A Campaign for the Protestant Magazine

By Editor

THE Washington Herald and the Post for January 21 contain write-ups of the closing of the doors of the Washington Foreign Mission Seminary the twentieth instant, that the students might engage in a day's canvass of the city of Washington for the February number of the Protestant Magazine. This issue contains two speeches by Rev. R. H. McKim, the chief speaker at the union Protestant service in the New National Theater, last month, entitled "Why We Are Protestants," and "America Chief Heir of the Reformation," both of which are national, and world-wide even, in their importance, covering in full, as they do, the great controversy now on between the principles of Bible Protestantism and Roman Catholicism. The District of Columbia Conference is planning to place from 5,000 to 10,000 copies of this number among the residents of Washington. Thus far the total sales have amounted to over two thousand copies, and the campaign is to continue until March 1. Look for a full report of this great campaign in next week's REVIEW. Unsolicited on our part, the editor of the Washington Times published on the church page of his issue for January 17 an article headed "Dr. McKim's Speech Attracts Attention," in which he urged all to buy the February number of the Protestant Magazine, mentioning the magazine by name twice. Will not our conference officers, schools, and church officers unite in inaugurating similar campaigns in their respective localities? Now is a most opportune time to circulate our truth-filled literature, and to draw to our standard the honest in heart everywhere who are beginning to see the dangers confronting our liberties from the aggressions of Romanism.
