BROTHER E. J. DRYER says in a report of tent work in West Pennsylvania: “It is too early to report anything definite concerning tent work in this conference, but we are glad to report a good interest in each place. A letter from Brother Schwartz reports a most favorable beginning at Sixmile Run in the southeastern part of the conference. Also a letter from Elder C. F. McVagh reports a very encouraging opening at Roulette, Potter County. Elder Watt, Brother Ned Ashton, and the writer began our effort in Erie last Sunday evening, and we had a most attentive audience.”

IN Oklahoma City, O. T., the truth is being proclaimed by preaching services in the church Sunday evenings, and by Bible readings and cottage meetings through the week. A report from Elder A. E. Field says: “As a result of the combined efforts of all the workers, there are usually at our meetings several who are interested in the truth. Four have united with the church in the last month, and others will soon follow. There are several to be baptized, but it has been put off on account of the muddy condition of the river. At present there are several in the valley of decision.”
