Helping One Another

By W. A. S.

It is good to see through all the field the manifestation of the spirit of brotherly helpfulness in pushing on the cause of the message — one field reaching out to aid another, older and stronger institutions standing by younger ones, and brother helping brother.

The other day, in England, we were sitting in a council of the British Union Committee. Dr. C. H. Hayton, of the Watford Sanitarium, had presented the need of hospital and surgical ward facilities in that new institution.

As the problem of ways and means was being wrestled with, the proposition was made by the management of the older Caterham Sanitarium (of which Dr. A. B. Olsen is superintendent) that Caterham supply a thousand pounds (nearly $5,000) to help out Watford's need.

So the older institution helps the younger; in the spirit of the scripture, “They helped every one his neighbor; and every one said to his brother, Be of good courage.” W. A. S.
