Battle Creek

By E. W. Farnsworth

THERE are many in this city who are desirous of heeding the instruction the Lord has given in reference to leaving this place. Some of them have lived here a long time, and have little knowledge of the openings in other places where they may gain a livelihood.

On behalf of these brethren and sisters we wish to invite our people who may know of favorable openings, to write to the clerk of the Battle Creek church, and briefly describe any situation they may have to offer. Write the particulars so that the ones receiving them may form a reasonably clear idea of the situations offered.

There are in Battle Creek quite a number of carpenters and builders, several engineers and machinists, two or three bakers of long experience, two or three ladies who have had experience as and matrons, several shorthand reporters and typists, several accountants, nurses, bath hands and helpers, both ladies and gentlemen. There are some who have had experience as book canvassers and colporteurs, besides many who have lived here and earned their living in different avocations, as many people do in cities of this size.

These people are conscientious brethren and sisters. They believe the truth and the messages that God has sent his people, and for this reason they desire to remove to other localities where they may carry the light of truth for this time, I am sure our brethren will appreciate the perplexity in which these brethren and sisters find themselves, and will be glad to extend to them the helping hand. Address all communications to Mr. A. L. Bayley, Battle Creek, Mich., in care of Review and Herald.
