OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

A NEW house of worship has been completed at Oshweken, Ont.

A CAMP-MEETING is now in progress at St. Peter, Mich., to continue till the 28th inst.

AT the recent camp-meeting at Boonville, Mo., twenty-five candidates were baptized.

THE date of this paper is the time set for the opening of the fall term of the Southern Training School at Graysville, Tenn.

NINE heads of families keeping the Sabbath in Galt, Ont., is a report in the Messenger concerning recent labors there, and a good interest continues.

THE name of the Ontario Messenger has been changed to The Messenger, and the publication office has been removed from Toronto to Brantford.

THE office of the Texas Tract Society has been moved from Dallas to Keene. Correspondents and patrons will save time and perhaps delay of business by noting the change.

ON the 2d ult., after a sermon by Brother J. M. Rees in the Second S. D. A. Church, Kansas City, Mo., ten persons were baptized. On the previous Sabbath four persons were admitted to membership in the First church.

AUGUST 16, at the Coshocton, Ohio, camp-meeting, twenty-five persons were baptized. M. C. Kirkendall, N. W. Lawrence, J. O. Miller, C. C. Webster, Francis M. Fairchild, and W. H. Granger were ordained to the Gospel ministry on the same day.

LABOR by Brother Wm. Simpson and Eugene Leland, at Sodom, Ont., is giving encouraging results. Twelve are keeping the commandments of God, and before the tent season closes it is expected that a church organization will be effected. A building has been donated for meeting purposes, and the outlook is favorable.

THE St. Helena, Cal., Star, of recent date, has this item: "The Sanitarium people have built a new schoolhouse near the Health Food Company's factory. This school, we understand, is to be conducted by the Seventh-day Adventists. The members of the sect are becoming so numerous in the vicinity of Sanitarium that a denominational school has been decided upon."

WRITING from Demerara, South Africa, July 28, 1902, Brother J. A. Morrow says: "One week ago yesterday we had a baptism. Ten followed their Lord in this solemn rite. Twelve were admitted to membership in the church. These are all fruit of our meetings since the 1st of June. Owing to these additions and a good prospect of others, we are sadly in need of a church, and need help to build one."

OKLAHOMA CONFERENCE reports a successful camp-meeting and conference session. Many came in wagons from twenty-five to two hundred miles. There were about eight hundred campers. Services were conducted in both German and English. Brother G. H. Haffner was elected president; T. J. Eagle, treasurer and secretary of the tract society. Eighteen persons were given licenses to preach the Gospel.
