Notes from the Central Union Conference
By O. E. Cummings
“THE motto of every missionary should be, ‘Devoted for life.’” Brethren Owen and Allen, of Union College, have recently joined Colorado’s corps of canvassers. These brethren are successful workers for “The Desire of Ages” and “Home Hand Book.” Brother Jencks reports that Nebraska’s book sales for May reached two thousand dollars, exclusive of “Christ’s Object Lessons.” This has been accomplished not by numbers, but by the blessing of God upon faithfulness and devotion. “Prayer and pains through faith in Christ Jesus will do anything.” Sister Ida Sutton, of Union College, and Mamie Jones, of Omaha, are pleasantly located in Glenwood, Iowa. They are canvassing for “The Coming King.” This is their first experience as canvassers. Brother Surber secured seven canvassers for Kansas at the close of Union College. We look for encouraging reports from that State. Brother C. W. Hardesty, recently transferred from Arkansas to Iowa, finds plenty of hard work in advancing canvassing interests in his new territory. Eleven canvassers have recently begun the work in Iowa. Nearly all are from Union College. O. E. CUMMINGS,
