Preaching by Cable

By W. A. S.

THE Canadian correspondent of the London Times cabled to that paper this week a good paragraph on the Sunday bill before the Ottawa Parliament. He tells of the efforts of the government party to exempt Jews and Seventh-day Adventists, of the defeat of the exemption clause, and of the warm discussion proceeding on the whole question. The Times is the famous organ of high-class and government circles in England, and thus by cable the truth is borne witness to in quarters seldom reached by our own effort. The very name of Seventh-day Adventist is a testimony for the truth. It is surprising to see in traveling how the mention of that name challenges attention and arouses inquiry. Yet so the spirit of prophecy said it would be, at the time when our brethren adopted that name. As these issues develop all over the world, the cables will be used to carry the news that Seventh-day Adventists stand as witnesses for God’s own Sabbath.
