ish, French, Chinese, and Japanese. This will enable you 
to reach every family in your community regardless of 
nationality. What a privilege to be able to take to the 
people this beautiful magazine so laden with precious 
truth, and stiring experiences 
Where you find persons who show special interest, or 
request further literature and helps, note down such ad-
dresses and make them objects of your care and prayers 
in missionary work the coming winter months. 
As representatives of so great a cause, the work of the 
Lord, let us, His children, be neatly yet plainly dressed, 
exemplary in our deportment, cheerful and kind in con-
versation, sincere and earnest in spirit, filled with zeal and 
courage from above. 
In closing remember this is a spiritual and financial 
campaign. Exert an influence 
of the saving power of God 
to lift sin sick humanity of 
all nations from sin to fellow-
ship with Jesus. 
A Few Suggestions 
Remember that without the 
help of our Lord we can do 
nothing, let us take time to 
pray. Pray before you start. 
Pray while going from home 
to home. 
Read carefully the "infor-
mation and suggestion" leaf-
let; it contains much valu-
able help. Read your paper 
through and know interest-
ing items in it to meet all 
reeds. 
In a business man's office 
one day I read "Smiles will 
get you somewhere." Smiles

INDIVIDUAL GOALS 
Spiritual Goal, At least one soul won for Christ. 
Service Goal, At least ten hours of actual solicita-
tion. 
Financial Goal, At least $10.00 gathered for For-
eign Missions. 
Remember our aim in all these goals, that with Jesus 
we win some precious soul. 
or leave a testimony in the 
homes of the people, that will 
lead them to higher ideals 
in thought and life, and then 
solicit their means to ad-
vance God's cause. As a 
matter of fact as you get 
their contributions, you have 
drawn them a little nearer 
the avenue of salvation. 
I am praying that every 
member in the Northern 
Union will arise to share the 
present privilege and respon-
sibility in the 1923 Harvest 
Ingathering Campaign, and 
to this end may the Lord 
richly bless to the salva-
tion of souls at home and 
abroad. 
Remember the date, Sept, 1 
will help us to do successful 
Harvest Ingathering work for God. 
If all people are not pleasant, remember that in every 
home we should leave the spirit of the Master whom we 
profess to follow, and at all times under all circumstances 
manifest Christian courtesy. 
Among the common people, ask for dollars, we aim to 
-make this a Dollar Campaign among the common classes, 
among business and professional men, of course ask for 
larger sums. 
to October 13. 
YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE 
Every member in the Northern Union a worker. 
No shirkers in our territory. 
Not satisfied until we have done our best. 
None DISCOURAGED but resolved to pronounce it HIS 
COURAGE.

THE TUTHILL EFFORT 
About four years ago, Brother C. J. 
Christensen and family purchased 
land ,and located at Tuthill, South 
Dakota. Tuthill is an inland point. 
Brother Christensen will be remem-
bered by many of the readers of the 
Reaper as having served as church 
elder at Ute, Iowa, Hutchinson, Minn., 
Swan Lake, and Colome, South Dak. 
Brother Christensen with his exem-
plary family is a real true witness 
for the message of God. As a result 
of letting their light shine in their 
new neighborhood, an interest devel-
oped. In response to very urgent calls 
from there, the writer conducted a 
ten-day's evangelistic effort in the 
school house at Tuthill, with an at-
tendance ranging from 70 to 100 at 
each meeting. In spite of the fact that 
all were very busy at this time of the 
year, the interest was so great that 
the attendance was very regular. 
We feel confident that in addition to 
the visible results, seed was sown 
which will bear fruit very soon. A 
few in that community are very bitter 
against the truth, but attended all the 
meetings nevertheless. The pastor 
who regularly preaches in that school 
house, was alsopresent and attended 
nearly every meeting. The very fact 
that he did not even attempt to point 
out any week points in the message 
delivered, lead the people to realize 
that he had no Bible evidence against 
our message. 
On Sunday afternoon, August 12, 
we gathered on the bank of a beauti-
ful little stream where the writer had 
the privilege of burying four precious 
souls with their Lord in baptism. One 
additional young man was ready for 
baptism, but it was thought advisable 
to defer his baptism a few weeks. 
Others are studying the message very 
carefully. Brother C. J. Christensen 
conducts weekly studies at which sev-
eral families come together to study 
the word of God. In this way Brother 
Christensen who also serves as super-
intendent of the Sunday school, is able 
to carry the work forward and develop 
the interest. One young man who 
took his stand for the truth during the 
time of our meetings was driven away 
from home and disinherited by his 
father, who is very bitter against the 
truth. We believe this young man 
will be faithful to God in spite of the 
fact that he has been robbed of an 
earthly home and farm because of his 
loyalty •to the truth. 
While at Tuthill, we raised about 
$30.00 Harvest Ingathering funds. The 
writer also spoke at the Memorial 
services for the late President Hard-
ing on Friday afternoon at Martin, 
the county seat. 
I appreciate the many kindnesses 
shown me while at Tuthill and pray 
that God's rich blessings may abide 
with those who are walking in the 
ways of His commandments. I hope 
that the Reaper family will pray for 
our isolated brethren who are deprived 
of many privileges enjoyed by other 
c'.urch members. God depends on our 
isolated brethren to warn the com-
munity in which they live. I trust 
that all are doing as Brother Christ-
ensen has done, and have the privi-
lege of meeting souls in the blessed 
Kingdom as the result of their living 
the truth day by day. S. A. Ruskjer.

