Badge for “Signs” Workers

By C. H. Jones

In response to the earnest requests from some of our agents, we have prepared a neat little silk badge to be worn by those engaged in selling the Signs of the Times on the street or from house to house.
This badge serves a double purpose—first, as an introduction to the people, and second, showing that the person wearing it is authorized by the publishers to take subscriptions.
These badges will be furnished free to all taking a club of fifty or more copies weekly, and can be had for the asking.
Some of our agents are taking as many as three hundred copies of the Signs weekly, and report excellent success in selling them. Some sell them on the street and from house to house, while others have regular customers to whom they deliver the papers weekly. The secretary of one of our conferences writes as follows:—
“At a recent meeting of the conference committee it was voted to employ several persons in the paper work, the conference furnishing as many as three hundred to each individual a week. We hope this will create an interest and a desire on the part of many individuals to become permanent workers, and also that it may be the means of bringing the light of present truth to the hearts of many who are in darkness. The times are intensely interesting from the standpoint of the message which the Signs bears, and we certainly have but little time left to finish the gospel work and prepare for the coming of the Lord. We desire to unite with you in every line of work that will be to the advancement of the message.”
Other conferences are employing agents in the same way, and we hope to see a large number engaged in this good work before the close of the year. Now is a favorable time to begin, as on May 1 the first number of the Gospel Series of twenty-six special numbers will appear, and there will be something intensely interesting in each issue.
All persons who are taking fifty copies or more of the Signs of the Times weekly are requested to notify the publishers if they desire one of the badges already referred to. Address Signs of the Times, Mountain View, Cal.
