Brother Cottrell to China

Elder R. F. Cottrell, who for the past two years has been connected with South Lancaster Academy as Bible teacher, has been invited by the Mission Board to connect with the work in China. He and his wife expect now to leave South Lancaster the twenty-third of the present month, going by the Pacific route. They will spend one month in California, where Brother Cottrell's parents reside, going on the last of October. While feeling keenly the loss in personal association of Brother and Sister Cottrell, their many friends can not but rejoice that China's meager force of laborers will thus be strengthened by their connection with the work there. To this end may God richly bless them and make them a blessing in that great missionary field.

Those of our people desirous of obtaining an education should read Brother E. R. Palmer's article on page 20. The door to that opportunity is wide, many are entering, and the success of those who enter is almost phenomenal; and yet those whose success is reported in that article are just the ordinary young people to be found everywhere in the denomination. It is unquestionable that the Lord is setting the seal of his approval upon the work there outlined.