MEETINGS AND BAPTISM AT 
BELVIDERE 
August 3, the writer began a ten 
days' series of meetings in a little 
school house sixteen miles south east 
of Belvidere, on the edge of the bad 
lands. Three isolated people were liv-
ing near t'-is school house, and it was 
at their request that the meetings 
were held. During the ten days, we 
had only three evenings which were 
free from thunder and lightning and 
storm clouds. This was quite an ob-
stacle in the way of building up an au-
dience, especially as we were on the 
edge of the bad lands where it is dan-
gerous for people to travel after dark 
in bad weather. 
On the first Friday evening it rain-
ed continually and only a few people 
were out, but our audience gradually 
increased both in size and interest, un-
til our closing meeting, Aug. 12. On 
the last Sunday in the presence of a 
number of friends and neighbors, it 
was the writer's privilege to bury 
three dear souls in baptism. Four 
others said that they had made their 
decision during the meetings to keep 
the Sabbath, and as soon as possible 
to bring their lives into full conform-
ity to the third angel's message. There 
were a number of others who also 
manifested a deep interest in the mes-
sage for this time, and I believe that 
with a little more work put forth in 
this community, that a church can be 
raised up. The results which have been 
manifested thus far come almost en-
tirely from Home Missionary activi-
ties. Surely when we are privileged 
to rejoice in an occasion such as we 
had on the closing afternoon, it helps 
us to appreciate the value of doing 
faithful work among our friends and 
neighbors in the furtherance of this 
Truth. 
As you surround your family altars, 
I would solicit an interest in your 
prayers for our people at Belvidere 
and for those who are interested in 
the truth at that place.

SOUTH DAKOTA NEWS 
The Beck sisters, who have canvas-
sed Lincoln county, and made success-
ful deliveries, are now busy taking 
orders for "Our Day" in Union county. 
The young people of the Bowdle and 
Tolstoy churches who have been at-
tending Plainview Academy in the 
past, under t he leadership of Prof. 
Dollinger, rendered a program Sab-
bath, August 18, in the interest of 
Plainview Academy. The Merkel boys 
of Glenham and also the Litwinenco's 
of Herried had part in the program. 
We were sorry to learn that Belle 
Mundhall and Freda Egger, who were 
canvassing in Sioux Falls,were troubl-
ed with sore throats last week, but we 
are glad they are back in the field 
again taking orders. �
They are de- 
termined to make their scholarships 
before school opens. 
Elder Scriven, and Brethren Reiner 
and Showacy left Watertown Friday 
morning, August 17, for Sioux Falls, 
where they will open the Harvest In-
gathering campaign Monday morning, 
August 20. They plan on spending one 
week with the Sioux Falls church as-
sisting them in raising their $1500.00 
goal. 
Elder S. A. Ruskjer was called to 
NORTHERN UNION REAPER 
conduct the funeral of Delcy Loewen 
at Marion Junction Friday afternoon. 
'The obituary will appear in the 
Reaper later. Our sincere sympathy 
is extended to the parents and rela-
tives who mourn her loss. 
Elders S. A. Ruskjer and E. H. 
Oswald met with the Leola church, 
Sabbat'i August 18. From there Eld. 
Ruskjer went to Sioux Falls to assist 
in the Harvest Ingathering, and Eld. 
Oswald returned to his home at 
Bowdle. 
Through an oversight on our part, 
it has never been reported that on 
July 21, Elder F. E. Bresee conduct-
ed baptismal services at Huron, at 
-which time four persons were bap-
tized, representing three different fam-
ilies. 
We still have a few sets of both the 
Junior and Senior Reading Course 
books in stock. The prices are as 
follows: Junior set $3.25,Senior set, 
$4.25. These books should not only 
be read by the young people, but by 
the older ones as well. 
The tract society has ten August 
Watchman magazines on hand, which 
we will send to anyone for $.90.

