Obituaries

NEAL.—Died in Rock Island, Ill., June 6, 1911, Ralph Eugene Neal, aged fourteen months. The family has been greatly afflicted with sickness. Neighbors have shown much sympathy, and have done what they could. The hope of the resurrection comforts the parents in the loss of their little one. Words of consolation were spoken from 2 Kings 4:26. L. D. SANTEE.

MONTGOMERY.—Mary A. Clemmons was born near Oakley, Ill., May 5, 1859, and died in Decatur, Ill., May 24, 1911, aged fifty-two years and nineteen days. Dec. 30, 1886, she was married to W. L. Montgomery. To this union two children were born. She became a Christian early in life, and for twelve years was an active worker in the Seventh-day Adventist Church. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer to a large company of friends and neighbors. B. F. STUREMAN.

BRINES.—Died in Buxton, Maine, May 16, 1911, Sister Louisa M. Brines, aged 55 years, 3 months, and 16 days. She was born in Marine City, Mich. She accepted present truth about fifteen years ago, and has remained steadfast to the faith. Soon after coming to Maine, she, with her husband, united with the North Deering church, of which she was a member at the time of her death. We believe she sleeps in Jesus. Her husband, two children, mother, four brothers, three sisters, and other relatives are left to mourn. Words of comfort were spoken by the writer at the funeral service. Text, Rev. 14:13. P. B. OSBORNE.

REISH.—Julia Ann Reish (née Heaton) was born in Miami County, Ohio, May 6, 1833, and died May 29, 1911, at the home of her daughter in Hawthorn, Wis., aged seventy-eight years and twenty-three days. She was married to Samuel Reish, Feb. 5, 1851, and came to Clarke County, Iowa, in 1856. To this union were born seven children, five of whom are living. She has been a faithful member of the Seventh-day Adventist Church for forty-five years, and rejoiced in the hope of the soon-coming Saviour. She was of a kind disposition, a patient, loving wife and mother, and one whose help and deeds of kindness will not soon be forgotten by those who knew her. The funeral service was conducted by Dr. C. W. Heald, and the remains were laid to rest by the side of her companion in the Green Bay Cemetery. A. L. LINGLE.

BACHELLOR.—Arvilla M. Bachellor (née Lane) was born at Genoa, N. Y., Dec. 17, 1837, and fell peacefully asleep May 17, 1911, aged seventy-three years and five months. When she was but two months old, her parents came to Michigan. In 1848 she, with her parents, accepted the third angel’s message under the labors of Elder Joseph Bates. She was one of the charter members of the first church organized in Battle Creek. In 1860 she was united in marriage to J. Warren Bachellor, who came as a worker in 1855, when the Review and Herald Office was removed from Rochester, N. Y., to Battle Creek, Mich. To this union were born two children, who with their father are left to mourn; she is also survived by one brother. In her gentle, quiet way she worked for her Master; and her faith in God and the final triumph of the third angel’s message never wavered. The writer, assisted by Prof. C. A. Russell, conducted the funeral services, basing words of comfort upon Rev. 14:13. C. N. SANDERS.

BAHLER.—Mrs. Pauline Bahler (née Paulson) was born near Clifton, Tex., Dec. 19, 1858, and died at her brother’s home at Clifton, May 5, 1911. In the summer of 1886, when the writer held a meeting in Bosque County, she accepted present truth, to which she steadfastly held until the end. Jan. 17, 1897, she was married to Brother J. F. Bahler, to whom she was a faithful wife and guide in his travels (he being blind), and a kind and tender mother to his daughter. She was self-sacrificing and in every respect noble-minded. The funeral services were conducted by Mr. P. E. Thurston, pastor of the Lutheran church, and she was laid to rest in the Clifton cemetery. A. W. JENSON.

COLE.—George W. Cole was born in the State of New York, Oct. 2, 1842, and died at his home near Mt. Pleasant, Mich., June 7, 1911. When but a boy, his parents moved to Ohio, where he lived until 1866, when he was united in marriage with Miss Rebecca Waters, and moved to his farm in Isabella County, Michigan, where the remainder of his life was spent. In 1878, under the labors of Brother L. A. Kellogg he became acquainted with the views held by Seventh-day Adventists and promptly accepted them, retaining his hold upon these truths and his membership in the church till his death. He leaves a companion and six children to mourn. Funeral services were conducted by the writer. J. J. IRWIN.

