By K. C. Russell

PHILADELPHIA.—On my way from Washington to South Lancaster to attend the Atlantic Union Conference, I stopped over the evening of November 10 in Philadelphia, and spoke at the West Philadelphia church, where the congregation consisted of members from both the North and West Philadelphia churches. It was a satisfaction to meet once more with the people in this city, especially with the many believers who have embraced the truth during the past summer as the result of the tent-meetings which were conducted by Elder O. O. Bernstein and his faithful coworkers. Besides those who have taken their stand for the truth, there are a number of others who are in the valley of decision. Let the readers remember this latter class in their prayers, for it means an exercise of strong faith for these souls, in the face of apparent loss of positions, at the beginning of a long and cold winter, to take their stand for the Sabbath of the Lord. Those who are taking this step by faith should remember that accompanying every command of God is a pledge of divine power to sustain them in their obedience. Without the blessed assurance that Christ will uphold every trembling soul in the noble purpose to obey him, all would be darkness. Our earnest prayer is that the work, not only in Philadelphia, but in all the Eastern cities, may be attended with a great harvest of souls.
