OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

THREE persons were baptized near Jetmore, Kansas, recently, by Brother T. Godfrey.

A LOCAL camp-meeting is to be held at Manhattan, Kansas, October 5-12. The Florida camp-meeting will be held at Plant City, October 13-23.

A REPORT of Brother Sydney Scott, in the Kansas Worker, states that meetings in Nicodemus, Kansas, have resulted in the decision of fifteen to walk in all the commandments of God.

AS FRUIT of tent-meetings held at Blue Rapids, Kansas, by Brother B. W. Brown, ten persons have accepted the call to "keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus."

AT the recent session of the Texas Conference, held in connection with the camp-meeting at Keene, Brother N. P. Nelson was re-elected president; Miss Ida A. Nelson, secretary; and E. Harris, treasurer. Twenty-nine persons were baptized.

IN the Minnesota Worker of August 10, Brother H. S. Shaw says: "The foundation work of our school building has been completed, and the carpenters are now hard at work. We plan to open the school the 19th of October, and want the young people of Minnesota to be getting ready to come. We are going to begin the school work this year in living earnest, and are placing it on a permanent basis for the encouragement of those who desire an education." The paper does not state where the school building is located, but we suppose all the brethren in Minnesota know the locality. At any rate we are glad to learn of the progress of this prospective enterprise, wherever it may be.

A LETTER from Brethren W. H. Sebastian and M. C. Strachan, dated Brookhaven, Miss., August 4, contains the following interesting report: "We came here July 25, and found a company of sixteen Holiness people who had been led out into the Sabbath truth by the wife of the pastor. In other words, we found a Holiness Church, of which half the members were keeping the Sabbath, and the other half indifferent toward it. The pastor was led into the light of the Sabbath truth by his wife, and altogether, there was a company of sixteen Sabbath-keepers. We held meetings for ten days among them with good effect. The pastor and his wife embraced the truth as we taught it, and, together with their little company, walked out into the light of diet reform also. We organized a Sabbath-school of nineteen adult members, and three children. Near the close of our meetings some others accepted the truth, and are rejoicing now in the true light. Nearly all this company have promised to return to the Lord an honest tithe of their income. We shall return to this place later, and organize a church. We go next to Greenville, to conduct tent-meetings. Pray for our success."
