Missionary Workers Return and Depart
Brother C. B. Hughes and his family have returned to America after a stay of over five years in Australia. During this time Brother and Sister Hughes have been connected with the Avondale School for the Training of Christian Workers. They will take up school work again in this country as soon as arrangements can be made. On their way from Vancouver to Battle Creek they made a short call upon the teachers and students of Walla Walla College. Brother W. A. Spicer, the secretary of the Mission Board, left Battle Creek, Tuesday evening, December 30, the evening of the fire, for New York City, expecting to sail on the following Thursday for the West Indies. He was planning to hold a general meeting in Jamaica and also in Trinidad, and it is probable that a conference will be organized in each place. Brother Spicer will also visit British Guiana. This trip will occupy the larger part of the time between this and the General Conference. We hope it will bring encouragement and blessing to the workers in these fields.
