D. H. OBERHOLTZER

By D. H. Oberholtzer

Wisconsin

It has been a long time since I have written a report for the REVIEW. I notice that it contains many new names. This says to me that the message is advancing.

A number of years ago I had a nervous breakdown. This, with other combinations, made it necessary for me to retire from active labor. I did so, and moved with my family to northern Wisconsin, in order to get the benefit of the life-laden atmosphere of this region, and also the pure, soft water with which this country is blessed. With these two remedies, an abundance of outdoor exercise, and the blessing of God, a three-years' stay here has apparently restored me to perfect health. For this I praise the Lord continually. With my experience, I would advise any one in like condition to come here and rest awhile. Thus the Saviour instructed his disciples of old; and there are many now sleeping who, had they heeded this admonition, might still be of service to the Master; for the Lord has need of those who have grown gray in his vineyard to still do important service.

My heart was made to rejoice that as soon as I reported for duty, the Lord had work for me. I shall enter the field with strong faith and courage that I shall be able to help close up this message; and if I can not stand in the very front rank, I hope to be able to hold up the hands of others.

My address is Madison, Wis., care sanitarium. My field of labor is the southwest part of the State. I ask to be remembered in the prayers of the dear brethren and sisters, that I may be faithful to the end.