MESSER.—Died at the home of her parents, near Toppenish, Wash., April 11, 1911, after a brief illness, my dear sister, Iva I. Messer, aged twenty-three years and eleven days.

D., of which she remained a member until two years ago. After coming to Washington, she united with the Granger church, of which she remained a member till the last. She leaves a father, mother, three brothers, and five sisters to mourn; but we believe our loved one sleeps in Jesus. Funeral services were held in the Springdale M. E. church, Rev. Spaulding officiating. PEARL V. MESSER.

ZOLLINGER.—Mrs. Emma M. Zollinger was born at Mineral Point, Wis., Dec. 29, 1849, and died in Albuquerque, N. M., April 2, 1911, aged 61 years, 3 months, and 4 days. At the time of her death she was visiting her daughter. She was married at Mineral Point, where she resided until five years ago, when the family moved to Burlington, Colo. Sister Zollinger was a member of the Dodgeville (Wis.) Seventh-day Adventist church for many years. Her humble and consistent Christian life won for her the respect and high esteem of all the church and neighbors. Her husband, six children, mother, and other relatives are left to mourn. She was laid to rest in the Fair View Cemetery at Albuquerque to await the return of her Saviour. The funeral services were conducted by the writer. Text, Rev. 22:3. C. McREYNOLDS. (Lake Union Herald, please copy)

HATCH.—Died at the home of her daughter, at Maple View, N. Y., April 12, 1911, Mrs. Sarah M. Titus Hatch, aged 62 years, 4 months, and 12 days. Mrs. Hatch accepted present truth about forty years ago, and lived an earnest Christian life till the day of her death. She was a member of the Buffalo Seventh-day Adventist church until a few weeks before her death, when, as she was living with her daughter at Maple View, she joined the church there. The night before her death she attended prayer-meeting. Two daughters, two brothers, and a large circle of friends are left to mourn. The funeral service was conducted by Elder J. W. Lair, after which the body was brought to Buffalo. Prayer and a few remarks were then made by the writer, and we laid her by the side of her husband in the beautiful cemetery at Marilla, N. Y., to await the coming of the Life-giver. T. B. WESTBROOK.

Giving the Order to Advance

Here is a word from Elder W. H. Anderson, of the Barotseland Mission, north of the Zambesi, away in the African interior:—

“Our church has more than doubled during the last two years, and now numbers fifty. Some of these are the first-fruits of the out-stations. I am so glad some of these native workers up here have become soul-winners, and that they are now leading their own people into the truth. We are grateful to God that he has heard our prayers, and that the government administration has reversed unfavorable decisions, and given us better terms than ever for the extension of our work. We have not heard definitely what was done about our appropriation; but as we heard a rumor that we could not get all that was asked for, it was decided that Brother E. C. Silsbee and wife should take up work for the season at the Kimberley treatment-rooms. While loath to release them, I did not see how we could manage to extend the work to Northeastern Rhodesia this year without all the funds we asked for. But the work is advancing evenly all along the line, and we expect to see it finished here, and to be ready with you when Jesus calls his people home.”

But we do not want to hear of workers in the missions having to go back to the colonies to wait for the advance. It is for all the people to give the order of advance to our missions everywhere, by the heaviest midsummer offering ever made, on Sabbath, July 1, followed by the steady stream of gifts to the end of the year.

Dr. Maxson and Daughters Visit Washington

WE have been glad to greet in Washington, Dr. W. H. Maxson and daughters, of Oakland, Cal., who are visiting friends in the East.

Training-School in Pua, Chile

WE have received the annual announcement of the training-school in Pua, Chile (South America), George W. Casebeer, principal. South of the equator the school year opens in March, and closes the last of October.

Miss Baharian Sails for Europe

This week Miss Beatrice Baharian, of the Washington Sanitarium nurses' class, sails for Europe. Miss Baharian is the daughter of Elder Z. G. Baharian, of the Levant Mission, and after some further special hospital work in Europe will doubtless join the workers in Turkey.

