TO THE SCANDINAVIANS

By George A. Irwin

THERE have been several inquiries as to whether there will be editions of “Christ’s Object Lessons” printed in the Swedish and Danish languages. We are glad to announce that this good book will be printed in both these languages, and that the translators are now hard at work upon the manuscript. Exactly when these editions will be ready for delivery, we can not say at this time; but we hope to have the Danish translation, at least, within the course of two months, possibly it may be ready earlier. The Swedish edition will be a little later. We trust that our Scandinavian brethren will remember this, and that they will wait to purchase the book in their own language. All the proceeds from the book in the Scandinavian languages will go to help the Scandinavian publishing house.
A SMALL leaflet of sixteen pages, prepared by the General Conference Committee, containing a brief statement of the financial condition of the Christiania Publishing house and the propositions that have been submitted to its creditors, also an appeal by Sister White in behalf of the work in Scandinavia, has just been published. The leaflet will be sent out to ministers, licentiates, Bible workers, church elders, and isolated Sabbath-keepers. It is the plan to place a copy in each Seventh-day Adventist family, so that opportunity may be had for its careful reading at home.
I trust that the appeal written by Sister White may receive special consideration, and that each one may be impressed thereby to do all he can to lift this institution out of its embarrassment. It is not only the publishing house in Christiania, but it is the Lord’s cause that is at stake. Self-denial and earnestness on the part of each one just now, will turn the tide and bring victory; so let us all show our appreciation of the truth, and our devotion to the cause of God at large, by a liberal offering during the Week of Prayer.
