THE MAY number of the Life Boat is a special for use in jails and penitentiaries. The price is $1.00 per hundred. It ought to have a large circulation. Address 1926 Wabash Avenue, Chicago, Ill., or your State tract society.
AT the last quarterly meeting of the church at Deadwood, S. D., six were added to the membership. A good interest has been awakened by circulating the SIGNS prior to the special labors of Brethren J. H. Wheeler and L. E. Johnson.
A CHURCH of eleven members was organized at Cardiff, Ala., March 25, on which occasion five persons were baptized. This result was mainly through the labors of Brother W. Woodford. Brother E. L. Sanford was present at the organization. This company has also erected a house of worship.
THE workers in Honolulu are receiving occasional requests that some provision be made for the education of the Chinese girls. Who could contemplate a more noble work, uplifting these who have so long been degraded? Openings are multiplying, workers are volunteering, but the means has not yet been offered.
REFERRING to our church schools, the Training School Advocate says: “The standard must be held high, because it is God-given, and we shall put forth every effort to reach it. As the young people from all parts of the United States gather at Battle Creek this summer, we look forward to a greater flood of light on educational methods than we have had before. It is planned to have actual work with children, that the teachers may receive not only the theory, but may see the actual workings of lessons on the child mind.”
MRS. L. MONNING writes to the Review from Guadalajara, Mexico, that “the Guadalajara Sanitarium is two months old, and is certainly prospering beyond our most sanguine expectations. . . . We certainly have a neat building, with the most excellent facilities for fresh air and sunlight. At present we have about fifteen house patients, with six or eight from the city. A short time ago Dr. John had three severe cases of pneumonia in one family in the city, and the patients made remarkable recoveries. This at once made the doctor well known, and several cases have been brought to him since.”
THE Fort Worth, Texas, Register of recent date has this item of interest concerning our work in that city:—
“The interest and attendance continue to increase at the Haven of Rest Mission. This mission is doing a good work for fallen humanity, and many souls are being converted. The workers have been kept quite busy during the winter nursing the sick and clothing the poor. Thursday they started out with a new enterprise in the shape of a penny lunch counter. The object is to furnish food to those who are in need, for the actual cost of the raw material. The food is well cooked and everything is clean and neat. Some of the business men of Fort Worth took their dinner at the mission and were highly pleased with it. The superintendent of the mission and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Rodwell, have been in Fort Worth since the first of last August, and have spent several hundred dollars from their own pockets besides spending their time and rescuing the fallen. They came here from Chicago, where they obtained a thorough experience in mission work.”
