Publishing House Dedication

A LETTER from Brother C. H. Jones, president of the Pacific Press Publishing Association, announces the dedication of their International Branch office on October 4. Brother Jones says:—

“Our International Branch office and factory at Brookfield, Ill., is finished, and machinery and equipment are now being installed. It is expected everything will be in good running order on or before the first of October.”

“We have a fine two-story building, fifty-five by eighty-five feet, well furnished for the purpose for which it was intended; and now we desire to have it dedicated to the service of the Lord. It has been decided to hold the dedicatory exercises on Wednesday, October 4. We desire to make this an occasion long to be remembered.”

“Our foreign work is developing rapidly and assuming large proportions. We see a large future before our International Branch. We confidently expect that this move from College View to Brookfield is going to mark a new era for our foreign work in this country. We have set the dedication for October 4, so that those from the West who attend the General Conference Council meeting at Washington October 11-24, can attend our exercises without additional traveling expenses.”

“Thursday, October 5, we plan to have a council concerning the needs of our foreign work, what papers to issue, in what languages, etc.”
