Williamsdale (N. S.) Academy

By J. O. Miller

We are glad to report a prosperous season for the Williamsdale Academy the past year. The school closed with its full number of students, with the exception of three who were called home. Sabbath, May 6, seven of the students went forward in baptism, and united with the church. These, with three who had previously been baptized and joined the church, make ten who have given themselves to the Lord and his work this year.

While at times the work in this northern field seems to move slowly, God has some precious souls here. Two of our graduates, Mr. R. A. Hubley and his wife, started for their new field of labor in Newfoundland, May 29. We are glad that the time has come when we can begin to help supply the needy fields near us.

Our prospects are bright for a full school next year. We have added to our force of teachers, and Miss Therese Barrett, of Cape Britton, and Miss O. M. Russell, of South Lancaster, Mass., will connect with the school next year. Both are teachers of some experience. We urge all parents in the Maritime field to see that their boys and girls are sent to the academy next winter. Any who may desire a calendar will receive the same by writing to Prof. J. L. Stansbury, Williamsdale, East, Nova Scotia.

Brethren, remember the Maritime Conference in your prayers. We need your support in this way very much.