It is interesting to note the increase 
in offerings in most of our Sabbath 
schools over that of last quarter. 
Above you will find our quarterly re-
port for the second quarter of 1923. 
Please take notice of what your Sab-
bath school did in comparison with 
the first quarter. It is encouraging to 
know that we raised $519.50 more the 
first quarter in 1923 than we did in 
the first quarter of 1922 and $456.52 
more the second quarter of 1923 than 
we did in last year's second quarter. 
Would it not be splendid if every Sab-
bath-school superintendent and secre-
tary would plan to make the next 
Thirteenth Sabbath-school offering the 
largest we have ever taken in the 
state? Why shouldn't North Dakota 
stand in the forefront on this day? 
Look where the Thirteenth Sabbath-
school offering goes. It is to help the 
people in Russian, Roman, and Greek 
Catholic Europe. Can't we do some-
thing special for this day? For the 
third quarter of 1922 we raised $2,701. 
81. We will have to do our best 
to reach this and we would like to go 
over this amount because in the fourth 
quarter of 1922 we raised $4,726.28. 
This is almost $2,000 more than the 
third quarter of 1922. It would be too 
bad if we would fall short of last 
year's mark. Don't you think so ? 
Well, let us all lift together and help 
the people in Russia this coming Thir-
teenth Sabbath. 
Notice the star schools. There are 
eight of them. This is one more than 
last quarter. That makes us all hap-
py I am sure. These schools have 
reached their thirty cents a week per 
member for the first half year. The 
schools that eacl:ed their quota for 
the second quarter only are as follows: 
Cathay, Dunn Center, Jamestown Eng-
lish, Kief Russian, Taylor Turtle Moun.. 
tains, Wildrose, Devil's Lake, Car-
rington, Hazen, and Rock Lake. Those 
who reached their average of a dollar

THE IOWA SANITARIUM AS 
VIEWED BY A. PRO- 
FESSIONAL MAN 
Service and attention, excelled by 
no other institution of its kind in the 
country, is given patrons of the Iowa 
Sanitarium, which is located in a 
beautiful wooded plot on a high hill 
overlooking the city of Nevada. 
The Iowa Sanitarium was built in 
1908 and opened in 1909 by the Sev-
enth-day Adventists, and its location, 
without doubt, is the most beautiful 
in Story county, if not in Iowa, and 
is ideal for the care of suffering hu-
manity. 
Patients quickly recover amidst the 
beautiful shade trees, grassy plots, de-
lightful scenery, and pure air, all 
characteristic of this institution. 
This sanitarium was formerly locat- 
at Des Moines, and was moved to 
Nevada about 14 years ago. Almost 
miraculous results have been witness-
ed in the restoration of healt", due, 
primarily, to the splendid attention 
 
