Sabbath, September 28

By MRS. L. FLORA PLUMMER

A GREAT privilege is given to the Sabbath-schools in the home land on September 28. It is the privilege of providing mission homes for our workers in China. It is estimated that these homes will cost, on an average, one thousand dollars apiece. How many homes can we build with this one day's offering? The Sabbath-schools will answer this question.

Four cottages have already been erected in China, and one in Korea. Of these Elder I. H. Evans writes:—

“We are indeed grateful that we have been able to make a beginning in providing homes for our workers in the East. To be sure, it is only a beginning, but it gives promise of better days for our workers, and longer service in the cause of God. The price of these homes will soon be more than saved in the extra time the laborers can remain at their work each year. Other homes will be provided as soon as funds are available. Our workers are pleased with their homes, and are most grateful to our brethren and sisters in the home land, who by their self-sacrifice have supplied means with which to erect the buildings.”

Remember the date.

Remember to plan to give liberally.

Remember to report correctly the amount and the purpose for which it is given.
