Field Notes

A RECENT report from Hutchinson, Kan., states that about forty persons are in attendance at the missionary school which is being conducted there.

BROTHER T. W. FIELDS reports from Madge, Tex.: “We have a church school in good running order at this place. The brethren are wonderfully encouraged by the success of the school. Brother Nathan Willis is teacher. We also have a good church building finished.”

BROTHER J. F. POGUE is conducting meetings in a hall in the city of Minneapolis, the attendance, which has at times reached the number of one hundred and fifty, showing that there is a good interest on the part of the people to hear. The Minneapolis church is actively co-operating with him in the work.

BROTHER C. P. WHITFORD makes this the report of work done in several towns in southern Florida since the beginning of the year: “I have conducted 59 meetings, made 75 visits, disposed of 14 copies of ‘Christ’s Object Lessons,’ sold 16 Bibles, 12 copies of ‘Christ in Song,’ one of ‘Hymns and Tunes,’ one of ‘Early Writings,’ one of ‘Helps to Bible Study,’ 2 of ‘Sunday in History,’ one Bible Text-Book, and have given away 426 pages of tracts, 61 papers, and received 41 subscriptions to periodicals.”

BROTHER H. F. COURTER reports having held a short series of meetings near Red Oak, Ga. He says: “I held meetings in a schoolhouse. The people turned out well, considering the weather. A fair interest was manifested. The last night I was there, several gave themselves publicly to the Lord, to keep his Sabbath and fully consecrate themselves to him. I was called away from this place to attend a meeting for counsel and plans concerning the proposed sanitarium in Atlanta.”
