We hope to see as general an attendance of the directors and officers of the different districts as possible, and especially the brethren of Sonoma county, St. Helena, and Vallejo. Brn. Rice, E. J.

A Sabbath-School Lesson on Old Testament History
By Editor
THE article on the first page, although not one of the interesting series on Old Testament history which has of late occupied that place, will be found of great value to all, especially to members of the California Sabbath-schools, as the lesson for next Sabbath is upon the same subject. We regret the break in the articles, but trust Mrs. White will soon be able to resume them.
