Findings

Dr. R. H. Harris, of Battle Creek, Mich., and Dr. H. B. Knapp, superintendent of the Pennsylvania Sanitarium, were welcome visitors at the General Conference offices lately.

Dr. W. C. Dunscombe and wife called at the office last week, on their way East, and to visit friends for a few days before leaving to connect with the sanitarium at Kobe, Japan.

Dr. Leota Holland, lady physician in the Philadelphia (Pa.) Sanitarium, and Mrs. D. T. Harbaugh, who is attending the Woman's Medical College in that city, spent a short vacation visiting our institutions and other points of interest in Washington, the past week.

In a letter lately received from Dr. L. W. Starr, of Loma Linda, Cal., she says: “I am now doing some work in the church at San Bernardino along health lines, and I am deeply interested in this phase of work. We visit the families of our people and get them to invite their neighbors and friends. The outside people are ready for this health work, and have manifested much interest, although our sisters say that they will not hear a word on religious subjects. We are praying that this may open the way for some to receive the whole message.”

On account of ill health it has been necessary that Dr. C. C. Nicola be relieved of his duties in connection with the New England Sanitarium, Melrose, Mass. For years he has worked earnestly for the interests of that institution, and through his efforts, under God, this sanitarium has come to be one of the largest of our denominational institutions. Dr. C. O. Prince, of South Lancaster, Mass., has been chosen to the position as superintendent of the New England Sanitarium, and has entered upon his duties. We hope and trust that Dr. Nicola will so improve in health that he can soon join us again in the great work with which he has been so intimately associated for many years.

It is with deep regret that we announce the withdrawal of Dr. G. T. Harding, Jr., from the sanitarium work in Washington. For nearly two years Dr. Harding has done very efficient work in the Washington Branch Sanitarium, as its superintendent. He has worked with untiring energy for the advancement of the interests of the institution, and has succeeded, with a corps of faithful workers, in building up the institution and placing it upon a solid basis, spiritually, professionally, and financially. Dr. Harding, Jr., disconnects from the Washington work at the call of his father, Dr. G. T. Harding, Sr., who for years has had a large practise in Ohio, and needs the help of his son. Dr. Harding leaves the work in Washington with the determination to pursue the same lines in his new field in harmony with the work with which he has been connected for the past few years. We wish Dr. Harding much of the Lord’s blessing in his work. The superintendency of the Washington Branch Sanitarium devolves upon Dr. J. H. Neall, who has been connected with the institution since its beginning.
