The Work in Washington
By J. S. WASHBURN
THOSE who help to increase the circulation of the REVIEW will greatly assist in building up the institutions to be established in Washington. Articles will often appear in the REVIEW giving a full description of the situation here, of the progress of the work, the donations received, and the future needs of the work. You will see at once that all who increase the list of readers are directly assisting in this important move. The Washington institutions will be denominational. The denomination will own and control them. They will not be controlled by stock companies. No man outside of the organization will have a controlling voice, as would surely be possible if stock companies conducted them. No extravagant buildings will be erected for display. We are directly instructed that the buildings “must be solid and well constructed,” that they are to be “thoroughly presentable, but no extravagance is to be seen.” Up to the present date, March 8, the sum of $3,144.57 has been received for the purpose of building up these institutions; $25,000 is needed by the first of May. Who feels moved by the Lord to donate $1,000 to head the published list? All who desire more fully to understand the present situation in Washington, D. C., are referred to the article on page 7.
