HINTS TO TRACT SOCIETIES

A SUMMARY.

In the following summary of tract and missionary labor performed during the past quarter, by the tract societies, a decided improvement on that presented for the preceding quarter will be noticed in the matter of reporting, both on the part of societies and members. All who are interested in this branch of the work can but hope that this change for the better will become more and more apparent, until a summary is presented in which not only every society, but every district in this country is represented. Such a representation of the missionary family would indeed be cheering, and could but increase the interest of all in the work. Some societies have favored us with a report in advance of their quarterly meetings, which, for good reasons, have been delayed. Another encouraging feature is the addition of new members, which has been made to nearly every society.
Conferences: Wisconsin; Iowa & Nebraska; Illinois; New England; Maine; Vermont; Kentucky and Tenn.; Maryland; Georgia; Kansas; Texas; Indiana; Missouri; Ohio; California; Michigan; Total. The table reports: Number of Districts; Number of Members; No. Reports Returned; No. of New Members; Families Visited; Letters Written; Subscriptions for Periodicals; Copies Sent on Trial; Periodicals Distributed; Annuals Distributed; Pages of tracts Distributed; Books Pres. to Libraries; Money Received.
In connection with this statement, which does not include more than two-thirds the labor that has been performed in the time represented, it may be well to glance at the progress made by the cause of present truth during this time, which is largely attributable to the labor of the tract societies. Formerly the advancement made in so short a time was scarcely discernible, but it is not thus now, and never will be again in the history of this work. In this country there has been a steady, uniform advancement; the truth has been widening, deepening, extending its borders throughout the wide field, requiring broader plans, and more ample facilities in its various departments. Scores of individuals have embraced the truth in every direction, and it is impossible to give a correct and definite statement in regard to it.
In Europe the progress has been more marked. Judging from what we know, the efficiency of our missions has doubled within this time. Publications in three different languages are now issued from Bale, where they are printed by our people. Men have been raised up to aid in presenting the truth until in at least five different countries the living preacher may be found proclaiming the third angel’s message, besides others who are preaching the Sabbath and other truths as far as they understand them. In Egypt, different parts of Italy, and other countries, persons of influence have embraced the truth as the result of reading matter, particularly LES SIGNES DES TEMPS, that has been sent to them. Thus the work is moving on and greater developments may be expected in the next three months than we have seen during that time in the past. These things are sure indications that the great day of the Lord is hastening greatly.
Tract and missionary workers, our time for labor is rapidly passing. Each year, each quarter, each month, as it passes, is bringing us so much nearer the time when the destinies of all will be sealed. The faithful servant, who is improving with care the talents committed to his trust, can exclaim with John, Rev. 22:20 as he sees evidences of the near approach of the Just One, “Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” In comparison with the future, these are the days of his toil, sadness, and weariness, that are passing, which will soon give place to the bright and glorious morning of immortality. But, if it be days of unimproved opportunities, neglected privileges, days wasted in seeking worldly objects from selfish motives, that are passing, what a work is being wrought for repentance! To each of us, in this respect, they are what we make them. Let us be wise, and improve the present in being faithful over the few things committed to our care, that finally we may receive the approval of our Lord.

AN APPEAL FOR OUR FRENCH PAPER.

