Religious Liberty Day 
The religious liberty appeal is not 
a new thing under the sun. We are 
all more or less acquainted with the 
aggressive program launched by the 
Religious Liberty Department. 'We 
stand in need, however, of being re-
minded of our personal responsibility 
relative to the movement. As senti-
nels of God, are we discharging our 
duties faithfully and promoting the 
principles of religious liberty adhered 
to by the remnant church? This is 
our opportune time to study carefully 
and circulate the Liberty Magazine. 
Prompt action is needed to increase 
the subscription list. First of all, the 
magazine should be in every Seventh-
day Adventist home, and then we 
should solicit our friends and neigh-
bors and secure their subscriptions. 
At the recent Autumn Council the 
following action was taken: 
WHEREAS, The time when civil 
and religious liberties are being ruth-
lessly assailed and constitutional gov-
ernment guaranteeing human rights 
is threatened in many countries; and 
WHERE.A.S, The Liberty Magazine 
is so ably defending the heritage of 
liberty for all men and setting forth 
the danger in well intended but mis-
guided legislation which menaces our 
constitutional liberties; and 
WHEREAS, Public enlightment and 
education in the fundamental princi-
ples of constitutional government are 
the principal means of preserving our 
blood-bought heritage of freedom 
for all men; therefore, 
RESOLVED, 1. That we set apart 
the month of January, 1938, for a 
campaign in all our churches in the 
United States to increase the circula-
tion of the Liberty Magazine, and 
that the goal be one subscription for 
every church member. 
2. That the Home Missionary De-
partment and the Pubishing Depart-
ment cooperate with the Religious 
Liberty Department in making this 
campaign a success. 
As you study the urgent need, you 
will realize it requires united action 
to make the campaign a real success. 
The annual offerings for the religious 
liberty work is to be received Sabbath, 
January 15, 1938. Liberal donations 
will make it possible to send the 
Liberty to men of influence in res-
ponsible positions. We are very anx-
ious that the Lord's heritage give 
prayerful study to this campaign and 
work "while it is day: the night com-
eth when no man can work." 
It was further voted at the Fall 
Council that each church set a goal 
for the Religious Liberty offerings of 
an amount equivalent to 25 cents per 
church member. Notice, that is to be 
the average. Of course, some will 
have to give more in order to bring 
up the average. We solicit your 
prayerful cooperation in this cam-
paign, and trust that you will all 
bring a liberal offering at the time 
appointed.

An Appeal from our Church 
School Teachers 
Our teachers and superintendents in 
council at Nevada, Iowa, some time 
ago, expressed a fear that there is a 
growing tendency toward lowering the 
standards in our schools and in many 
of our homes, with respect to thea-
ter attendance, dress, temperance, and 
other principles of living; and desir-
ing to make an appeal to our mem-
bers, ministers, and school boards, 
to stand more firmly behind them iu 
holding up these standards in OM 
schools and among our youth, adopted 
the following resolution, which you 
may take as a real heartfelt appeal 
on the part of the ehuureh school 
teachers of the Northern Union. I 
believe this appeal will be apprecia-
ted by our ministry and by the par-
ents, and that they will be glad to 
know our teachers desire to renew 
their determination in combating the 
influences of the world: 
We, the church school teachers anu 
superintendents of the States com-
prising the Northern. Union Confer-
ence of Seventh-day Adventists, az,-
sembled in institute at Nevada, Iowa, 
November 19, 1937, do reaffirm our 
allegiance to the standards of Chris-
tian living held, by the Seventh-day 
Adventist church; and we most ear-
nestly appeal to the membership of 
our churches throughout the union, 
and particularly to the members of our 
church and school boards, to stand 
unitedly with us by practice and pre-
cept in carrying out in our schools 
these principles, specifiically with re-
gard to the use of tobacco, the wearing 
of jewelry and make-up; and atten-
danceat moving picture houses and 
theaters. �

Liberty Day 
Sabbath, January 15, has been set 
aside in North America as a special 
day for religious liberty. A very in-
teresting program has been prepared 
for that day. We sincerely hope that 
all of our ministers and church leaders 
will plan for a special meeting on that 
day. 
A liberal offering will be taken at 
that time for the purpose of carrying 
On religious liberty work with our 
Liberty magazine. Each conference 
has sent out full instructions regard-
ing the whole plan. As a new feature 
in the plan the union conference com-
mittee recommends that wherever pos-
sible we send the. Liberty to all busi-
ness men who have donated $5.00 or 
more to our Ingathering campaign. 
We believe that these men who give, 
so liberally to our cause from year to 
year should be remembered in this 
way. The Liberty magazine is a good 
magazine to give to them as they make 
their first contacts with our literature. 
Let us work together to make this 
effort all it should be in the great 
plan of God.

