An Appeal and a Report

THAT we may more rapidly advance the work of the third angel's message in the maritime provinces of Canada, we are straining every nerve in an endeavor to start a small school for the training of young men and women. We have secured the services of Elder and Mrs. E. E. Gardner, of Iowa, as teachers. We have also secured the co-operation of the General Conference in the raising of two thousand dollars for the erection of a building that will accommodate about thirty students. A part of this has already been raised, but we are in pressing need of six hundred dollars more at once, to meet the expense of material. We must build this year, but as we must not run in debt, we can not build till we have the money.
Brother, sister, have you done anything for this needy field? Could you welcome those saved from this field as those for whom you had given toil and earthly treasure? May I lead them to you, in the new earth, as the reward for the travail of your soul—your crown of rejoicing?
“We are nearing the close of this earth's history; soon we shall stand before the great white throne. Soon your time for work will be forever past.”—‘Testimonies,’ Vol. VII, page 15; also read Vol. VIII, pages 32, 33.
Send your offerings to the treasurer of the General Conference, Takoma Park Station, Washington, D. C., stating that they are for the Maritime School Fund.
