The Summary

By E. R. P.

It has been a fitting cause for great rejoicing among us as a people that the year 1908, a year of perplexities and depression, should prove to be our banner year in the circulation of literature.
A blessed fact, which has always been a fact, notwithstanding the weakness and unbelief of many of God's children, was victoriously re-established. Our faith so easily falters, our eyesight is so short, that we need such experiences to remind us that God still lives and reigns in the affairs of this world.
Statistics for 1908 are not fully made up, but sufficient has been received to show that the distribution of literature during 1908 reached a value fully a quarter of a million dollars above any previous year in the history of this movement. The sales will amount approximately to one million three hundred thousand dollars.
In the light of this fact, it will be interesting to study the summary, and the comparative summary, to see how the work is starting out this year as compared with the last. E. R. P.