He Is Able

“I know whom I have believed,” said Paul, “and am persuaded that he is able.” This is the hope of the workers among the unwarned millions. “As I look at the millions here in Burma,” writes Brother R. A. Beckner, from Mandalay, “I wonder how they will ever hear the message with so few of us to tell it; but we know in whom we have believed, and know that he is able.”

“Student’s Life of Paul”

THIS is a very convenient help in the study of the present series of Sabbath-school lessons. “The aim of the book,” as stated in the preface, “is threefold: first, to present the biography of the great apostle to the Gentiles; second, to present the facts in as simple and scientific a manner as possible, without comment and without rhetorical elaboration, assuming that what the reader desires to know first of all, and what he surely ought to know first of all, is the facts, or the nearest possible approximation of the facts; third, to present the material in an accessible and usable form.”

The book contains 278 pages, and is printed from large, clear type. Price, only 50 cents. Order from Review and Herald Pub. Assn., Takoma Park, D. C.

Repeated Calls for Canvassers

By Editor

The editors of the Review and Herald make a special request of all who read this page that they turn at once to the Missionary and Publishing department, and read the article entitled “Repeated Calls for Canvassers.” There are two very important suggestions made in that article, in one or the other of which every reader of the Review and Herald can have a part and will want a part. A real crisis is revealed in the work there brought to our attention. What shall we do about it?

Church and State in Portugal

We learn from Elder C. E. Rentfro, of Lisbon, that church and state questions are not fully settled yet in the new Portuguese republic. He says: “We can not hold public meetings after sundown without a license from the authorities. This may be changed later on. The officials have been very kind toward us. It is a question just what church organizations, as such, will be permitted. But I am sure God’s work must go forward. Pray that God may help us in this needy land.”

The House Problem in Panama

The following from a letter from Elder H. C. Goodrich shows the problem the West Caribbean Conference is wrestling with in its effort to restore its office headquarters since the Colon fire and the removal of the West Indian Union office to Jamaica:—

“It seems necessary, in building here, to consider the wants of the laborers. One rented room costs from ten dollars to fifteen dollars, gold, and this in buildings with four to eight families using a common kitchen. To get respectable rooms would cost us from forty dollars to sixty dollars a month. I am planning a building 28 x 60 feet, with chapel and conference office below, and three suites of rooms above. Rent on the chapel and rooms would bring in $648 a year.

“The chairman of the Canal Commission, in view of our loss, has kindly told me they will furnish us building materials. If we could borrow $1,500, we would have enough to go ahead. I am trying to borrow of individuals, but have not succeeded yet. In case we do not succeed, I think we shall have to move back to Bocas, which I would much regret. This is not an appeal; I know how the Mission Board is crowded to the limit. But I wish you to know what the situation is with us.”

Work Piled Up Ahead

A LETTER from Brother C. H. Jones, of the Pacific Press, says: “Never before, in all our history, have we seen so much work piled up ahead of us.”

Midsummer Offering Service Readings

THE program of readings for the midsummer offering service, Sabbath, July 1, has been sent to all the churches from the General Conference Office. This program, in July, takes the place of the usual second Sabbath foreign mission program.

Changes in Camp-Meeting Dates

Within the past two weeks a number of changes have been made in the dates of camp-meetings. All who are expecting to attend these gatherings should examine the list as it now appears and note the change, if any, in the date of the meeting they expect to attend.

The Bengali Work in Calcutta

BROTHER L. G. MOOKERJEE writes courageously of the Bengali work in Calcutta, where he is now located. Despite organized opposition, the calls for labor are more than can be responded to. Sister Carolyn H. Votaw, writing of the work in Burma, says: “As for ourselves, we find the work getting beyond us. Our interest is the best that it has ever been.”

Biennial Council in Germany

This week Elders O. A. Olsen, W. B. White, and W. A. Spicer and Dr. D. H. Kress sailed from New York for the biennial council. Inasmuch as the East German Union holds its biennial session at the same time and place, this council will resemble a General Conference session in attendance.
