ROSEAU
We feel that it will be of interest
to the Reaper family to hear a few
words of the zond church officers’ in-
stitute held in Roseau, Feb. 22-24.
The church companies of Williams,
Middle River, and Roseau were well
represented. The many problems con-
fronting the church officers were taken
up in an interesting way. There was
not a dull moment during the entire
cession. We know that the Spirit of
God was with us as we tried to learn
more efficiently to do this work.
We do appreciate the great help
given us by Brethren Andreasen and
Yost, who were ever ready and
anxious to give help in any and all
wavs needed. I am sure that every
one attending the institute went home
with the determination to do more and
better work for the Master, May God
help each one of us to do our part, in
whatever way it may be, in warming
the world of what is just before us.
The evening services were well at-
tended, and a lively interest was mani-
fested by those not of our faith.

The kindergarten children, who have
a capable leader in Miss Margaret
Longwell, have a regular Sabbath on
which to bring extra pennies to pay
the postage on the Picture Roll which
they send each quarter to the N. KE.
India Union Mission, Calcutta, India.
Our new Sabbath school secretary,
Mrs. Frank Yost, has written some
unique and interesting reports during
the quarter. We appreciate the time
and effort this takes, and it is helping
to keep up the interest in our Sahbath-
~ school.
Our superintendent, Brother R.
Zima, proposed the slogan, “100 new
members for the Minneapolis Sabbath-
zchoaol In 1926.” This goal has already
heen reached through the untiring
efforts of Brother Zima and volunteer
helpers who have been visiting those
unable because of illness or distance
to attend, and providing assistance in
getting to rervices, or enrolling them
in the Home Department.
Have you ever visited an exclusive-
ly Young People’s Sabbath-School?
If not, vou are invited to the new
voung people's room in the Minnea-
English  chureh any Sabbath
morning at 10:00 o'clock. The young
people have their own superintendent,
Theron Tommersen, and  zeeretary,
Miss Viola Iverson. Since the new
partition has been placed in the bave-
- ment of the church, dividing a large
room inte two friendly looking meet-
ing places, one for the primary de-
, partment and one for the young peo-
ple, there has been an added interest,
especially among the latter members,
Besides a new piano, there will be new
bookcases and platform funiture,
giving the young people, at last, a
real room for their own. The primary
room is interesting, too, and the boys
and girls enjoy their new room under
the able and conscientious superin-
tendents, Sisters Schaefer and Grace
Peavey.

M.V. ENTHUSIASM WINS
Enthusiasm ran high in the Min-
| neapolis English Missionary Volunteer
| Society, during the last five weeks.
~ Why? The young people are now pro-
vided with a new room in which to
hold their meetings, and it didn't take
them long to find out that a newly
painted and partitioned room—and
dilapidated, antique furniture didn't
correspond. A eampaign was conduc-
ted to secure funds to refurnish the
room. The society was divided into
two groups, the Reds and the Blues.
It was indeed a tense moment when
each Friday evening during the cam-
paign, Mrs. Schacht, the leader of the
society, indicated which side was a-
head by placing a red or blue ribbon
at the front of the room. When the
fifth Friday evening came. the Reds
were positive they were ahead, while
| the Blues were sure they were, but
when the total of $170 was announced
it seemed to make very little dif-
ference which side had won, for all
knew that what they had worked hard
for had been accomplizhed. A new
piano now graces the Migsionary Vol-
unteer room, and in the very near
future there will be a new bookcase,
a table, blackboard, and several other
necessities to make the room attract-
ive and home-like. The losing side is
planning on a social evening in honor
of the winners, Mrs. I". H. Yost,
