The Missions “Review”

By T. E. Bowen

THE orders are coming in for the new Harvest Ingathering REVIEW.

The Southern California Conference has placed for its first order, all the papers going in one consignment,— a big truck load of them,— 34,300 copies. A further order supplements this, bringing its orders up to about 35,000. The secretary writes that fifty thousand and possibly more will be used by that conference this autumn. This is a splendid order, surely.

It is time that all initial orders were being sent in by conference committees. It is perhaps just a little early for these orders to be on hand here in Washington but not for activity in making them up out in the field.

The opportunity of our lives is here. The terrible European struggle continues. The providence of the Lord places us without the war zone, not for idleness, but the rather that we may help make up that which our brethren in Europe are unable to give.

Every heart should be made willing in this hour of opportunity, every hand active, fully consecrated, meet for the Master's use. Do not neglect to order your Ingathering supplies of your conference office just now, and you surely will want more this year than ever before.

We hope no church will overlook the Harvest Ingathering program prepared for Sabbath, September 26. This will be found in the Church Officers' Gazette, and should be used in every church, large or small, that day. T. E. BOWEN.
