THE following telegram was received on Wednesday of last week:—
A. G. Daniells,222 North Capitol Street,Washington, D. C.
Piedmont Sanitarium burned. Inmates saved. Loss, three thousand. No insurance.
M. H. JOHNSTON.
The Piedmont Sanitarium was located at Hildebran, N. C., and had just been put in readiness to receive patients, after much sacrificing effort. Its destruction will be a severe blow to its friends who have labored so hard to establish it, and they will have no insurance money with which to replace it. We offer our sincere sympathy to those who are most directly connected with this enterprise, and in saying this we are confident that we are voicing the sentiment which many others would express, if they had the opportunity of doing so.
The Review at the Camp-Meetings
By Editor
At the local and State camp-meetings of this season will be gathered thousands of our people, and among them will be found, no doubt, a large number who are not subscribers of the REVIEW. We are very desirous that all those who do not now take the paper shall have their attention called to it, and that they shall have a copy to examine. To this end, we shall be pleased to send as many copies, without charge, to each camp-meeting as will be judiciously used in a tent-to-tent canvass. If conference officers will arrange this matter beforehand, select some suitable person who is sure to be in attendance to canvass the grounds, and will send us his name, we will see that the papers are sent in good time. At least three weeks before the meeting begins, we should know how many copies are wanted, and to whom they are to be sent.
The REVIEW is thought by many of our people to be practically indispensable, and it is our intention to make it better and better as the Lord gives wisdom to plan for it. It will teach the message for this time, and will tell of its progress and success throughout the world. The REVIEW would like to speak to every Sabbath-keeping family each week. Do you not believe that it would be a real help and inspiration to our people everywhere, if they had this paper each week? Conference officers and ministers, will you not help us in our efforts to accomplish this during the present camp-meeting season?
