North American Division Statistical Report

THE statistical report of the North American Division Conference for the second quarter of the present year is now in print, and presents a very encouraging showing, both in denominational activities and in denominational finances. The report shows an increase of nearly two thousand members during the quarter, the membership for this division now standing at 75,436. Three thousand and twenty-five were baptized during the quarter; there was a gain of 474 in the number of canvassers and colporteurs, and a gain of 546 in the number of laborers. The tithe receipts showed a gain of $3,804 over the previous quarter, and the contributions to foreign missions (including Sabbath school donations) exceeded those of the previous quarter by $11,401. The book and periodical sales for the quarter show a gain of $48,439. The total of book and periodical sales for the quarter amounted to $208,463.34, which has been exceeded only twice since these reports have been published quarterly. For this good showing let us thank God, and press on to still greater things.
