VANCOUVER.—Today, February 13, there were fifty adults in attendance at our Sabbath meeting who had begun Sabbath observance during the last two years and a half. There are fully twenty or twenty-five others who were not present, many of whom have gone from the city. Many others are interested. Meetings are now held in three of our church buildings three times weekly. This is the result of the efforts of Elder Luther Warren and his assistants.

During this time about one hundred, including children, have moved out of this city. Much of the time Brother C. A. Cole has reported the meetings and the progress of the work in the different dailies. Our sisters have sold, during this time, more than $4,000 worth of our monthly magazines. Some months as many as 7,000 have been disposed of, most of which have been placed in the hands of the citizens of New Westminster and Vancouver.

The war is causing many to awaken to the fact that the nations are angry, and that the time of "thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldst give reward unto thy servants the prophets, . . . and them that fear thy name, small and great." It is a "time of trouble" to many thousands in this city.
