OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

The brethren at Muscatine, Iowa, have purchased a church from the Baptists, and have it fitted up, and commenced holding their meetings in it.

C. E. Leland and wife report good results of their meetings at Port Huron, Mich. They have organized a Sabbath-school of 17 members and 2 more have commenced the observance of the Lord’s Sabbath.

At a recent meeting of the board, Dr. J. D. Shively was appointed superintendent of the Iowa Sanitarium. This leaves Pastor C. F. Stevens free, in accordance with his earnest request, to attend to other important duties.

The principal of our church-school in Grant City, Iowa, gives a most cheery report in regard to its flourishing condition. There is no reason in the world why these schools should not be a great blessing to any church that will start them. The sturdy moral truth of the Bible should be woven strongly into the education of every child.

The Sacramento, Cal., Record-Union of February 23 says: “Large crowds of interested people are nightly attending the Bible studies conducted by Evangelist C. N. Martin, at the Elkus store building, on J Street between Ninth and Tenth. The studies have been conducted along the line of prophecy, showing how the nations of the world are to-day fulfilling the Word of God.”

Our Industrial School at Cedar Lake, Mich., is reported in a flourishing condition. The spring term commenced on February 21, and closes May 15. If there are any within reach of this school who have not fully decided to avail themselves of its advantages, it is not too late for them to start upon the spring term yet. Address the principal, H. D. Day, Cedar Lake, Mich.

The academy at Woodland, Wis., begins its spring term March 5. All of our young people in that vicinity should take advantage of this opportunity to get a Christian education. And if there are any who do not hold the same faith with us, but who desire the special advantages of this school, they will be made welcome. Any one interested should address Prof. J. E. Tenney, Bethel, Wood Co., Wis.

The Indiana Conference Committee have appointed the third week in March as a time for the whole conference to engage in the sale of “Christ’s Object Lessons.” As is well known to our readers, the material out of which these books are made is all donated by various individuals, and our publishing houses donate the work, so that the entire amount received from the sale of the book goes to the relief of our schools. It is truly encouraging to see the earnest way in which our people all over the field are taking hold of it.
