Missionary Experience in Canon City, Colo.
By A. W. Beisel
WHILE the union evangelistic meetings were being held here, February 16-28, I improved the opportunity to take one of the Free Press Extra of the Protestant Magazine and give to Dr. E. J. Bulgin, asking him if he would not recommend the paper to his congregation, which he gladly did the same evening. I ordered five hundred copies and disposed of them as follows: One minister took two hundred and sold them to his members; another took fifty; one of our doctors and his wife took one hundred and handed them out to his patrons; and the rest of the papers I sold to whoever would buy them. After these were disposed of, I ordered fifty of the March Protestant, fifty of the Liberty Magazine, and twenty-five of the Signs of the Times Magazine, and sold them here and in Florence, Sister Mullinex helping me some in Florence. Whenever I met a Catholic who would not buy a Protestant Magazine, I sold him a Signs Magazine. I also sold one Protestant Magazine and one Signs Magazine to the Methodist minister in Florence, who spoke very highly of the former, and said that every true Protestant ought to read it. So we see what some of our good papers are doing.—A. W. Beisel, in Central Union Outlook, April 20, 1915.
