The Signs of the Times.

Oakland, Cal., Fifth-day, January 24, 1884.
Notice.— We send no papers from this Office without pay in advance, unless by special arrangement. When persons receive copies without ordering them they are sent by other parties, and we can give no information in regard to them. Persons thus receiving them are not indebted to the Office.
Money orders, drafts, etc., should be made to “Pacific Press,” never to individuals, as they may be absent, and business thereby be delayed.
The post-office address of Eld. J. O. Corliss is Healdsburg, Cal., box 221.
The post-office address of Bro. Geo. R. Drew is 16 Rodney St., Birkenhead, Cheshire, Eng.
The Editor of the Signs has been invited to assist in dedicating the Seventh-day Adventist house of worship in Ferndale, Humboldt Co., Cal. We can attend if it is deferred to Feb. 3. On account of our absence to attend the meeting at Healdsburg we cannot leave the office sooner. We expect the dedication will be Feb. 3, at 2 P. M.
The many friends of Dr. W. P. Burke, in California, will be pleased to hear that he is well, and pursuing his studies in the Michigan State University at Ann Arbor. It is a first-class school, and we congratulate him on his situation.
An extended report of the late meeting in Healdsburg is at hand, which we would be much pleased to have in this number of the Signs, but it was received after the pages were stereotyped. This and some other matter we have been compelled to lay over a week.
We have received the first of a proposed series of articles, and the writer says that if it is not understood future numbers will make it clear. We cannot publish anything with the expectation that it will be made clear to the reader at some future time.
Dr. Dio Lewis is undoubtedly a man of much ability, but we cannot commend his discretion in consenting to discuss with John B. Finch, the advocate of prohibition. Finch is a young man, but he has the strong side, and he understands it.
