THE object of this association is to print, purchase, and sell religious, health, and educational literature throughout the United States in the German, Danish-Norwegian, Swedish, and other foreign languages. Thus it will be to these different nationalities represented in the denomination what the Review and Herald Publishing Company and the Pacific Press Publishing Company are to the English-speaking people.
The association has purchased and fitted up a building at College View, Neb., as economically as possible, in which to do their work. In this they have set an example that is commendable. In fact, no means has been expended unnecessarily for outward show, yet they have a good, neat, commodious plant in which to do their work. They need $6,000 on or before April 1 in order to meet certain obligations and be prepared to do efficient work.

For years our foreign brethren have contributed liberally to conference and institutional work. Our sanitariums and publishing houses represent the sweat, toil, and sacrifice of these brethren as well as the English brethren. In times of necessity they have shared our denominational burdens, and when appeals have been made for means with which to assist any worthy enterprise, they have responded liberally. The money that has been used thus far in the work of the International Publishing Association has been donated by our foreign brethren. They have taken hold of the work nobly, and we feel assured that they will continue to lift with heart and hand until the work is done. Shall we not assist them by a liberal contribution Sabbath, February 6? I am sure this will be pleasing to the Lord. May the Lord stir the hearts of our brethren to abound in the grace of giving at this time for the benefit of this needy enterprise.
