Triumphs in the Canvassing Work

By Walter Harper

I LEFT California the latter part of September, and by the first of October was busy in eastern Nevada, where the altitude is about 6,500 feet. The Lord signally blessed my efforts as I tried to place a combination of religious and medical books in the homes of the people. This plan is surely ordained of heaven.

I made a short delivery of nine days in November, placing between three and four hundred dollars' worth of books, aside from helps. My January delivery brought in over one thousand dollars for books and helps. I handled the relief edition of "Ministry of Healing," and the trip yielded one hundred and thirty dollars for the Loma Linda Medical College. However, my leading books were "Practical Guide to Health," and "Daniel and the Revelation." These most excellent volumes sell readily. The world is perishing for the living manna they contain. I pray that a host of precious souls may be won for Christ's kingdom as the result of the circulation of these truth-filled pages. On this trip I saw many evidences of God's love, and experienced his sustaining power. For all these blessings, and for my success, I thank and praise him.

The middle of January I returned to California for a much-needed rest at Loma Linda. Walter Harper.
