The Missionary Map

The missionary map of the world should be in every schoolroom in this denomination. It can be purchased very cheaply from the treasurer of the General Conference, I. H. Evans, Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C.

The third angel’s message has been sounding in all the earth for a long time. Time is nearly finished, and yet there are great multitudes of people to hear of the soon coming of the Saviour. There is no feature of our school work that should be more thoroughly impressed upon the minds of the pupils in our schools than that they are to take part in this finishing work of the gospel in all the earth.

This map should be where they can continually see the great dark portions of the world where heathenism reigns supreme. If it is continually before them, they can but be deeply impressed with the great work to be done; and in view of the fact that time is so short, they need to be taught to seek the Lord for power with which to do this work.

Pictures are necessary and valuable for every schoolroom. The walls should be decorated tastefully and instructively; but there is no picture nor any decoration which will mean so much, and teach so worthy and valuable lessons, as will this missionary map of the world. Let our teachers and our school boards recognize the importance of having it in every schoolroom.
