Edition Exhausted, But—
By W. E. HOWELL
Orders for the Summer Campaign number of Christian Education continue to come in from the schools. The contents of this number are evidently having some effect upon our young people who ought to be in school. At headquarters here three young people have made up their minds to attend school next year, largely as the result of reading this number. Those who are making use of this issue at our camp-meetings and elsewhere in the field, send in excellent reports. Here is the roll of the schools that have placed orders, ranging from 100 to 1,200 copies:— Union College, Foreign Mission Seminary, Keene Academy, Graysville Academy, Beechwood Academy, Manson Academy, Mount Vernon College, Walla Walla College. We wish this good work could go on, but we are obliged to announce that the It can not be justly said that it is the fault of the publishers; for they ran two editions, amounting to more than three times the regular list. The editors did not have courage to ask for more than this. It is hoped that their lack of faith will be pardoned this time; for doubtless many more of this live number could and would be used. We are happy to announce that it is almost time for a new number to appear, and that we can promise contents as timely and helpful to the conscientious reader as are those of the Campaign number. It is not sufficient to get students into school, but the vital work really begins after they arrive. It is indispensable to success that the student and the teacher start right in the new year, and “Start Right” is the key-note to the September-October number. Do not fail to procure and read a copy of it. This journal will grow in value with each succeeding number. Both publishers and editors are of good courage, and the surest way for you to gain the greatest good from their efforts, is to become a subscriber, and to induce others to do likewise.
