Canvassers’ Work and British Press Bureau

By Editor

The summary of the canvassers' work for July, which appears in this issue, is the best yet published. The Southwestern Union Conference, which includes only three local conferences, leads the list of conferences in this country in the value of orders reported, Oklahoma alone reporting about the same as one of our largest union conferences. This revival of the book work is most encouraging, and we certainly hope that it is permanent. Examine the summary on the seventeenth page.

As the press of Great Britain gives more and more attention to the agitation by the churches of the Sunday observance question, our brethren there have appointed an informal press bureau to take advantage of every opportunity to set the facts of the controversy before the public. Fifty-five members, living in various parts of the kingdom, are specially watching one hundred and twenty leading newspapers, and many good paragraphs, articles, and letters have been published, reaching thousands of readers.
