Success in Mexico Notwithstanding the Revolution

ELDER G. W. CAVINESS sends the following note from Mexico, which shows that the Lord can prosper his work notwithstanding unfavorable conditions:—

“The colporteurs continue to have good success. The three young men who are working in Tampico write that during the last week they have averaged over $105 worth of orders each. This work has been done mostly by native Mexicans who have recently begun to canvass. Brother Green, who is now on the isthmus, is also having good success. Last month we sent to him over $2,000 worth of books. Brother Schulz is selling back numbers of the periodicals, and it is wonderful the success he is having. Every week we receive splendid orders from him.

“The work is succeeding as well this year as in years past, if not better. This seems especially manifest when we take into account the few workers we have and the unsettled conditions of the country. We do not know what may happen here, but up to the present we have not seen anything sufficiently alarming to cause us to leave the country. We are still trusting that God will arrange matters in such a way that his work may not be hindered.”
