Encouraging Reports from Loma Linda and Argentina

A RECENT letter from Elder J. A. Burden, the manager of the Loma Linda Sanitarium, brings the encouraging word that their net gain in operating for last year amounted to nearly six thousand dollars. Elder Burden writes: “The Lord has more than met our sanguine expectations. We had felt that if we could get through the year without running behind, it would be a great success. Work on the laboratory building is progressing; the basement and first and second floors are up. If there is no misfortune nor any delay on account of finances, the building will be ready for the opening of school the first of October. Everything on the farm looks encouraging.”
THE readers of the REVIEW will remember the case of the young man in Argentina who was whipped and then sentenced to a year's imprisonment for refusing to do military service on the Sabbath. As a result of his faithfulness, a knowledge of the truth came to many of the high officials in the Argentine government; and now word comes that a law has been passed by that government, freeing Adventist soldiers from military duty on the Sabbath, except in times of war.
