A Good Way for a Field Agent to Begin

LAST year Brother A. R. Sherman was sent to Argentina, South America, to take charge of the colporteur work in the Argentine Conference. Regarding his experience after reaching the field, Brother Sherman writes:—
“I have had charge of the work since July. Before this I was canvassing by myself. I started in to canvass two weeks after getting here. Of course, I did not know much about the language, but I learned my canvass. Brother Trummer went with me two days, and then I went alone. The Lord blessed me from the start, and in 88 days I delivered 2,250 pesos’ (over $950) worth of ‘Coming King’ and ‘Patriarchs and Prophets.’ I have found out this: that when we consecrate our lives to the service of God and are willing to do our part, the Lord is willing to bless wherever we are. I felt that I needed some experience before I took charge of the work. Now I can be of much more help to the boys since I have made a success of the work in this field.”