given patients, coupled with the pleas-
ant surroundings. 
The Seventh-day Adventists have 
many similar institutions throughout 
the country, at Washington, D. C., 
Melrose, Mass., a suburb of Boston, 
at Loma Linda, Los Angeles, Glen-
dale, San Diego, and St. Helena in 
California, and many others in difer-
ent sections of the United States and 
foreign countries. 
In addition to the system of treat-
ments given in other hospitals, the 
Iowa Sanitarium gives hydrotherapy 
treatments and massage. The hydro-
therapy treatment consists of hot and 
cold appliances to various parts of the 
body, hip and leg packs and full packs. 
Included also are electric light baths, 
Russian baths, sprays, douches, show-
ers, salt glows, shampoo, etc., and 
they carry on extensive treatment in 
these lines. 
No creed is known in this sanitar-
ium for everyone is welcome and all 
are accorded the same courteous at-
tention by a corps of efficient attaches. 
The institution takes in a general class 
of patients with the exception of those 
afflicted with acute contagious, and 
mental diseases. A maternity ward 
has recently been established and it is 
modern in every respect. The sani-
tarium is equipped to do X-Ray and 
surgical work, and the operating room 
is equipped with modern appliances. 
Diet at the sanitarium is vegetarian, 
which includes vegetables, fruits, 
grains, and nuts. 
Because of the far-reaching fame 
of the Iowa Sanitarium, patients are 
brouet there from a great distance 
for .treatment, not only because of 
the equipment of the hospital, but be-
cause of its pleasing surroundings and 
the splendid care given them under 
the professional direction of Dr. L. E. 
Elliot, superintendent of the institu-
tion. 
The Iowa Sanitarium occupies a tract 
of 50 acres of high lying, delie t-
fully shaded ground. An academy 
with 14 grades occupies a portion of 
the plot. The Sanitarium has forty 
modernly furnished rooms and patients 
come there from all over Iowa and 
many adjacent points outside of the 
state. 
Dr. L. E. Elliot, the superintendent, 
is a native of Iowa, having been born 
in Page county. For the past ten 
years he has been located in the east,. 
being associated with sanitariums ire 
Boston and Washington, and only 
recently took up work at the Iowa 
Sanitarium at Nevada. 
The success of the institution, should 
it be given to any one individual, 
undoubtedly would fall upon the 
shoulders of G. E. • Leffler, the court-
eous and efficient business manager, 
who looks after the financial end of' 
this big institution with the dexterity 
of a veteran. 
Miss Emma Norton, an efficient 
trained nurse, is superintendent of 
nurses and in charge of their training. 
Mrs. McGee is the retgenologist, and 
superintends all of the X-Ray work. 
She also looks after the laboratory 
work. 
In speaking of the institution as a 
whole it might not be amiss to reiter-
ate that the Iowa Sanitarium and 
Hospital is a new structure of mod-
ern design, nestled among thickly 
wooded surroundings, one-half mile 
south of the city of Nevada, on the 
Northwestern railroad, eight miles 
east of Ames and thirty-six miles 
north of Des Moines on the Chicago 
and Rock Island railroad and is pro-
nounced by those who have seen it as 
an ideal place for health seekers, who 
require rest and recreation. Its out-
side beauty is a true index of the 
beauty within, where a genial air of 
harmony, good will, and home influ-
ence prevails. Among such enviro-
ments patients soon forget that they 
are sick and find themselves in the 
midst of a very happy family. A 
quiet, cheerful, religious spirit and in-
fluence is maintained. This has a 
soothing, quieting effect on irritated 
nerves, and inspires hope in the des-
pondent. 
Modern appliances and convenien-
ces of scientific value in treating 
disease are found at the sanitarium; 
and a great many are there that are 
not found in ordinary institutions. Its 
sleeping rooms are airy and sunny, 
and are provided with hot and cold 
water. �
All rooms have running 
water and a number have private 
baths. The commodious halls, and 
NORTHERN UNION REAPER �
5 
lounging and reading rooms are invit-
ing. A first class electric elevator is 
in constant operation, and the build-
ing is lighted throughout with elec-
tricity. 
The Sanitarium has a private tele-
phone system through which commun-
ication may be had from each room 
to any part of the building and also 
connects with long distance lines. The 
dining room and parlor are comfort-
able. The treatment rooms are the 
last word in sanitation. The nurses 
and attendants are one in aim—and 
that aim is to work for the good of 
those about them, to be of service to 
patient and guest, and to perform 
every service cheerfully and efficiently. 
And, best of all, the Iowa Sanitar-
ium and hospital is not a commercial 
enterprise, as proved by an investi-
gation of the writer. Its aim is 
entirely philanthropic, but, depend-
ing wholly upon the receipts from its 
patients to meet the heavy running 
expense, it is absolutely necessary 
to establish a rate that will enable the 
management to operate without a loss, 
and this rate is indeed most reason-
able. 
The Iowa Sanitarium truly pro-
vides a haven of rest for the weary, 
sick and infirm. 
The above article was written shortly after 
a visit to the sanitarium by Mr. Wilkinson, 
editor of the "Iowa Farm Bureau," a paper

