The Next Special Effort

By Editor

On Sabbath, October 2, comes the annual offering for the work among the colored people of the South. We should plan definitely for liberal gifts at this time. The organization of the new department for work among the colored people has brought new courage to our workers in the South, and has brought into the field those who are giving special attention to the organization and extension of this work. Let church officers call attention to this coming offering, so that all may be prepared.

We were glad to greet in Washington last week Elder F. I. Richardson, who has come from Southern California to accept the presidency of the Chesapeake Conference. He will make his home in Baltimore, where the conference office is located. Elder Richardson was for years in missionary service abroad, in the West Indies and South Africa.
