The Georgia Institute

WE are much encouraged with the progress of the canvassing work in Georgia the present year. God has blessed us, and thousands of pages of our literature have been disposed of. Our canvassers have enjoyed a good experience, and God has supported them while they labored.
We held several institutes during the year, and as a result more workers entered the field, and many more books were sold. Now we are planning to hold another institute in the near future, and I hope that all who are engaged in evangelistic canvassing will plan to attend. Excellent help will be present, and we mean to spare no pains in making it interestingand profitable to all who may attend. Those thinking of coming South to engage in this work, will find it helpful to join us in the institute, and receive the blessing and experience that may be obtained at this time.
It is not necessary for me to mention the need of workers here, and the importance of getting our literature into the homes of the people. We have county after county that, so far as we know, has never been entered with our publications, and many cities are in great need of workers. Our canvassers are meeting with success in selling our books, large and small. Where are the consecrated men and women who will enter these needy fields? Who will respond?
Those contemplating coming South would do well to confer with some of the officers of the field. A few, led to come South by flattering prospects presented by well-meaning people, have been disappointed. There are many kinds of work to be carried on here; but we do not present riches as an inducement, except the riches of Christ Jesus, found in laboring for souls.
Our institute is to be held Jan. 13-26, 1909, in Atlanta. If there are those who desire a part in this good work in Georgia, further information regarding the institute and the condition of the work, may be obtained by writing our field agent, A. L. Manous, 54 Beecher St., Atlanta, Ga., or the writer, 105 Cherokee Ave., Atlanta, Ga.
