Back in the Philippines

By R. A. Caldwell

MANILA.— Since returning from Australia, I have had many blessed experiences. As it is the cool season, I have taken some provincial trips, working with four different books in five provinces. Some of the books, being new to me, I had not sold before, even in English. In returning from a recent tour I spent eight and one-half hours on the train, securing in that time five signatures. With one of our health books my record for two weeks was one hundred and twenty orders. For two days I worked in the towns with “Patriarchs and Prophets,” taking sixteen orders one day, and seventeen the other. Most of these were taken at government headquarters. Now is the time, while a stable government exists, to sow the seeds of truth in this barren field. The per cent of my orders I am able to deliver here compares very favorably with my recent work in Sydney.
