The Summer Assembly at Berrien Springs, Mich.

THE summer assembly at Berrien Springs, Mich., from June 12 to August 20, offers unusual advantages to every person who desires to join the corps of laborers who are working for the salvation of children and youth, in the day school and in the Sabbath school.
Two thousand teachers ought to be in the field this coming year. We are told that there are persons to fill every position as soon as the way is prepared for them. The summer school is the means offered to prepare these teachers. Not only is the opportunity offered by the summer assembly at Berrien Springs for teachers to become more efficient in their work, but the beautiful surroundings will enable them to pursue their studies, at the same time obtaining rest and renewed vigor for another year.
The expense of the summer training is often a heavy burden to teachers, who feel that they can ill afford to spend the money required. But this difficulty is largely removed for all qualified students who wish to take the training offered at Berrien Springs this summer. The Educational Department of the General Conference, the Lake Union Conference, and Emmanuel Missionary College have united in bearing the financial burdens of a thorough training for ten weeks. Tuition and tents, with furniture, are offered free. Board will be served on the European plan.
Associated with the course for teachers, will be an excellent course for Christian business men and stenographers. There is a great dearth at present of earnest, consecrated persons to work in these two branches of God’s cause. The General Conference has arranged for a strong course of instruction that will speedily and thoroughly prepare the right kind of persons to do efficient work in these lines. The advantages offered to the teachers are also extended to the last-named class of students.
