The Summary

By A. J. S. B.

OUR fourth monthly summary of magazine sales shows quite a loss as compared with the August sales. This is easily explained by the fact that hundreds of our student agents have left the field and entered upon their school work.

If the thousands of Seventh-day Adventists who are not engaged in the Master's work will now step in to fill the ranks previously filled by our student agents, the summary of sales will increase steadily month by month.

As will be seen, our September sales fall short of the August sales by 72,103 copies, valued at $7,210.30. The cessation of the efforts of our students is thus equivalent to depriving the reading public of the benefits of nearly one month's circulation of two of our magazines—for instance, Life and Health and The Watchman.

The sales in the Canadian Union Conferences are reported under one head. Next time we hope to report the sales in each of these union conferences as separate items.

An agency for any of our ten-cent magazines means interesting home missionary work, good wages, and ready money day by day for any intelligent Seventh-day Adventist. Pick out the magazine you desire to handle, send one dollar to your conference tract society for twenty-five copies, and begin work as soon as possible. You will be more than pleased with what you are able to accomplish in this pleasant and profitable work. A. J. S. B.
