Progress in Spanish Fields

By N. Z. T.

We have just received the following encouraging item from Brother H. A. Robinson, of Mexico City:—

“This week Brother J. W. Phillips and I worked in the city. On Tuesday he took one hundred dollars’ worth of orders in a railroad office, and the next day seventy-five dollars’ worth. We thank the Lord for his many blessings, and are encouraged to do more for him.”

Argentina still stands at the head in the value of orders taken during a single week, but Mexico is following very closely behind. A young man in Argentina took 122 orders in twenty-eight hours; value, $322. Brother Brown writes from Mexico: “My report for last week was twenty-nine hours and 113 orders; value, $264, North American currency.” In seven weeks’ time, Brother Brown took orders and delivered books to the value of $1,566 Mexican. Others in Mexico are also doing

well. Brother J. E. Frazee, whose knowledge of the language is still limited, took $215 worth of orders in eighteen hours. In Mexico City, where the people told Brother Green, “You will never sell books in this large city,” two young men working twenty hours each took respectively $228 and $249 worth of orders.

Our hearts are made glad as we see how the Lord is blessing in the circulation of our literature among the Spanish-speaking people. N. Z. T.