68 Müllerweg, Bâle, Suisse, March, 1878.
To the Secretary of the V. M. Society at Battle Creek, Mich.
We send you a package of our French paper as specimens, and ask your co-operation in its circulation among the French people. The paper is intended to be a pioneer, being free from anything liable to prejudice a candid investigator, and we believe it will give general satisfaction.
We are so far away from the theater of action that we are not remembered as other periodicals of our denomination are; but we greatly feel the need of your sympathy and help. At present we have but few paying subscribers, and it is our desire to make the paper self-sustaining as soon as possible. By the aid of our friends in America, and what can be done here, with the blessing of God, we trust this object can be accomplished. But this is not the chief object desired. The greater the circulation, the greater will be the good done. Time is short, and what is done must be done quickly. We are in a world of wickedness, and have to battle against odds; and the united efforts of all our people are needed in the spread of the message in all languages. Many of the French people in America are Protestants; and if such can be favorably impressed, they will send the paper to their friends in France, and by this means many may be reached. We hope to see much accomplished among the French. The subscription price for LES SIGNES DES TEMPS, sent to America, is $1.15, but it will be furnished to the T. and M. societies for 75 cents for clubs or for new subscribers. The business can be done through the REVIEW Office.
We have but little to report, only that a foundation is being laid for a great work which willbe accomplished in God's appointed time. We have the composing of our paper and tracts in our own hands, and trust the time is not far distant when the sound of a press will be heard daily, printing the warning message to this generation. Dr. Ribton is rapping, as it were, at the gates of Rome, that the message may gain an entrance at the very seat of the beast. Surely we have reason to take courage, and go forward. I trust we may all catch the spirit of the message, and not faint until the work is done.
J. N. ANDREWS, per Wm. Ings.
NOTE. In response to the above, the V. M. society of Battle Creek have subscribed for 50 copies of “LES SIGNES” and will use part of those first received in sending sample copies to other Vigilant Societies.

WHAT WE WOULD LIKE TO SEE.

One thing I would like to see, and my mind has been exercised upon this subject for some time. I would like to see, in California as well as in all of our State Conferences, a goodly number of our people doing what a few are doing with their means. Some are so shaping their worldly affairs as to have a considerable part of their property in ready cash, so that when calls for means are made on short notice, they can step in to fill the gap, loaning their means until others can come in with their donations to supply the lack.
If a few of our brethren and sisters had their means in that shape, and could invest in various enterprises at short notice, either at a small interest or without interest, it would be a great help, and our cause could move on, in its mighty workings, financially unembarrassed.
Bro. White, as we all know, has for years stood thus, ever ready to shift his means from place to place, that the cause might go on freely. About four years ago, my mind was especially exercised in regard to this matter. I felt it a pleasure to sell my pleasant home in California, and since that time I have, for the most part, kept that means invested either in tents, meeting-houses, the Signs Office, or other enterprises connected with the cause. Some of this money has drawn a small interest, but much of it has been and is now thus invested without interest. I esteem it a privilege to be able thus to help a little in this cause.
The work of truth is increasing in its practical operations; more men and women are needed to come forward with their means and place it in the gap, as Bro. White has been doing all the way along. May the Lord move on hearts to be ready to donate of their means according to their ability, and fill the gaps by loaning their means as above suggested, that all the machinery of this glorious work may move in beautiful harmony.
We are without doubt in the time when the great day of the Lord is upon us. The little flock is being gathered to whom it will be said: “It is your Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom.” We are addressed in these solemn words: “Sell that ye have, and give alms: provide yourselves bags which wax not old, a treasure in the heavens that faileth not.” Luke 12: 33. What greater evidence can we give to the world of our confidence in the truth, and faith in the Lord’s coming, than to use our means so that it will tell in advancing, unembarrassed, this glorious truth? Worldly schemes are failing; confidence in men is weakening; banks are breaking; but he who invests in the cause of present truth is investing in that which is not like a worldly scheme, but has, as its security, the success and permanence of the cause of God.
Some of our people, in times past, have been urged to thus invest their means in this cause. Instead of so doing, they have chosen to invest in doubtful enterprises. They have not only brought upon themselves much perplexity and care, but there is a prospect that they may lose interest and principal in these worldly schemes. Let us take warning, and not waste our Lord’s goods, but invest where his name and cause may be glorified, and souls may be brought to his truth. May we move humbly in the fear of God, seeking in all things to glorify him.

