Orthodox Charity in California
By Editor
ONE Mrs. J. B. Rideout has been riding out and around, the past summer, in California; and through the columns of the Occident is telling about it. Of the size of the towns, she gives exceptionally definite information: as for instance, Cloverdale is a "thrifty little village," and "Healdsburg is considerable larger than Cloverdale." Of the people her estimation is equally definite, and as charitable as it is definite. Writing of Healdsburg she say:— "Here the Seventh-day Adventists have their stronghold. Disregarding the sanctities of the glorious Lord's-day, they, like the Jews—who do not believe in the divinity of Christ—keep Saturday instead of Sunday." How beautifully the grace of charity shines through some people, especially if they be "orthodox!"
