Missionary Work Among the Foreigners
By A. J. S. B.
At the recent Bookmen’s Convention held in this place, one of the field agents reported that the canvassers in his conference had set aside one day each week to visit the foreigners in the interests of our literature. By making up ten-cent and twenty-five-cent packages of tracts and pamphlets, some of the agents were able to dispose of as many as eight dollars’ worth in one day. These foreigners are eager to secure tracts and other cheap publications in their mother tongue. Those living near foreign settlements would do well to supply themselves with our excellent tracts, pamphlets, and small books issued in the various languages. Ask your conference tract society to send you the complete catalogue of foreign publications which has been issued by the New York branch of the Review and Herald. It is free for the asking.