Conference Committee Plans Camp-Meeting Funding and New Tent

The subject of the camp-meeting for the present year was introduced. After remarks by several of the brethren in regard to raising means to defray the expenses, it was voted to let the camp-meeting committee estimate the amount to be raised; after which the president of the Conference could appoint one in each church to collect the amount that he thinks that church should raise.
The subject of buying a new forty-foot tent was next discussed. After remarks by the brethren, it was voted to buy a tent and to raise the funds in the same way as the camp-meeting fund.
The meeting seemed to be interesting to a larger number than usual.
Adjourned to call of chair.

It was recommended that the V. M. Society of Oakland take, in addition to the number given the society by individuals, 10 copies of the French paper, LES SIGNES DES TEMPS. A donation of $7.50 was made the society to meet the expense.
It was also voted, to have 1000 copies of the next issue of the Supplement published at Battle Creek, devoted to the missionary work, forwarded to THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES as soon as issued.
Adjourned to call of the chair.

POSTAGE ON PAPERS AND TRACTS.

The workers in our V. M. societies are spending much time and earnest labor to send our tracts and papers to those that may be induced to read, and it is a pity that the cost of the reading matter and the time devoted should ever be lost by carelessness in putting on the proper postage. Some may not be aware of the fact that, although letters without sufficient postage are either forwarded or returned to the sender, packages of books and papers, if insufficiently stamped, are usually thrown into the corner and eventually pass to the paper rag purchaser.
Librarians and individuals sending out large quantities of reading matter by mail would find it greatly to their advantage to have a medium size of letter scales.
To those sending out papers and tracts the following rules may be of service: The present law requiring one cent for every two ounces or fraction thereof, of strictly printed matter, on our publications amounts to the following:—
Our ordinary tracts and pamphlets, with light wrapping, require one cent for each 72 pages or fraction thereof.
Signs and Reviews require one cent for a single copy and one cent additional for each additional two copies. Count ½ cent for the wrapper and ½ cent for each copy of the paper. Two copies will not go for one cent, because with the wrapper they weigh over two ounces.
Reformers, Tidendes, and Heralds, require one cent for each copy, with ordinary wrapping.
The College Record requires the same as the Signs. The Instructor a trifle less on large packages.

The Reports.

ONE who examines the reports of the T. and M. workers cannot fail to remark their diversity, and the opportunity given for each to exercise his peculiar talent in the work. For instance, the report of one is found to consist almost wholly of “Letters Written”; that of another, of “Families visited”; while a third has neither of these items, but gives a large number of “Periodicals Distributed,” or, it may be, “New Subscribers.”
Thus, while one cannot do the same work as another, there is still something for all to do. Let us each find our work, and do it faithfully and perseveringly, remembering that “there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit,” and all seeking the same end, the salvation of souls.

DOES IT PAY?

Does it pay to spend time and money in the missionary cause? Let us see. A lone sister in Kansas gave her old REVIEWS to a Methodist neighbor to read. The woman read them, but her husband would not stoop to read an Adventist paper, so they were pasted on the side of the house. The man was a great smoker, and would sometimes tear off a small piece of paper to light his pipe, and as he was going to the stove he would read what was on it. He soon became interested, and would go back and try to tear off the paper to get the whole of the article. He would then get his Bible to see if it was true. He finally embraced the truth, threw away his tobacco, and is now an elder in one of our churches, and has the REVIEW to read weekly without tearing it off from the side of the house.
Did this result pay that sister for her old REVIEWS? I think it did. Now, instead of being alone, she can attend meetings on the Sabbath with a live church. The Lord can bless his truth, if it is pasted on the side of a house.
Hear what a director has to say: “I have just returned home after spending nearly two weeks in making a tour through the district, and am glad to be able to return you as good a report as I do.” “I staid with one family that came out fully on the truth from reading the SIGNS alone, and I never met a warmer reception.” He then inclosed twenty names of new subscribers to our periodicals: 2 for the REVIEW, 3 for the SIGNS, 5 for the REFORMER, and 10 for the INSTRUCTOR. Do you think it paid to send the SIGNS to that family? Will obtaining twenty paying subscribers for our periodicals amount to anything? Who can say that such labor does not pay better than preaching? All have talents; are all using the talent God has given them? Remember the man with the one talent, and his reward.
I believe that our T. and M. society is accomplishing more in Kansas than all our preachers. Interests are being raised all over the State, and calls for the living preacher come from every quarter. The grain is already ripe. The T. and M. society is reaping, and the ministers are gathering the bundles. May God speed the work. J. N. AYERS.

