A GENERAL meeting of churches within accessible distance is to be held at Moravia, Iowa, October 18-21.

THE attendance at the tent meetings in Atlanta, Ga., is said to be good, with a corresponding interest on the part of those who hear.

BROTHER GEORGE D. BALLOU has removed to Oxford, N. C., and commenced meetings in a public hall, of which he was granted the free use.

AT a general meeting announced for Blencoe, Iowa, October 12-14, a part of the program was the dedication of a new house of worship.

AT Mason City, W. V., Elder S. P. Whitney and Brother Wm. Hutchinson are holding meetings, with a good attendance and good interest.

AT the Sabbath meeting in Spokane, Wash., on the 22d ult., five more took their stand for the truth. Elder W. W. Stewart will remain in that city through the winter.

ELDER W. C. GRAINGER is conducting a series of tent meetings at Newman, a railroad town on the west side of San Joaquin River, Stanislaus County, Cal., and reports a good interest.

OUR workers who call for literature for missionary purposes should note carefully what is sent to them before giving it out to the public. If they are not thus careful they may be imposed upon, and in turn impose upon others.

CONCERNING tent meetings held near Moville, Woodbury County, Iowa, Elder W. B. Everhart says that "opposition, both public and private, has of late been very determined; and we see what men would do had they the power in their own hands." Ten have accepted the truths presented, and others are interested.

THE new house of worship at College View, Neb., was dedicated September 23. The total cost of site and building, furnished, was about $16,000. The General Conference, the local Conferences of Iowa, Nebraska, Wisconsin, and South Dakota, and Review and Herald Publishing Company, donated toward the enterprise.

BROTHER A. D. DONALDSON, a California canvasser, writes to the Missionary Echo: "I find many of our books as I go from place to place. Some of them are not much used, while others are doing a good work. The family that I have been stopping with for a few days have a copy of 'Bible Readings.' One of their daughters has desired to keep the Sabbath, but the mother would not give her consent. Now the mother says she will grant her permission, and is going to keep it herself."
