Cheering Reports from the Philippines

AGAIN there comes from the Philippines one of those wonderfully cheering reports. Elder L. V. Finster writes: “I am glad to tell you that we have had some most wonderful interests from our tent meetings thus far this year. The one located in San Pablo, which has been conducted by our native evangelist, has been greatly blessed. Thus far I have baptized one hundred and thirty persons there, and expect to baptize forty more next week. They are of the better class of people, and there seems to be a deep interest in that place. The tent meeting here in Manila also was very fruitful. After the first series we baptized sixty-six persons, and we are now holding meetings in another place, and expect to have some there to baptize later on. Our canvassers are also having good success with their books, and we expect to put up the largest record this year in our book sales we have ever had in the Philippine Islands.”