THE RIGHT THING AT THE 
RIGHT TIME 
We are told through the spirit of 
Prophecy that "The essence of all 
right faith is to do the right thing at 
the right time." 
To gather gifts and donations from 
friends and interested parties for the 
support of our world wide missionary 
work through the medium of the Har-
vest Ingathering plan is "a right 
thing". The time set for the cam-
paign in 1923 is Sept. 1 —Oct. 15. 
Hence this is the "right time". 
Then so far as the 1923 Harvest 
Ingathering is concerned, the right 
time for the right thing is the above 
date. 
We hope all our people are supplied 
with magazines and soliciting cards, 
and that plans will be perfected to 
enter heartily and enthusiastically into 
t'-is work and make our returns from 
this source the largest in our history. 
Chas. Thompson.

OUR FOREIGN MISSION 
OFFERINGS 
in The Reaper of August 7, Brother 
A. R. Smouse, our conference treas-
urer, contributed an article giving the 
standing of the Minnesota Conference 
in tithes and offerings for the first 
six months of the year. 
Since that report has been publish-
ed, t' e writer has reviewed a state-
ment from the treasurer of the Gen-
eral Conference giving the standing 
of North America covering the same 
period, which shows that Minnesota's 
standing is about normal with the 
general report, which is about twenty-
nine cents per week per capita of 
church membership. 
I note, however, that for the month 
of June, Minnesota raised in her Mis-
sion offerings an amount equaling 
fifty-three cents per member, or 87.9fto 
of the quota for the month, while 
our general average is but 47.9%. 
Showing that for the first five months 
our offerings were much smaller. 
The thought in my mind and the 
purpose of this artcle is to urge our 
people to keep up their June record 
through their regular offerings. Then 
with the Harvest Ingathering and 
other special offerings during the re-
mainder of the year, Minnesota can 
reach her full quota of sixty cents per 
week per member for the full year. 
Surely no Seventh-day Adventist 
can plan for doing less than this for 
the extension of the gospel into all 
the world. 
The Minneapolis Tribune of August 
9 states that for the month of July, 
South Dakota received in her state 
treasury, $30,000 from "Tax on Cig-
arettes". This sum does not include 
t'-e purchase price of the cigarettes 
consumed, only the amount the con-
sumers contribute to the coffers of 
the state for the privilege of consum-
ing them. 
When we think of this appalling 
amount with other expenses on wast-
ful and injurious indulgences that we 
as a people have been saved from, by 
the power of God in the Message we 
have received, surely sixty cents per 
week is a modest sum to contribute 
to the extension of that Message 
throughout the world. 
I sincerely urge all our conference 
workers, church officers, and company 
leaders to take this responsibility to 
heart. Give it personal and constant 
attention. And let us see to it that 
our great Minnesota Conference reach-
es her full quota to our general Fore-
ign Mission endeavor, is my prayer. 
Chas. Thompson.

WINONA 
We know that the faithful people 
of the Reaper family will be looking 
anxiously from time to time for re-
ports from the various workers, and 
especially from those who are holding 
efforts. The tithe you return to God, the 
offerings you give of the other nine-
tenths which He has entrusted to you, 
and the prayers you offer in behalf 
of the work and workers, all these 
combine in making these soulwinning 
efforts, your efforts. And of course 
you are interested. 
The tent company at Winona co-r-
sists of Elder and Mrs. Rubendall, 
Brother and Sister 0. T. Garner, Miss 
Elizabeth Magnusen, and Miss Vesta 
Rubendall. All are of good courage 
in the Lord and are working and plan-
ning tcgether most 1-armoniously for 
the advancement of the Master's work. 
Brother Garner assists in the speaking 
and directs the music. Miss Magnusen 
who has just joined the company and 
is getting hold of the Bible work will 
remain in the city to assist after the 
tent season is past. Miss Rubendall 
is pianist. 
We are now three weeks into the 
series of lectures and tonight, Friday, 
August 10, Brother Garner will pre-
sent "T'--e Holy Sabbath of the Bible." 
That means that the fight is on in 
earnest. The attendance has never 
been large, 125 being the largest, but 
God is not confined to a whirlwind, 
earthquake or fire. There is a steady 
attendance which is keeping up well, 
and a deep interest has followed right 
up to the Sabbath question. 
So there we are this afternoon as 
the mails take this letter on to the 
Reaper. God only knows, brethren 
and sisters, how many souls will 
stand on new earth soil as the result 
of the Winona tent effort. We feel that 
it is worth every ounce of effort of 
which we are capable to make it as 
many as possible. Help us continual-
ly with your petitions. 
Winona Tent Company.

