OUR WORK AND WORKERS.

FIVE pupils of the church school at Barbers Mills, Ind., were recently baptized by Brother J. M. Rees, uniting with the church.
BROTHER C. D. M. WILLIAMS writes from Honolulu, H. I., that he has baptized two who have joined the church. Two others have begun keeping the Sabbath.
TWO SISTERS are selling nearly 100 SIGNS in the down-town district of Anderson, Ind., on Saturday nights within two hours' time. A good example for many, it seems to us.
A SERIES of meetings held at Middletown, Ind., by Brother J. M. Rees has resulted in the conversion of eight, all adults but two. Brother Rees also reports one baptism at Kokomo, Ind.
THE Indiana Reaper contains the following item: "Brother Olmstead, who is being supported by the Indiana Conference in Africa, writes as follows: 'The Lord has given us ten souls since coming here in July. Another sister decided last Friday to unite with the church, who has been keeping the Sabbath for some time.'"
GOOD work for the Master is being done in many of our larger cities by those who give Bible readings from house to house. Sister Florence Niehaus, of Indiana, reports two new Sabbath-keepers among her readers.
THE Minnesota Health League recently attempted to secure the aid of the restaurants and dining halls of St. Paul in serving a vegetarian supper, but none of these would attempt it. Finally the Seventh-day Adventist ladies were called upon. They accepted, and the result was a feast of good things—pure things, of which two hundred partook.
A NOTE in The Worker's Record, the Missouri Conference paper, tells us of the death of Brother D. E. Scoles, February 12, after a very brief sickness, the result of a stroke of paralysis. Brother Scoles will be remembered as the author of a number of tracts. His family and associated laborers have the sympathy of the SIGNS readers everywhere.
THE news of the drowning of Elder A. G. Bodwell in Gila River, near San Jose, Ariz., comes to us thru the public press. It appears he hired a pony of a boy to cross the Gila River, desiring to visit some distant brethren, who thru some misunderstanding failed to meet him as he expected. The boy who accompanied him on another pony, crossed the river safely, but on looking for his companion, both he and the pony were missing. The body of the pony was found, but tho the river was dragged, the body of Brother Bodwell could not be located.
