plans of the evil one?

It is in the beginning that, agencies for evil are easiest curbed or crushed. As the boy of Holland saved his country from inundation of the sea by placing his hand over the small leak in the dike, so in all social effort it is easier to crush the small outcroppings of crime and tendencies toward evil, than to wait until manhood has developed, and sin in all its myriad forms has wound its tentacles around the soul.

Consider the vast influence a young person has to invest. Whether this power shall be wasted in mischief-making, dissipation, and influencing others for wrong, or whether it shall be diverted to good ends, depends largely upon us. One bad boy in the community will in a month teach filthy ideas which the teachings of purity of a lifetime can rarely efface. The youth are natural teachers. They learn more from one another than from all the teachers in the land. It has been the provision of a kind Providence to make this teaching ability of youth potent in the dissemination of truth and goodness among their fellows. Being of the same age, they have intellectual sympathies which produce a sense of unity. This is a great advantage. When Sir George Williams founded his Young Men’s Christian Association, and gave to the world the idea of Christian work as expressed in the phrase, “Young men for young men,” he gave to us the key for the solution of the problem of winning the world’s young people for Christ. Let parents realize this, and work to save the young, that they may in turn be a power to save their fellow youth.

A Christian’s Witness

By Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman

A CHRISTIAN should be an unanswerable argument for the Bible, a rebuke to every one living in hypocrisy, an invitation to all who are living in sin. He lives in right relations to his God, and reminds the world of Jesus.— Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman.

The Oakwood (Ala.) Sanitarium

By M. M. MARTINSON

For a number of years conditions have demanded a sanitarium in connection with the school at Huntsville, Ala. Recognizing this need, the school faculty asked Dr. Amy I. Bascom to connect with the school, and a nurses' class was organized. The building was not put up until the next fall, and a few months later the doctor died. My wife and I did not connect with the institution until April, 1910. At that time the main building was up, and most of the work done, but there were no treatment-rooms, no water system, and no heating-plant. We planned these right away, but by the time we got the material, it was the busy season in the field, and we could not secure help to do the work until it was too late to open at the beginning of winter, so we dropped that work, and went to work on our new dining-hall. We have now set the time for opening the sanitarium for the last of March, and are putting the finishing touches on the heating and water systems. The rooms are being finished and the floors oiled.

The building is not large, having only seven rooms for patients on the second floor. The first floor has the parlor, the business and medical offices, the kitchen, the dining-room, and two rooms for those who look after the sick. The basement has one complete set of treatment-rooms, one bath-room for students, one room for the heating-plant, etc. The building is heated with hot water.

During the months of delay, we have received some money for furnishings; others have given furniture and supplies; so we are able to fit up a number of rooms, and shall be ready to receive patients as fast as they come.

It is our purpose to carry out, in this sanitarium for the colored people, the same principles that prevail in our institutions of like nature in other parts of the world. We shall be able to give these well-known treatments, and also to teach the principles of health reform here and wherever we come in touch with the people.

The school has graduated two classes of nurses, and has two more in training.

We shall be able to teach, not only the theoretical work, but also the practical, as we have the appliances usually found in our sanitariums, with the exception of the electric-light appliances. It is our plan to do aggressive work in the field the coming year.

We shall be pleased to hear from persons who are interested in sanitarium work; and if you have neighbors who are sick, kindly help us to get in touch with them. By so doing, you will help to fill the sanitarium.

The Medical Missionary

By D. H. K.

There are men who have lavishly bestowed wealth upon certain institutions and enterprises. These gifts are recorded in history, and the names of the donors are heralded far and wide. But there are gifts of greater value to this world than money. If money had been the great thing needed, Jesus could have brought millions with him. The Great Giver came to this world penniless. Of himself he said, “The Son of man hath not where to lay his head.” He gave himself to humanity; he came to minister, to serve, to bless. What joy and gladness he brought into the lives of men! The poor and needy heard and received him gladly.

Peter said to the impotent man at the gate of the temple, “Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I unto thee.” He gave to the poor cripple something which was infinitely better and more welcome than money.

There is nothing this world needs so much to-day as men and women who will give themselves to the betterment of mankind. Of Jesus it is said that he “went about doing good,” and “healing all manner of sickness and all manner of diseases among the people.”

To his disciples he said, in sending them forth, “Heal the sick.” This work has been sadly neglected by the church of Christ, yet there never was a time when there was a greater need for it than the present. There has never been a time of more sickness and suffering. Three million persons are at this very moment disabled on account of sickness in the United States. Most of this sickness is preventable. The people perish for lack of knowledge.

There is something that is needed more than money. The world needs Christlike sympathy. It needs a helping hand. “Give me relief from my bodily and mental distress, and from every affliction,” is the unexpressed cry of the masses. The one who can bring relief to body and mind will be welcomed everywhere. The gospel is the great and the only remedy for man’s ills. It carries good will to all. It has promise of the life that now is, and of the life that is to come. We have not yet given this work of ministering to man’s needs the place it demands in our work.

We are told that “medical missionary work is yet in its infancy,” and that “the meaning of genuine medical missionary work is known by but few, because the Saviour’s plan of work has not been followed.” To our ministers the words are spoken: “Let our ministers who have gained an experience in preaching the Word learn how to give simple treatments, and then labor intelligently as medical missionary evangelists.”

Not only should ministers do this, but “we have come to a time when every member of the church should take hold of medical missionary work.” “Christ is no longer in this world in person, to go through our cities and towns and villages, healing the sick. He has commissioned us to carry forward the medical missionary work that he began.”

An Appeal to Gospel Workers

“Every gospel worker should feel that the giving of instruction in the principles of healthful living is a part of his appointed work. Of this there is great need, and the world is open for it.”

“There is sickness everywhere, and most of it might be prevented by attention to laws of health. The people need to see the bearing of health principles upon their well-being both for this life and for the life to come.”

Is There a Welcome for Such Workers?

“Thousands need and would gladly receive instruction concerning the simple methods of treating the sick,—methods that are taking the place of the use of poisonous drugs. There is a great need of instruction on dietetic reform. Wrong habits of eating and the use of unhealthful food are in no small degree responsible for the intemperance and crime that curse the world.”

Some who have lost confidence in Christianity, in witnessing its results, may be reached in this way. “In almost every community there are large numbers who do not listen to the preaching of God’s Word or attend any religious service. If they are reached by the gospel, it must be carried to their homes. Often the relief of their physical needs is the only avenue by which they can be approached. Missionary nurses who can care for the sick and relieve the distress of the poor will find many opportunities to pray with them, to read to them from God’s Word, and to speak of the Saviour.”

This work can not be done by voting. It can not be delegated to organizations. It is an individual work, in which all should have a part.

“Everywhere there is a tendency to substitute the work of organization for individual effort. Human wisdom tends to consolidation, to centralization, to building up great churches and institutions. Multitudes leave to the institutions and organizations the work of benevolence; they excuse themselves from contact with the world, and their hearts grow cold. They become self-absorbed and unimpressionable. Love for God and man dies out of the soul.”

“The Lord in his great goodness and matchless love has been urging it upon his human instrumentalities that the education of missionaries is not really complete unless they have a knowledge of how to treat the sick.”

“In God’s work teaching and healing are never to be separated.”
