SIGNS for Work at the Jamestown Exposition.

WE have just received a very earnest appeal from Elder R. D. Hottel, president of the Virginia Conference, asking for tracts and papers to distribute at the Jamestown Exposition recently opened at Jamestown, Va. He wants to put a strong force of workers in there to work with the SIGNS, Watchman, Life and Health, and Liberty. The conference is not strong financially, and they need assistance. We understand that the General and Union Conferences have agreed to send help; now they want a club of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES to work with. We quote the following from Elder Hottel's letter:

"We are planning to use a good many SIGNS this summer in our tent work and in our work at the Jamestown Exposition. We are trying to get workers for all these places. I wish to say that the General and Union Conferences have supplied us with a man for the Jamestown Exposition, but you know that we are a small conference and not able to carry much work outside of our regular conference work. Therefore, if we do very much, we must have assistance from other sources. We believe that we could interest a number to take up this SIGNS work at the Exposition if we could furnish them with from one hundred to two hundred copies each week. But as we said, we are not able to pay for them. But if you can help us in this matter we will be very glad.

"At the Jamestown Exposition the circulation of our literature will be of general interest, and I feel as tho there are many of our people in all the conferences who would help us in this work. The General and Union Conferences are doing perhaps all they can in paying the wages and expenses of this man. There may be those who have on hand tracts or clean periodicals which they would be glad to furnish us free for free distribution at the Exposition. All such matter should be sent to G. A. Stevens, 24 Willow St., Hampton, Va. It should be sent prepaid. We are now planning to get a strong force of workers in there to work with the SIGNS, Watchman, Life and Health, and Liberty."

We have on hand several thousand copies of each of the first five numbers of the special series of the SIGNS OF THE TIMES, and are printing extras of each succeeding number. Would not the workers there appreciate the privilege of using a thousand copies or more of each of these excellent numbers? We believe by cooperation a club of at least 1,000 copies of each can be furnished. This will cost just $20.00 per week.

Donations for this work may be sent direct to us here, and a club will be made up and started at once. Cooperation Corner, SIGNS OF THE TIMES, Mountain View, Cal.
