Missions Number Raises Funds; Workers Sail for China

ELDER R. A. UNDERWOOD, president of the Northern Union Conference, recently stated that our English church in Minneapolis, Minn., had ordered about twenty-eight hundred copies of the MISSIONS number of the REVIEW. Although not all of these had been circulated, the total collections amounted to $434.96. The church-members were glad to know that they could already turn over nearly four hundred dollars in excess of the cost of the papers. He writes, “We expect they will bring in enough more to make five hundred dollars raised by this church alone. Probably not more than fifty or sixty took an active part in this movement.” We shall be glad to receive reports from some of our other large churches.

A SMALL party set sail for China on the seventh, from San Francisco. Elder J. N. Anderson, who came to the General Conference, returns, leaving his family on furlough in this country for some further time. With him, as new recruits, sailed Brother George Harlow and wife, of Western Washington, and Brother Otis J. Fisher, wife, and child, of Southern California. We thank God as every new recruit enters these vast fields.