A Missionary Item.

One pleasant afternoon last March, I took passage on a Southern-bound train for the quiet little town of S. About midway of the coach I noticed a gentleman supporting an emaciated lady. Feeling deeply for her, as she reminded me forcibly of my own condition four years ago when I left home for our good Sanitarium, given up by my friends to die, I determined to speak with her. I found a vacant seat in front of a lady friend who has an invalid daughter, and solicited her to subscribe for the REFORMER, with the Manual as a premium. The lady and gentleman above referred to seemed to be interested in our conversation, so I passed them a Manual, which they thankfully received.
At this point a news boy came along and abruptly told me that I was not to interest passengers with reading matter, and that I was infringing upon his rights. Feeling embarrassed by his incivility, I took my books from the gentleman; but before I left the car he gave me his address for the REFORMER and took the Manual. He resides in Mississippi. So here is an opportunity for sending a copy of the SIGNS accompanied with a missionary letter.
My old friend also gave me her name as a subscriber for the REFORMER.

Tract and Missionary Society Report from New Sweden, Maine

According to the report of the T. and M. society for the last quarter, in New Sweden, Me., there have been nearly four thousand pages of reading matter distributed, six subscribers have been obtained for THE YOUTH'S INSTRUCTOR, twelve for THE SVENSK ADVENT HÄROLD, and about fifty Annuals have been sold in the vicinity.

RAP, RAP, RAP.

We knock at the door of every librarian of the T. and M. Societies, this week, with a very important request. It is in reference to the circulation of the REVIEW. How shall those who ought to have it be induced to take it? You have all seen in past numbers of the paper, a statement of the astonishing negligence of some Sabbath-keepers in this respect, and the evil results that flow from it.
Those who fail to take the paper lose spiritual life, and the REVIEW loses their support. And the very matter which these persons ought to have, and which the REVIEW contains for their benefit, they lose because the paper never reaches them. The object of our call we will explain under three heads:—
1. What we do. We send you a list of all those taking the REVIEW in your church.
2. What we want you to do. We want you to compare this list with the Sabbath-keepers in your church and vicinity, and thus learn how many of them are having the REVIEW; and then solicit earnestly all those who do not have it, to become subscribers at once. We urge this on their account. It will not make a cent’s difference pecuniarily with any one connected with the Publishing Association whether they take it or not; but it will make a great difference with them, and the cause cannot advance as it would if all had sufficient interest in the enterprises connected with this work, to take the church paper of the denomination.
3. What we want. We want a prompt return from these list papers containing renewals from those whose subscription has expired, and the names of those who have not been taking the REVIEW, who should have it, as permanent subscribers.
The request. Will you co-operate with us in this matter, in the manner here indicated?
U. S.

