OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

By Editor

Two of sister Jennie DeYoung's readers in Grand Rapids, Mich., have commenced to keep the Sabbath.
Two NORWEGIAN brethren were recently baptized in the Niobrara River, in Nebraska, by Brother L. Johnson.
SEVEN new members have been added to the church at Pomona, Cal., through the labors of Brethren Hare and Whitehead.
EVIDENTLY our brethren in the field believe in the SIGNS OF THE TIMES. From October 15 to December 1 the subscription list advanced 3,500 copies.
THE First Day offerings in the Southern England Conference are devoted to the work in East Africa. For one quarter, Brother J. D. Baker writes that it amounted to $233.
BROTHER C. E. RENTFRO reports six converts in Portugal. His work is of course much hampered there by the Catholic authorities, but the message is going.
ABOUT twenty-five are keeping the Sabbath in Huntingburg, Ind., as a result of the labors of Brethren J. F. Steele and F. M. Roberts. Brother Roberts baptized six at Kokomo, who were taught the truth by Brother J. M. Rees during the summer.
ON Sabbath, November 24, Brother Burkholder organized the first Seventh-day Adventist Church in Zanesville, Ohio, with a membership of eleven, six of whom had been baptized the previous Sabbath. Nine of the charter members were new converts.
A PAPER FOR DANISH-SPEAKING PEOPLE.—The International Publishing Association, College View, Neb., has just issued a special number of the Evangeliets Sendebud, a signs-of-the-times number exceptionally well illustrated and well written. The articles cover points of Bible doctrine, prophecy, present-day conditions, etc., and will be found an excellent means of presenting these things to the Danish people in the United States. The subscription price is $1.25 a year. This number sells for five cents a copy. Address Evangeliets Sendebud, College View, Neb.
A LITTLE sheet from the Oakwood School, Huntsville, Ala., tells us that real progress is being made, notwithstanding the fire of October 11. The insurance was paid in full, giving them sufficient funds to begin building again. Five new buildings will be erected, a manual arts building, study hall, and a boys' dormitory. These will include shops, chapel, reception rooms, library, offices, and preceptor's department, as well as twenty individual rooms. Bath and treatment rooms will also be built, and dining-room and kitchen. An appeal is made to interest young colored students to enter that training school. Classes will be conducted in carpentry, blacksmithing, agriculture, horticulture, dairying, poultry-keeping, bee culture, cooking, plain sewing, dressmaking, and shoe repairing. All necessary information will be given on applying to Oakwood School, Huntsville, Ala.
