More Help for the Religious Liberty Department

By Arthur G. Daniells

WHEN arrangements were made to release Elder K. C. Russell from the Religious Liberty Department to engage in city evangelistic work, it was arranged to have Elder C. S. Longacre connect with the work of the department. It has taken some time to secure Brother Longacre’s release from South Lancaster Academy. His administration of the affairs of the academy had been highly satisfactory, and the school was enjoying the largest patronage of its history. The academy board did not wish to release Brother Longacre, but consented to do so as soon as a satisfactory successor could be secured.
The requirement of the board has just been met by the return of Prof. B. F. Machlan from Australia. Owing to some affection which threatened the loss of Brother Machlan’s hearing, he was advised by specialists to leave for a colder climate. He has just returned, and has taken the principalship of South Lancaster Academy.
On the seventh of this month Brother Longacre left South Lancaster for the North Pacific Union Conference, to take part in a strong religious liberty campaign which has just been launched in that union.
We are glad to have secured this additional help for the religious liberty work in particular, and the administrative work in general. The Lord has blessed Brother Longacre’s labors in different lines of endeavor, and we believe he will be of much service to the cause in the department to which he has now been called. A. G. DANIELLS.
