Missionary Review and German Union Tithe

THE Missionary Review of the World for March is a most interesting number. Among the most important articles in this number is one on “The Liberal Movement in Persia,” by the Rev. S. M. Jordan, of Teheran. Mr. Jordan discusses the progress toward reform, and the various political and religious factors, which are changing the policy of the government and the characters of the people. It is an illuminating article. The editor-in-chief describes “Gipsy Smith and His Successful Evangelism” in a way which shows the sources of strength and secrets of power in this remarkable man who is doing such a wonderful work in England and America. Two illustrated articles on Cuba deal with its religious conditions and present need. One discusses the Indians of Central America, and two relate to serious problems in the United States. The Rev. MacLain W. Davis, of Utah, describes “The Practical Results of Mormonism” as he has seen them. Rev. Frederick H. Wright takes up the question of “The Italian in America,” showing the characteristics of this people and the opportunities for work among them. Two remarkable articles tell of the “Awakenings among the Chinese Aborigines.” Published monthly by Funk & Wagnalls Co., 44-60 East Twenty-third Street, New York; $2.50 a year.

WE learn that the tithe of the German Union Conference for the first three quarters of 1906 was fifty-eight thousand dollars, or four thousand dollars more than for the entire year of 1905.
