A Coronation Number
By Editor
THE Signs of the Times of June 11 will be a special number. It will take the event of the coronation of King Edward VII, probably a greater and more gorgeous event of the kind than the world has ever seen, and make it the occasion of presenting before the world another soon-coming coronation, the grandest the universe will ever see, the effect and blessings of which will extend throughout the ages of eternity.
This number of the Signs will have a beautiful front-page cover design of what the reign of Christ involves, with the motto, “Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever,” a full-page combination picture of Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, the royal apartments and throne rooms of Buckingham Palace and Windsor Castle, Westminster Abbey, the Coronation Chair, crown jewels, a picture of the late queen; an illustrated original song and music, and other harmonious, illustrative features. The historical information will be worth the price of the paper, and the truth it will present will be beyond price. It should be sold largely before the coronation of King Edward, June 26. Its retail price will be 5 cents a copy; 10 copies for 25 cents; and 25 copies or more, 2 cents a copy. Order early.

Obituaries
“I am the resurrection and the life.”—Jesus.
AYERS.—Catharine Sophia Whitmore was born in Geneva, N. Y., March 7, 1828. She was married to Lorenzo D. Ayers, a Seventh-day Baptist minister, in Lewiston, Ill., April 1, 1864. She was left a widow by the death of her husband in 1882. She was living with her sister in Battle Creek at the time of her death, May 4, 1902, her age being 74 years, 1 month, and 27 days. Soon after her marriage she was baptized and joined the Seventh-day Baptist Church. Later she accepted the Bible doctrine of the second coming of Christ, and united with the Seventh-day Adventists in Battle Creek, Mich., in 1887. Faithful until death, she rests in hope of a part in the first resurrection. Funeral, May 6; remarks by the writer.
I. D. Van Horn.

For sixteen years she has been a devoted Christian and firm believer in the third angel’s message. Of her it can be truly said, “Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth.”

South Lancaster Academy Summer School
By Frederick Griggs
SOUTH LANCASTER ACADEMY will conduct a summer school for the training of teachers for church schools in the Atlantic Union Conference and in foreign fields. The school will begin July 2 and continue until August 19. The line of instruction will include work in the methods of all the common subjects, particularly with reference to making the Bible the basis of the work, and also in health and missionary work, as the faculty of the New England Sanitarium will unite with the faculty of the academy in the work of this summer school. An announcement has been prepared, and will be sent on application to anyone desiring it. This announcement contains the terms, instruction with reference to course of study, etc.
There is a great need for teachers, and this school may be of much benefit to many who are now teaching in church and public schools, by giving them a further preparation for the work of the third angel's message.
FREDERICK GRIGGS.
Notice to Those Planning to Visit the Sanitarium
Notice!
THE undersigned wish to state to the public that it is absolutely necessary that those who are planning to come to the Sanitarium, or the Medical Missionary College, should write in advance of coming, and make necessary arrangements. It is not sufficient simply to write giving notice of coming, but arrangements should actually be made with those in charge of the work. It has for several years been customary for those who had friends at the Sanitarium to write and notify their friends of their coming. Such a notice is not adequate, and the management of the institution desire to say that, after this date, they cannot receive any with the exception of those with whom they have previously corresponded. SANITARIUM.
The Nurses' Training School
In preparation for the new building later in the fall, the Sanitarium managers desire to start an unusually large class in the Sanitarium Missionary Nurses' Training School. This is also necessitated by the increasing demand for Sanitarium nurses in all parts of the United States and the world. A well-trained Sanitarium nurse always has abundant opportunity for self-supporting missionary work.
The requirements will be made quite exacting. Only persons in good health, and those who expect to devote their lives to medical missionary work, will be received. A preparatory class will be organized for the benefit of those who are not prepared to begin the regular nurses' class.
Some employment can be given, but it cannot be promised to all at first. Board and room will be furnished at the low price of $1.75 a week. Tuition will be given free.
There is an increasing demand for medically trained workers. At least five hundred well-trained workers could be employed at once. In no direction is there a field of greater usefulness open for young men and women who love God and humanity, and who desire to devote their lives to noble service. The training given at the Battle Creek Sanitarium is unequaled. There is no other place in the world where young men and young women get so thorough a preparation for a grand and useful life service, and in a work where so much needs to be done.
Those interested in this matter should address, at once, the Training School Department, Battle Creek Sanitarium, Battle Creek, Mich.

North Dakota Camp Meetings
By N. W. Allee
FOR the convenience of the brethren of North Dakota, three camp meetings have been appointed,—Carrington, June 24-30; Arvilla, July 3-7; Minot, July 8-14. The organization of the North Dakota Conference will take place at the Carrington meeting. Each church in the State should be represented. The two meetings following are to accommodate the brethren living near each place. We expect these meetings to be profitable occasions. We need the benefits they will afford, and others need a knowledge of the message that we represent. A supply of literature, health foods, and other conveniences will be provided. N. W. ALLEE.

For All the Mission Fields
By W. A. Spicer
IT is not for Christiania alone that we are lifting when the midsummer offering of July 5 is taken up. That, in itself—the redemption of the publishing house and the splendid work to follow in Northern Europe—might well be sufficient to rally every soul to the rescue. But, in addition to this incentive, we may know that there is not a great mission field in the world but that will feel the stirring of fresh hope and courage if the word goes out that by one grand lift, all together, the Christiania matter has been completed. Every mission field will then know that all our mission resources will henceforward be released for the definite forward movement that is to add vast territories to our field of operation, and add many new tongues to the list of languages in which the truth is sounding. The day of quick moves and great things is come. “There is a world to be saved,” and, thank God! we are to be the heralds of the good news.
Every one knows with what zest one can take hold of a light task that prepares the way for a greater work on which the heart is set. All the enthusiasm for the greater purpose drives the energies forward to make quick work of the preparatory task. By all our love for the cause of missions, by the constraining love of Jesus for the perishing millions for whom we have a message, we are to make short work of this Christiania obligation. God has fulfilled his promise of blessing in the matter. Many hands and loving hearts have made light work of lifting the major part of the burden. Now the whole task may be completed by one strong pull. This conviction forces itself upon brethren here at home. The same conviction is felt by our brethren now assembled in the European General Conference, in London. Surely the conviction is of God, and the Spirit of God must be preparing in the hearts of all the people such a response as will send a thrill of joy through all the needy mission fields abroad.
The envelopes for taking up the offering will be sent to all the churches about the middle of June, so that all may be in readiness for the collection, July 5. Encourage all the children to have something to give. Let not one miss the blessing. This question of giving is not a depressing subject to talk about in these times. The truth is to be carried through every land within a few years. It is the one aim of all who understand God’s truth. To go and to give are the ways in which we may show our faith and be a part of this work. The one called of God to give may do it as enthusiastically as the one called to go. Thank God for a cause in which we may not fear to invest all we have and are. For his dear sake let us do our duty.
