OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

A CAMP-MEETING is to be held at Lake Herman, near Madison, S. D., June 10-21.

FIVE persons have accepted the message at Nile, Wash., under the labors of Brother E. E. Smith.

THE annual camp-meeting and State Conference of Iowa is appointed for May 28 to June 7, at Colfax.

BROTHER WM. TWINING sailed from New York on the 16th inst., for Ireland, to engage in the work of the message.

BROTHER ETHAN A. BROWN, of 629 Erie Street, S. E., Minneapolis, Minn., will send a copy of Good Health to any one who will send address, and inclose stamp.

THE tract society of the Cumberland Conference has been removed from Lexington, Ky., to Louisville, 2116 W. Madison Street. Brother E. W. Carey is secretary and treasurer.

UNDER the auspices of Union College, a summer assembly will be held at College View, Neb., commencing June 10 and continuing eight weeks. Tuition, free; room and board, $2.25 per week.

A REPORT from the tract society office in Calcutta, India, says that “books and papers are going out rapidly into the country and into Burma, telling the people about the coming of the Lord and the message of the kingdom.”

BROTHER O. E. SIMPSON writes that he is enjoying the Indian work at Port Simpson, B. C., and feels that it is high time for the brethren in all the States and countries where the natives are found to take up the Gospel work among them as never before.

In a report of Brother W. A. Spicer in the Review is this statement: “I was glad to find in the West Indies that the directors of the British Bible Society in that part were able to say that our people were the most active of all in selling and distributing God’s Word.” This is a good testimony, and with our definite, emphatic message for this time it ought to be true that we are the most active in all parts. Disseminating the Gospel of the kingdom is, or ought to be, our only business. Every feature of our work is properly only a means to that one great end.

THE following extract from a letter from Brother B. E. Connerly, of Porto Rico, is taken from the New York Indicator:—

We have completed the work on our little paper, El Centinela de la Verdad, which is, being interpreted, The Sentinel of Truth. By this means we hope to spread the truth while learning to speak. We have placed in our paper a department on education, and have secured the names of over six hundred teachers to whom we will send sample copies and hope to secure their subscriptions by sending each a letter. Next month we will add a department on health and send to all the doctors of the island and thus hope to secure their aid and interest. We shall make the coming of the Lord the theme of our paper. We see so much to do we wish we were a dozen people. The people are calling for a school, and we are very sanguine that soon we shall have one. The people of Porto Rico are tired of Catholic oppression. They are looking for light.
