A Good Word From the Southwest

By N. Z. T.

ACCOMPANYING his report for September, Elder W. W. Eastman, general agent of the Southwestern Union, sends the following good word:—
“Here we are again with our report, which is a little more than double what it was last September. Our deliveries for the same time have amounted to over $11,200. Our fall deliveries have been excellent. We never had such an experience before. Most of our agents are having no trouble in delivering their books. The people seem as anxious to get them as the canvassers are to deliver them. I have just been helping two canvassers here in Memphis. They are delivering one hundred per cent of their orders, and selling some copies besides.
“This morning I happened to meet an old friend in the post-office, who insisted that I take dinner with him. He is now a business man in this city. After dinner, he inquired about our work. As we were on our way down-town, he said: ‘Well, I want those books. What is the price?’ I told him, and he said: ‘Bring me a copy of each this afternoon to the store.’ I shall take him a copy of ‘Daniel and the Revelation,’ ‘Bible Readings,’ and ‘Ministry of Healing.’ A banker called to one of our canvassers from his automobile yesterday while passing on the street, saying, ‘Bring meone of your books to-morrow to the bank.’ ‘Daniel and the Revelation’ was delivered to him this morning. Truly we are in the day of God’s power.”
