Our Mexican Spanish Papers

By Editor

IN consequence of the unsettled conditions existing in Mexico, greatly interrupting the mail service throughout the republic and particularly to other countries, it was recently decided to transfer the publication of our two Spanish papers from Mexico City to the Review and Herald Publishing Association, Takoma Park, D. C. These papers are Las Señales de los Tiempos (Signs of the Times), a monthly missionary journal, and El Amigo de los Niños, a little paper published in the interest of Spanish-speaking children. Prof. G. W. Caviness returned from the council at Loma Linda to take charge of this work, and since then Sister Caviness has come to Washington to carry on her work as editor of the children's paper. The publication of these papers will be continued here until settled conditions warrant their being returned to the Mexican capital.

Brother and Sister Caviness have very bravely and faithfully stood at their post in Mexico through the long, trying revolutionary periods. Against the advice of their friends they have exposed themselves to danger in order to conserve the interests of the work which has been built up in that republic. Much against their desires, but because they cannot carry on their publishing work from Mexico City, they are here in Washington, earnestly longing for the time when they can again return to the field which has become endeared to them through long years of earnest, sacrificing labor.
