News and Notes

By N. Z. T.

BROTHER MAX TRUMMER writes, from Argentina, that during the first two weeks of the vacation his canvassers took 720 orders for our large books.

OUR workers in South America continue to meet with excellent success in the sale of our large subscription books. In a recent letter from Brother T. H. Davis, written from Chile, he says: “One of the boys broke the record on ‘Patriarchs and Prophets,’ taking 116 orders in Valdivia in twelve days, several of them for good bindings.”

THE following encouraging item is from Brother John L. Brown, written just after returning to his field in Mexico, from the bookmen’s convention in Mountain View, Cal. He says:—“How glad I am to be ‘at home’ again. I reached here safely and have been out telling the people something about ‘Salud y Hogar.’ I have worked eight hours, and during this time the Lord gave me twenty-eight orders for the cloth binding and three for the full leather. The bishop of Sonora listened to my first canvass, and was kind enough to give me his order for a leather binding. Three other priests of high rank follow him on the list. I next obtained the signature of the governor and other official men of the state. God has certainly blessed me in getting a good list started. I prayed that the Lord would prepare my heart to meet the people, and also prepare them to receive the message. I know he has heard me. I want to do more whole-hearted service for my Master, and be more faithful. This will bring success.”
