OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

FOUR candidates were baptized at La Grange, Wis., May 7, by Brother F. F. Petersen.
BROTHER A. O. BURRILL, in the Indicator, notes the addition of four members to the church at Jeddo, N. Y.
AT a quarterly-meeting conducted by Brother L. W. Felter, at Houston, Texas, June 25, five members were added to the church.
THE brethren at Prentice, Wis., have purchased a house of worship, all furnished, which, after receiving some necessary repairs, was rededicated June 26.
TWO MORE laborers have entered Alberta, the fast-developing province of the Northwest, the new accession being Brethren H. E. Shelstad and Gust Henrickson, of Minnesota.
IN EDINBURG, Scotland, the city of John Knox, a tent furnished by the New York Conference is being utilized for meetings conducted by Brethren W. A. Westworth and F. D. Gautereau.
WORD from India informs us that a native of the southern part has translated several of our tracts into the Canarese language, and has printed them at his own expense. It is said that this man never has seen any of our people.
IN THE WEST MICHIGAN HERALD we notice reports of the baptism of four candidates at Shelby, by Brother W. C. Hebner, and six others at Wright, by Brother A. G. Haughey. The last mentioned were all members of the church school, ranging in ages from thirteen to eighteen.
THE Colorado Sanitarium at Boulder, Colo., graduated on June 14 a senior nurses' class of seven members, and a Christian-help class of three. An interesting and instructive program was rendered on the occasion. May God make these young people blessings to humanity.
IN THE WISCONSIN REPORTER, Brother Wm. Covert tells of the baptism of twenty-three students at Bethel Academy, June 11. On the same day Prof. H. A. Washburn was ordained to the Gospel ministry, previous to his leaving that school for his new duties in connection with the Emmanuel Missionary College, at Berrien Springs, Mich.
OF THE WORK IN Vicksburg, Miss., Brother James Bellinger and wife report to the Minnesota Worker: “God has richly blessed our efforts here. Ten have decided to obey God. The people are mostly addicted to the tobacco habit, which is hard for them to give up. We ought to have many more workers here. The work is greater than we can do.” But in face of it all, they add, “Our courage is good, and we are looking for the Lord to come soon.”
MR. F. W. BARTLE, of Oxford, New York, is collecting some books for one of our missionaries in Australia. He desires to secure the following:—
“Lectures to Young Men,” by Sylvester Graham.
“Exhausted Vitality,” by E. P. Miller.
“Hints to the Young,” by Dr. Woodbridge.
“Lectures to Ladies on Anatomy and Physiology,” by Mrs. Gove.
If any of our readers have copies of the above, Brother Bartle will be glad to correspond with them.
