LABOR IN CALIFORNIA.

By J. Fulton

It was my privilege to spend a few months at the Rural Health Retreat. Although much reduced in strength, lungs seriously affected, and suffering from catarrh, by the blessing of God, under the careful treatment of the physicians, the kindness of all connected with the institution, and plenty of outdoor exercise, I feel like a new man. My lungs are apparently sound, catarrh all gone, and I enjoy better health than I have for many years in the past. I desire to consecrate my new lease of life fully to the cause of God.

The past few weeks I have met with the San Francisco church on the Sabbath and on Sunday evenings. These meetings have been seasons of strength and encouragement to the brethren and sisters. December 17, five were baptized, uniting with the church. The Lord is blessing the labors of the Bible workers, in the conversion of precious souls to the truth.

The meetings on Sabbath afternoons with the young people at the Pacific Press have been interesting and profitable. Many seem determined to so connect with Heaven that their works will be wrought in God.

Although my visit to this Conference has been brief, yet it has been very pleasant. I feel thankful for the privilege of becoming acquainted

with the institutions here, and with so many of the brethren in California. I now go to the North Pacific Conference. My address will be Box 18, East Portland, Oregon. J. FULTON.
