Work in Harmony.

By Editor

A FRIEND asks for advice in regard to the matter of canvassing for the SIGNS, and wishes to know if he had better select a place which he thinks would be suitable for tent labor, and thoroughly canvass it. We suggest that before he does this he counsel with some experienced minister who labors with a tent in his State, or with the Committee of his Conference, in regard to the time and manner of canvassing in such a place. It might be very important to canvass the place at the proper time if a tent is expected to go there. And it is best to counsel and so understand what are the prospects of a tent going to that place. Our work will always be more satisfactory to ourselves and to others, and be more effective, if there is a mutual understanding between those who are in any wise connected in their labors.
