Students Earn Scholarships Through Book Sales

A report received from the general field agent of the Atlantic Union Conference states that during the past vacation twenty young persons sold sufficient subscription books in that territory to earn a scholarship. Seven earned two scholarships or more. During the summer twenty-four different reports were received, showing sales of over $100 each per week. Another interesting item was the fact that ten students averaged forty hours a week, or more, during the entire summer, and ten others averaged thirty-five hours, or more. The average sales an hour were $1.23. Such reports show how effectively our literature is being used in the proclamation of this message.