NOTES OF INTEREST FROM THE 
MINNEAPOLIS SABBATH SCHOOL 
The Minneapolis Sabbath school, un-
der the able leadership of Mrs. C. C. 
Alberts, is enjoying a very prosperous 
and profitable year. Our goal of $60 
per Sabbath is being reached. 
Several devices are used to accom-
plish this in the Youth's and Chil-
dren's Departments. One of special 
interest is in the Primary Department. 
It is a tree in which a nest is placed 
every Sabbath. In this nest, each 
child w'-o brings an offering of ten 
cents besides his regular offering may 
t an egg. One nest has seventeen 
eggs in it and all of them have more 
than ten. When the weekly goal is 
reached, a mother-bird is placed on 
the nest. If any member of the de-
partment brings an extra donation of 
a quarter, a little bird is put in the 
tree. All the nests except one have 
mother-birds. The children are very 
much interested in their tree, and 
truly it is praising God as much, as 
those trees which the Psalmist says 
"clap their hands." 
A word about the Sabbath school 
expense. 
The expense money, and indeed it 
is no small amount, is being success-
fully raised. Attached by a clip to the 
class record envelopes is an envelope 
marked "Sabbath School Expense." 
Occasionally, the superintendent men-
tions this offering, while each teacher 
is supposed to mention it every week. 
The pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters, 
and even dollars that find a way into 
this fund aggregate enough to pay for 
all our Sabbath School supplies. One 
member of our school saved all her 
pennies during the week for this of-
fering. We recommend our plan as 
a good one for any school to follow. 
We had our "Rally Day" July 14th. 
The program took most of the Sab-
bath school time and a part of the 
time of the church services. We used 
the program as given in the worker 
and from the attention shown by the 
audience, we feel sure some valuable 
lessons were learned.

MINNESOTA NOTES 
Miss Pearl Hannen, formerly of the 
conference office, who has been work-
ing in College View and attending 
summer school, arrived in St. Paul 
nriday to assist Brother Bowles in the 
Press Branch, taking the place of Bro. 
Chas. Dammen, who has connected 
with the North Dakota office as secre-
tary-treasurer. 
Miss Hopkins, who has been ill for 
.the past two weeks, was in the office 
again last week. She left for Kasota 
to spend the Sabbath, and planned to 
visit in and near Mankato before re-
turning. 
Brother Harvey Jensen, of Water-
town, S. Dak., who has been giving 
some assistance in the colporteur work 
this summer made a call at the office 
NORTHERN UNION REAPER �

