In the Eastern Union Conference
By P. T. Magan
A GOOD revival of the spirit to sell “Christ’s Object Lessons” is on in the Eastern Union Conference. The example of the Lake Union Conference is proving a blessing, and appearances now bid fair to see every one of our school debts wiped out before the close of the year. Elder A. E. Place, president of the New England Conference, reports that all his laborers are in the field at this work, “with some signs of fever for the closing battle.” He further states that some of these brethren have already sold from one to two hundred copies, and are ordering as many more. Some of the New England churches have already204sold their quota, and one of them has sold three times its quota, and is still selling books. This last is a splendid, Christian record. Professor Griggs, the principal of the South Lancaster Academy, is planning to call all his students together, and organize them for the work. They intend to follow the example of the students of Emmanuel Missionary College, and keep at work until their full quota is disposed of. Elder E. E. Miles made a pledge to sell one hundred copies, and states that he is “having the pleasure of seeing them melt away.” The work is being thoroughly organized and systematized. The territory is being divided, and leading ministers are by precept and example teaching the people the blessing of selling “Christ’s Object Lessons.” P. T. MAGAN.
