SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA CONFERENCE.
By Clarence Santee
The brethren at Nordhoff have not yet presented the Sabbath truth, but one has accepted the truth, and others are listening with deep interest. The opposition of the “holiness” people has been bitter. The tent is now pitched at the Soldier’s Home, between Los Angeles and Santa Monica, and Brethren Hare and Thurston are beginning a series of meetings. We ask the prayers of the brethren and sisters that these old veterans, who are many hundreds in number, may be led to weigh the truth with unprejudiced minds. With many it will be the last hope, as they are rapidly dying off with old age. The Los Angeles church-school building will be inclosed before this will reach its readers. It is 40 by 28 feet, with a first and second floor. This will accommodate the children nicely. We are glad that the church will not be used this winter for school purposes. The managers of the Santa Ana Bank, at Santa Ana, have promised to fit rooms in a building that they control, free of charge, for our church school; that is, they will cut a double doorway to connect rooms for the school. There are quite a number of our youth who are preparing to attend Healdsburg College this winter. The Southern California Conference has thirteen organized churches, and they will have eleven church schools this fall. CLARENCE SANTEE.
