Tracts.

By James White

I am glad to see the interest taken in the circulation of our tracts by those whose donations to the tract fund are seen from week to week receipted in the Review. But these receipts should have the company of many larger as well as small sums. The work is important.

In the vicinity of Wright, I design to circulate ten or fifteen dollars’ worth. Bro. E. Stafford is a member of this church, and is collector in his township. He asks for tracts to give to his townsmen as he meets them to receive their tax money. I have sent an order to the Office for tracts to be sent to him by mail. I shall order $100 worth to circulate in Michigan where we travel. Brethren in Michigan and elsewhere, send in your donations to the tract fund, and let them be judiciously circulated. Ministers know best how to do this. If others besides ministers have local interests to serve in this direction, let them purchase tracts and give away all they choose.

On leaving Bro. and Sr. Buck, of the Wright church, yesterday morning, they handed us $10 with which to do good. We decide to appropriate one-half to the tract fund. JAMES WHITE.