to counsel with Brother Rentfro in 
regard to the work. Brother Jensen 
has been elected superintendent of 
the High school and city schools of 
Bowdle, S. D. 
The funeral of Mrs. Emma Ross, a 
faithful conference church member 
who lived at Milaca, was held Sabbath, 
August 11. Our sympathy is extend-
ed to t1-e sorrowing family at this 
time. We feel the preciousness of the 
hope that Sister Ross' devoted Chris-
tian life will be rewarded by the Life-
giver. S'- e leaves three daughters to 
mourn, Ms. Ben LeDuc, of California, 
Mrs. Carl Peavy, of Minneapolis, and 
Miss Ella Ross, of Milaca. 
It is planned this year to have at 
the State Fair an exhibit of our gos-
pel literature as it was felt that much 
good might be accomplished thereby. 
In connection with the exhibit will be 
conducted a rest room and free check-
ing stand for parcels. It will be lo-
cated in a tent at the south-east cor-
ner of the Agricultural building, and 
just a little way inside t'le main en-
trance to the grounds. All of our 
people and friends who attend the 
State Fair and North-west Dairy 
Exposition are invited to make this 
exhibit their headquarters there, as 
they will be welcomed by those who 
have it in charge. 
On Tuesday night of last week the 
sad news was received of the very 
sudden and unexpected death of Sis-
ter Calvin D. Kinsman of Austin. 
Arrangements were made for the fun-
eral service to be held last Sunday, 
Elder Haysmer officiating. We feel 
sure that their many friends among 
the Reaper family sympathize deeply 
with Brother Kinsman and the other 
relatives in their bereavement. Obit-
uary and further particulars will no 
doubt be published later. 
This Sabbath's offering should be 
a liberal one for the responsibility of 
furnishing a Christian education to 
our children is one of the greatest 
and most sacred that rests upon us 
to-day, both as a people and as indi-
viduals. 
Prof. 0. A. Skau was in the cities 
doing some errands preparatory to 
leaving for Bangalore, India, where he 
and Mrs. Skau will take up work in 
our training school there. 
Dr. R. L. Mantz, together with his 
wife and daughter Eunice, of Cedar 
Rapids, Iowa, visited with Elder 
Weatherly and family, also other 
friends in St. Paul, on Monday of last 
week w'lle returning from a vacation 
trip in the vicinity of Lake Vermillion. 
Elder Thompson visited the church 
and company of laborers at Virginia 
last Sabbath. The series of meetings 
held by Elder Wood and his associates 
in the Lyric Theatre of that city for 
the last four weeks have been well 
attended and it is planned to continue 
for two weeks longer. 
We have two books which are slight-
ly damaged; one "Great Controversy" 
cloth, trade edition, which we are of-
fering at the special reduced price of 
$1.60 postpaid. and one "Our Day" 
full leather, for $1.10. Both books 
have defects on the covers, otherwise 
they are as good as any new book. 
Have you read the book entitled, 
"Will the Old Book Stand", by H. L. 
Hastings? If not, send your' order 
with $1.50 to the tract society and a 
copy will be mailed you immediately. 
Quite a company of relatives and 
friends from the St. Paul English 
church gat" ered at the home of Sister 
Honeywell in St. Paul on last Thurs-
day evening in honor of her seventy- 
ah Erthday. The gathering was an 
entire surprise to Sister Honeywell 
and the evening was spent in a social 
way which was enjoyed by all. As a 
token of esteem on behalf of her many 
friends, she was presented with two 
volumes of our good books. Elder 
Haysmer made the presentation 
speech in which mention was made 
of the many years devoted by Sister 
Honeywell to faithful missionary 
labors in behalf of others, a part of 
which were spent in self-supporting 
work in the West Indies. We feel 
sure that her wide circle of friends 
all unite in wishing her many more 
happy birthdays. 
The following items worth mention-
ing were among the unclaimed lost 
and found articles brought back to 
the office from camp-meeting. If 
any of the owners recognize their pro-
perty from the description given and

"HOW TO PUNCTUATE" 
T'-:e splendid little text, "How to 
Punctuate," by Professor D. D. Rees, 
has been recommended for use in our 
schools by the General Conference Ed-
ucational Department. It is especially 
designed as a correlative text in the 
ninth and tenth grade English classes. 
No one can write well until he is able 
to punctuate correctly his own sen-
tences. The thoroughness of this 
treatise and the plain, understandable 
rules, together with the excellent and 
numerous examples for practice, ap-
peal to both teacher and student. The 
book adds interest and efficiency to 
the English courses. 
The price, retail, is 75 cents; to 
schools and tract societies, 60 cents. 
Order from Union College Press, Col-
lege View, Nebr.

From a Letter received by the Editor 
from Elder N. P. Neilsen we quote 
"We left New York last Sabbath 
about noon. The ocean was quite 
rough yesterday and many were sick. 
Only four were down for breakfast 
yesterday—Mrs. Nelsen and Florence 
were two of the four. They seem to 
be good sailors. I kept my berth and 
"fed the fishes." The ocean is much 
calmer today and we are up on deck. 
We are to land at Bermuda Islands 
about three this afternoon, so may get 
opportunity to mail some letters. 
We are seven in our party—Mrs. 
Neilsen, Florence, Mrs. Matilda Cor-
nell, Prof. C. P. Crager, E. H. Meyers, 
F. Martinez and the writer. Prof. 
Crager is Ed. Sec., of the South Am-
erican Division Conference and is re-
turning, Brother Meyers is Field Mis-
sionary Secretary of the Division and 
is also returning. Brother Martinez 
is to take the book work in Chile. 
We organized a Sabbath school on 
board last Sabbath with Professor 
Crager as Supt. We will be on the 
waters three Sabbaths before reaching 
Rio de Janerio. 
Pray that the Lord may bless us as 
we take up the responsibilities of the 
the South Brazil Union Conference. 
Greet the folks from us. Wishing 
you the blessings of the Lord, I re
