Fourth Sabbath Service Readings

By Editor

WILL our church elders and company leaders please note that in this issue are published the readings for the regular fourth Sabbath service?

Headquarters in Redfield, South Dakota

REDFIELD, S. D., has been chosen as the headquarters for our work in that State. Here will be located the school, the tract society office, and the conference office.

Claude AcMoody Relocates for Health

Elder Claude AcMoody, who reports some progress in his efforts to regain his health, has been advised by his physician to seek a lower altitude than New Mexico. Accordingly, accompanied by his mother, he will soon leave for Southern California, expecting to locate at Long Beach.

Dr. Ernest Wilfred Ingle Graduates

We are glad to note the name of Dr. Ernest Wilfred Ingle among the graduates of the Northwestern University (Chicago) Medical College. Brother Ingle is from South Africa, and he will doubtless return to that field erelong.

Departures from Korea

ELDER I. H. EVANS writes that he was expecting to leave Korea for the Friedensau Council, June 16, over the Siberian route. In the same letter he tells of the intended sailing of Brother Culhane and wife, and Brother Cush Sparks and family, June 19, for the States.

Australasian Record Students’ Number

A WELL-EDITED issue of the Australasian Record comes to us, labeled “Students’ Number.” The Avondale students were responsible for this issue, its editing, proof-reading, and printing, all of which is certainly a recommendation of the good work being done at the school.

John Brown Pioneers Book Work in Spain

John Brown, who has been doing excellent work in Mexico in the circulation of literature, has answered an earnest call from Spain to pioneer the book work in that needy field. He passed through Washington last week, sailing from New York on Wednesday, June 28. He will also attend the Friedensau council.

Boger Family to Superintend British Guiana

Brother and Sister Boger go to take the superintendency of the work in British Guiana. Brother Boger takes the place of Brother O. E. Davis, who plans to leave that field with his family sometime in August.

Conferences Sending Liberty to Public-School Teachers

By Editor

THE conferences which are taking up the work of sending the magazine Liberty to their public-school teachers are the following: Mississippi, Arizona, North Dakota, North Michigan, West Michigan, East Michigan, Southern Illinois, Arkansas, West Pennsylvania, Wyoming, Greater New York, North Carolina, Tennessee River, Louisiana, Northern Missouri, Western New York, South Carolina, Upper Columbia, Central California, Ohio, and Minnesota. This is one of the most effective lines of missionary work that can be engaged in, and we wish the list might include every conference in America.

A Car-Load a Month

By Editor

A GLANCE at our records shows that this Office has shipped out during the first six months of this year an average of more than one car-load of books every month. Vacation season is now here, and scores of student canvassers are in the field, greatly augmenting, and in some instances doubling, the regular force of canvassers. The evidences are that the next few months, at least, our shipments will be very much larger than at any time in the past. Let us thank God, and take courage. There is still room for scores of other consecrated men and women who can do excellent service for the Master in selling our literature.

Brother Last Dies in Prison

WORD comes from North India that an old native, Brother Last, our only Sabbath-keeper in the Panjab district, died in prison as the result of injuries inflicted when incarcerated. He lived in a section where Mohammedanism prevails, and being accused superstitiously of causing the death of a mother and child in the upper rooms of the same house where he lived (although they both died from natural causes), he was bound by several Mohammedans, and turned over to the police with the untruthful tale of his crime. The police beat him in such an inhuman manner that five days later he died in his cell. He was not even permitted the services of his wife, who begged of them to release him, as she saw that he could not live. He was buried by the prison authorities.

A Pioneer Praises the Review

BROTHER G. W. AMADON, one of the pioneers in this cause, speaks thus in reference to the REVIEW AND HERALD:—

“I want to express my appreciation for the many good things that appear in the REVIEW AND HERALD from week to week. I do not see how our brethren and sisters can get along without it. How cheering are the things brought out in the World-Wide Field department week by week! Besides these good reports are many other precious things in each issue.”

Brother Amadon was one of the workmen in the Review Office when this paper was gotten out on the old Washington hand-press in Rochester, N. Y. He feels he can not keep abreast with the REVIEW. If this same sentiment, or principle, of Brother Amadon’s were shared by many who are not now reading the excellent things found in the REVIEW week by week, there would be not only many more papers needed to supply the demand, but greater interest would be manifested in the advancement of the cause throughout the world.
