OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

In noting a Sabbath-school convention conducted in the church at Hamlin, Ohio, July 14, the Visitor says: "Sunday morning the Methodist church closed its doors, and the members, led by their pastor, marched over to our church, thus testing its capacity. In the evening many could not gain entrance. The Methodist brethren took part in the discussions, and expressed themselves as both pleased and edified by the services. In repairing our church at this place this church and the town people united heartily in the work and expense."

The Educational Council recently held at College View, Neb., decided to make the Review and Herald the organ of the Educational Department of the General Conference for the present. Once a month the paper will be increased in size by eight pages to accommodate this arrangement.

The July issue of Liberty contains an array of live subjects that should interest everybody. Here is the list: Sunday Laws and Good Government; Does the Sabbath Need Protection; State Sabbath Versus Divine Sabbath; Recent Sunday Crusade Developments in Pennsylvania; Do Working Men Need Sunday Laws; The Lesson of the California Earthquake; A Rejoinder; A Modern Christian City; The Question of "Whose Ox?"; Things Move; Christian Liberty; Notes on Current Religious Legislation; Man in the Place of God; The Railway Rate Bill and the Sabbath; Sunday Legislation in Louisiana; The Present Church Federation Movement—What Does It Mean; What Shall Save the Nation; etc. Published quarterly by Review and Herald Publishing Association, Takoma Park, Washington, D. C.; 25 cents a year, including extras.

At Huntingburg, Ind., where Brethren F. M. Roberts and J. F. Steele have been holding meetings, thirteen persons have accepted the faith.

At the last quarterly meeting of the church at Lawrence, Kansas, three members were added to the church by baptism. Brother J. W. Norwood administered the rite in the Kansas river.

The Kansas general camp-meeting is announced for August 9-19, at Salina.

Sabbath, July 14, four persons were added to the church at Kansas City, Kansas.

In the Reaper, Brother J. W. Christian reports the baptism of four candidates at Elk Point, S. D., and five at Swan Lake.

A dozen persons have taken their stand for the truth at Rock Hill, N. D., since the recent camp-meeting at that place.

Of the work in Milwaukee, Wis., Brother R. T. Dowsett writes to the Reporter: "Sabbath, June 30, three adults were baptized by Elder Olds, and united with the English church. Sabbath, July 14, eight more were baptized by Elder Christian. One united with the English church, and seven with the Scandinavian Company. Others are to be baptized in the near future."

July 7, at Sparta, Wis., five young persons were baptized by Brother F. Stebbeds. Two adult persons were also added to the church.

In the Canadian Union Messenger, Brother A. O. Burrill reports the organization of a church of twenty-five members at Petrolia, Ont.

The Baptists of Mountain View, our home town, have kindly offered our church the use of their house of worship, because of the loss of our meeting place, the Pacific Press chapel.
