CHILE

By G. H. Baker

IQUIQUE.—Our work in this field has been almost exclusively confined to Chile. However, our periodical, Los Señales de los Tiempos, goes into Bolivia and Peru, and is producing good effects, although the leaven is working slowly. There are some interested in Bolivia, and in Peru the work has been started under the direction of a Chilean. However, he has now returned to Chile, as he is unable to work against the strong current he finds there. Ecuador has not even been touched, and the harvest is ripe. The presidents of Bolivia and Ecuador are both liberal. We ought to have two or three good canvassers in each of the four republics in this mission field.
In Chile we have representatives in various places. We have organized a church in Iquique, with about thirty-five members, also a Sabbath-school. In Valparaiso we have a Sabbath-school, but no regular church organization, as the company is too small. We have been holding meetings in my house for about a year. We have the printing-press and the book depository in my house also, and are printing two papers—Los Señales and La Revista Adventista. The latter (The Advent Review) is a small eight-page church paper. In Santiago, the capital of Chile, we have a small congregation. G. H. BAKER.
