An Important Action

By Editor

At the recent General Conference Council at College View, Neb., the following recommendations were passed September 19:—

We recommend, That the readings and a suggestive program for these [winter missionary] conventions, together with detailed plans for the campaign, be published in the REVIEW; and in order that this essential information and the valuable instruction and interesting reports from the world-wide field, which this paper contains, may be studied by all our people,—

We recommend, That, during the month of October, the librarians, church elders, and conference laborers seek to place it in the home of every Sabbath-keeper.

Such an action as this seems most fitting, and we had already anticipated it by entering upon a vigorous effort in behalf of a much wider circulation of the paper. We had suggested that in view of the coming missionary campaign, and the matter which the REVIEW would contain concerning its progress and success, all our people should have its weekly visits.

We are glad that our brethren at the council feel in the same way, and that we may count on the co-operation of all our people for this effort.

The month of October is a sufficient length of time to fully accomplish this work if every one will do his part.

We trust that church and conference officers will take up this work heartily and at once. We will furnish sample copies for such use, and co-operate in any other way we can. Address Review and Herald, Circulation Dept., 222 North Capitol St., Washington, D. C.