COLLECT

There are two ways of managing the finances of the T. and M. societies. One way is to pay no attention to collecting till the end of the year, and then find the society deeply in debt and the individual bills so large that they cannot be paid, thereby crippling the society for the ensuing year.
The other way is to collect from individuals and churches promptly each month, and forward the money each quarter to the offices of publication. The SIGNS is furnished to tract societies in clubs, on the installment plan, at the nominal rate of $1.50 per year. This offer was made with the understanding that the monthly installments should be paid promptly to the State secretary, and that the proceeds should be forwarded quarterly to the SIGNS Office.
It is much easier for the individual to pay $1.00 per month for his club of eight copies, than for him to pay $12.00 at the end of the year. Such a course is necessary in States that are not numerically and financially strong. Some States of the latter character have already, for clubs of SIGNS, run up a bill of $500 or $600 since January, 1878. We are glad to see their zeal and earnestness in the work, and wish all the States were coming up as well; but the only way for these States to come out with credit to themselves is for the T. and M. officers not to allow the clubs to get behind in their installments, but to collect promptly, and each quarter forward the money thus received to the SIGNS Office.
Promptness and energy in circulating the SIGNS we are glad to see, and the SIGNS Office will do all it can to put it in the power of all to engage in this work; but we also say to the T. and M. officers, and would urge this upon them: Be prompt in collecting, and you will find there is greater satisfaction given and better work done. J. E. WHITE.

PREMIUMS

“THE WAY OF LIFE” is sold to the tract societies at $40 per hundred, when sent as freight or by express, to be used as premiums. If sent in small quantities, or singly by mail, the price is $1.00.
“The Household Manual” is sold in large quantities, at $25 per one hundred when sent as freight or by express. If sent by mail, 75 cents.
The “Child’s Poems” is furnished at $20 per one hundred. This book is designed as a premium to go with THE YOUTH’S INSTRUCTOR. There are also prizes offered to those who canvass for the INSTRUCTOR. Those obtaining ten subscribers will receive a valuable little book entitled, “The Hard Way.” Any one obtaining twenty subscribers will receive two books “The Hard Way” and “The School-boy’s Dinner.” These two books will be furnished to the tract societies in quantities, at 30 cents each.
Those obtaining fifty subscribers for the INSTRUCTOR will receive a map called, “Bird’s-eye View of Palestine.” Those who desire to canvass for prizes should state the fact to those with whom they do their business. When canvassing for prizes, the “Child’s Poems” can be used as a premium. The premium is for the subscriber, the prizes for the canvasser.

PRICES OF PERIODICALS.

In obtaining subscribers for our periodicals, the regular prices should be maintained. The HEALTH REFORMER is $1.00 per year. The REVIEW AND HERALD, $2.00; the INSTRUCTOR, 50 cents. Those canvassing under the direction of the tract societies, and in their interests, can give the premiums with the periodicals at the regular price of the periodicals. The Publishing Association charges the societies, for new subscribers thus obtained, 50 cents for the REFORMER, and 25 cents for the INSTRUCTOR. If the REVIEW is sent at the expense of the tract societies, they are charged $1.50 per year, also the same for the SIGNS.
The Way of Life is best adapted to be used as a premium for THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES, and the Manual as a premium for the REFORMER; but there is no objection to using the Manual with the SIGNS or the REVIEW, and the Way of Life with the REFORMER, if it be desired. When these premiums are used with the SIGNS, the full price for the SIGNS ($2.00) should always be paid.

PRICE OF PREMIUMS.

When the premiums are sold by themselves, not with our periodicals, the prices are as follows: The Manual, 75 cents; Way of Life, $1.00; Child’s Poems, 30 cents. The Association offers these premiums at reduced prices to favor the tract societies in their efforts to increase the circulation of our periodicals. We cannot believe that any of our tract society members will take advantage of these offers to get periodicals themselves, at half price, by changing the address in the family or by selling the premiums under price, thus injuring their sale and not accomplishing the object in view, namely, the increased circulation of our periodicals.

POSTAL GUIDE.

We advise every State secretary and every V. M. secretary to hand to your postmaster 50 cents and request him to order for you the April, 1878, number of Houghton, Osgood & Co.'s Official Postal Guide. If you prefer, you can order through the Review or Signs Office.
This number contains, (1.) The rates of postage to every country in the world; (2.) The names of all the post-offices in the United States alphabetically arranged, and the county of each; (3.) The same list divided into States; (4.) A list of all the counties in the United States.
Having this directory, many of the errors in sending papers can be avoided. It is very important that this kind of work should be done correctly.
