General Notes

Near Albia, Iowa, a three weeks' course of meetings has been held in a schoolhouse, conducted by G. A. Larson and A. R. Shrake. As a result two have announced that they will keep the Sabbath.

Elder G. W. Anglebarger reports from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, that five persons were baptized by him there March 9, and are now identified with those who are holding up the standard of divine truth in that place.

Two ladies of Waterford, Ohio, have taken a stand for the truth as the result of meetings held with the Waterford church by Elder L. C. Sheafe. An unusually deep spiritual interest is reported to have been developed in that place.

Through the faithful labors of two lady members of the church at Wellington, Kan., assisted by a few meetings conducted by Elder Parmele, sixteen souls have been recently added to the company in that place, nearly all of them being adults. At Newton, three additions to the church were made under the labors of Elder Parmele in the latter part of January.

Brother J. J. Graf, who has been holding Bible readings for about five weeks in the town of Hector, Minn., reports that one family there has accepted the truth as the result of his labors. From the town of Sleepy Eye, a worker reports that “one of our neighbors, a lady of rare intelligence, has accepted the Sabbath this winter by reading ‘Thoughts on Daniel and the Revelation.’”
