THE COLLEGE TERM.

By W. H. Littlejohn

The second term of Battle Creek College for this year, commenced on the 19th of November under very encouraging circumstances.

On the first day the number of students, as compared with last term, was increased by about sixty. It now reaches over three hundred, and each day adds to the list. Those students who have not been able to come to the College up to this time, need not hesitate to do so hereafter for fear that it is too late to do so to advantage, as it will be possible for those who may come within several weeks to find places in classes that will be adapted to their necessities.

COMBINATION OFFER OF THE “SIGNS” AND “SUNSHINE.”

By S. N. Haskell

IN many respects the General Conference just closed has been the most encouraging of any ever held by Seventh-day Adventists. Plans were laid which, when properly executed, will establish missions in at least three more nations, and in a number of additional States in America. But the most important movement which relates to our missionary work was the combination offer of the two publishing houses of the “Sunshine at Home” and the Signs of the Times. It has been demonstrated by the sale of 15,000 of the “Sunshine” in less than one year that this is the best selling book ever offered by our people. Some have sold as high as fifteen or twenty in one day. During the last season Minnesota has sold 3,000, Michigan 4,000, and so it has gone more or less throughout the country.

Some have felt conscientious about selling the book because it did not contain more of present truth; and yet everything it does contain is elevating and stores the mind with useful ideas. It is emphatically a book for the youth and children, and is instructive to all.

Arrangements have now been made to place this book and the Signs together, so that the canvasser can have the same per cent as heretofore; but all business should be done through the tract societies. There is no better time to sell them than before the holidays. We are certain that there can be 20,000 sold within the next sixty days, the Signs to be sent for three months to each subscriber. In this arrangement it will be seen that the “Sunshine at Home” becomes an entering wedge for the pioneer sheet.

We suggest that the following plans be adopted:—

Let each tract society make immediate arrangements with its agents to canvass for “Sunshine.”
Get all the new canvassers in the field possible, as it has been proved that “Sunshine” is an excellent work for a canvasser to use in gaining an experience.
The price to the canvasser is to be the same as heretofore.
Each canvasser should always present the Signs, and state the offer made by our publishing houses. The particulars will be explained by circulars to agents and tract society officers.

GOOD WORDS FOR "GOOD HEALTH."

By C. C. L.

If those who ought to appreciate Good Health most are sometimes forgetful of their obligations to that journal and neglectful of its teachings, it will go outside their ranks, and win patronage and appreciation from those who are not so much indebted to its teachings. Indeed it has already done this, as witnesses the following from the Union Signal, the official organ of the Woman's National Christian Temperance Union:—

“Dr. Bessie Cushman, of Hannibal, Mo., becomes secretary of the department of Hygiene, and will strongly enforce our valued Mrs. Dr. Kellogg. It would be a great advantage to this department if our white ribbon women would read and heed the wisdom of Dr. Kellogg’s magazine, Good Health, published monthly at Battle Creek.”

We expect to see all at this meeting who intend to labor in the cause in Colorado this year.

OHIO T. AND M. MEMBERS, ATTENTION!

By E. H. Gates

Realizing the importance of having an accurate record of all business transactions, we have decided to have our State T. and M. books audited as far back as the time when our present set of books was commenced. I have appointed Bro. H. D. Clark, of Wakeman, Huron Co., to do this work, trusting that his experience in auditing accounts will enable us to make thorough work. Now I request all our district secretaries, ministers, licentiates, colporters, and individuals to immediately send to his address a statement of their accounts, especially all cash remitted, as far back as their records reach. Bro. Clark is desirous of prompt action on the part of all, that no unnecessary time or expense may be incurred. We hope that all will attend to this matter at once. E. H. Gates.

Sabbath Memorial Completes Its Tenth Year

By Editor

The last number of the Sabbath Memorial, published by W. M. Jones, of London, completed the tenth year of its existence. We are glad it has been enabled thus long to bear its testimony for the true Sabbath of the Lord, against the traditions of men; and we trust it may go on with increasing strength and support in the future.

Biographical Sketch of Dr. Ribton in Sabbath Memorial

The October number of the Sabbath Memorial contains a brief biographical sketch of the late Dr. Ribton, killed in the massacre at Alexandria, June 11, 1882, together with an “ink-photo” portrait from the lithographic press of Sprague & Co., London.
