OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

We are requested to state that the Welcome Visitor is Academia, Knox County, Ohio.

THE baptism of three candidates at Eugene, Oregon, is noted in the Visitor by Brother H. J. Schnepper.

THE annual session of the Missouri Conference is set for the 26th to the 31st inst., at Utica, in Livingston County.

A new house of worship was dedicated at Pound, Wis., on the 1st inst., by Brethren C. J. Herrmann and H. W. Reed.

A SABBATH-SCHOOL was recently organized at Clarksburg, W. Va., with F. M. Gardner as superintendent and Minnie Haddix secretary.

IT was decided at the late General Conference Council to select four experienced canvassers from the Australian field and six from the United States, to go to England with the general agent next spring to push the canvassing work there.

AS a result of labors by Brother J. A. Holbrook, at Halfway, in Pine Valley, Oregon, a church of thirteen members was organized October 19. Subsequent labors resulted in an addition of nine more, and the erection of a house of worship.

DOCTOR A. N. LOPER, formerly medical superintendent of the College View (Nebraska) Sanitarium, has accepted the like position in the St. Helena Sanitarium, St. Helena, Cal. Mail addressed to him at Sanitarium, Cal., will reach him promptly.

FROM the South African Sentinel we learn that the church at Claremont received an awakening through the labors of Brother G. W. Reaser, during his brief stay at the recent conference session. Six candidates were baptized, and the church was much refreshed.

BROTHER J. M. REES, president of Missouri Conference, reports to the Record a recent visit to the church at Kingsville. He says: “This is one of the oldest churches in the conference, and after many years meeting in a school-house they now have a very nice church building in which to hold their services.”

WRITING to the Dakota Worker from the island of Trinidad, Brother W. G. Kneeland says: “At present we have one chapel to dedicate the 23d of this month [November], and another being built, while a lot has been secured for a third. We are compelled to build or stop our work in these places.” However, they can build churches that answer their purpose much cheaper than in the Dakotas. But he reminds the Dakota brethren that there are many more people to reach in Trinidad with less than one-tenth of the facilities for successful work that are available in Dakota. They expect to use two tents next season.
