In Japan

Review and Herald Publishing Association · Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C. · Nov 3, 1910

From Kobe, Japan, comes the following encouraging word of progress:—

“Doctor Noma and the workers at the sanitarium are very busy now, and they are all of good courage. They have made many friends by their faithful work. One patient has rented a piece of ground, and given the use of it for five years to the sanitarium. Another man is paying for an advertisement for them for a whole year, in the best and largest circulated paper in Japan. The principles so faithfully carried out by the workers here have found an entrance into the hearts and homes of the people. Some are showing an interest in the truth.”

“Several doctors have become interested in the work. One has sent a nurse to the sanitarium to receive a thorough training in hydrotherapy, massage, and dietetics. Another

doctor is asking for instruction in hygienic cookery and in dietetics. Another is so interested in our methods that he comes frequently from his home, twenty miles away, to receive instruction. He shows great interest in all our work, and now desires to go to America for a course of study in one of our institutions. “God is blessing the medical work in Japan, and we are thankful that we have this part in his great work to help carry forward the message in this dark land.”