Joy in Heaven 
The Saviour, in speaking of winning 
the lost, tells us that "there is joy in 
the presence of the angels of God 
over one sinner that repenteth." We 
know from our own experience that 
there is joy in our hearts as we see 
souls coming home. Nothing in all of 
our experience can equal that joy that 
2 �
NORTHERN UNION OUTLOOK 
surges through the soul whom Jesus is 
using in saving a man or woman from 
eternal death. 
The Lord wonderfully blessed us in 
our union in the winning of men to 
Christ during the past year. We there-
fore feel greatly encouraged to go on 
during another year in response to the 
call of God to win one more during 
1938. If we wish to see that accom-
plished, we must begin to work in that 
direction and use every means placed 
into our hands to reach that objective. 
"And other sheep I have, which are 
not of this fold: them also I must 
bring, and they Shall hear my voice; 
and there shall be one fold."

Library Corner Stone Laid 
The corner stone for Union's new 
library was laid Thursday, December 
23. The ceremony began at 10:30 
A. M. with a parade of nearly 400 
people, including a police escort, the 
Union College band and medical corps, 
business men, faculty, members of the 
board of trustees, and groups of stu-
dents from various states. 
On the speaker's platform were 
seated: Hon. R. L. Cochran, Gover-
nor of Nebraska; Hon. Oren Cope-
land, Mayor of Lincoln; Arehie Furr, 
president of Lincoln's Chamber of 
Commerce; J. F. Piper, president of 
the college board; E. A. Kremer, presi-

Yost, assistant professor of religion; 
and E. N. Dick, head of the history 
department. 
Governor Cochran, the principal 
speaker, declared, "Today marks the 
opening of a new and greater era for 
Union College. The new building 
can be looked upon as a monument 
to the college's record of achieve-
ment of forty-six years, and a token of 
service to come. Nebraska is proud 
of Union College, the contributions 
it has made to the State and to the 
country; protid of the college's growth 
and progress despite the obstacles that 
faced the institution in a pioneer. 
 
State. To overcome these obstacles re-
quired tremendous faith on the part 
of the church which maintains the 
college, faith in its mission and faith 
in our State. That faith has been 
justified amply." The Governor fur-
ther stated, "An outstanding educa-
tional institute, Union College serv-
ing twelve States, will be able to ren-
der even greater service because of 
the facilities to be afforded by the new 
library." 
Mayor Copeland said in part, "This 
building will be one of the finest ex-
amples of civic and religious coopera-
tion in which Lincoln has had an 
opportunity to participate, a cooper-
ative effort in which every contri-
butor feels a personal pride." 
Mr. Furr paid high tribute to the 
sacrificial progress of the college anu 
told the congregation of the exce,-
lent report which the Chamber's in-
vestigating committee made when the 
question of finances for the library 
first came up. He further said, "it 
is to your credit that the more we 
know of you, the more we appreci-
ate what you are doing and the great-
er respect we have for you." 
Other speakers were Elder Piper, 
Mr. Hilts, and Mr. Kremer. The in-
vocation was pronounced by Elder 
Yost. 
Articles to be inserted in the cor-
ner stone were handed by Mr. Hilts 
to Mr. Schilling, who received them 
in behalf of President Andreason,

will be placed in the college museum, 
with an inscription. Into the corner

Training for Life and Service 
Christian education is a great ad-
venture. It is an adventure because it 
is not easy. It is hard. It requires 
energy, determination, ambition. It 
is the sort of thing that appeals to 
red-blooded men and strong women, 
who know that life is not easy if it 
° i•s to be lived well; who know that life 
if it is to be lived for the Master, must 
be lived as the Master lived it. It is 
not the sort of thing that appeals to 
persons who do not wish to pay a great 
price as did Jesus. 
, Christian education is an adventure 
of daring because it is so difficult to 
achieve. The world as a whole is not 
very much interested in it. Much ot 
. the world despises it—in its true 
form and manifestations. Many for-
. ces and influences are opposed to it. 
To engage in it, therefore, is diffi-
cult and requires courage. 
Union College can continue to oper-
a ate only as long as its instructors, 
students, and contituency realize the 
great proportions of the tasks, and 
will unitedly work toward its accom-
plishment. It needs students who are 
willing to sacrifice much in order that 
they may receive a Christian educa-
tion; students who believe in higt 
standards of living and thinking, ca 
service and scholarship—standards 
worthy of 'their Master — and who 
• want to attend a college where such 
standards are maintained. It needs 
students who will unite in opposing 
eVery iatingnee which might make 
the realization of such ideals impos-
sible. 
Such students Union College would 
welcome to its campus the coming 
semester. With such students it will 
not fail to meet its mission.

St. Paul Investment 
The Sabbath school of the St. Paul 
English church has thus far reported 
the largest Investment returns for 
1937. Mrs. Melvor, the superinten-
dent, had charge of the Investment 
program, and it was a real success. 
It was given during the church hour, 
and the whole church responded won-
derfully to the appeal when the mem-
bers brought in the results of their 
Investment project. It was very evi-
dent that the Investmetnt had been 
strongly promoted during the summer 
and fall, instead of being entirely 
dependent upon an offering taken at 
the end of the program. I think we 
can well follow the example of St. 
Paul in our other schools throughout 
the conference. Success comes by 
persistent promotion in the school*, 
and by personal, individual contacts. 
It looks as though St. Paul will 
receive the beautiful blue and gold 
1937 Investment banner, as they are 
now leading the next closest school 
by a little over $50.00. Congratula-
tions to you St. Paul, on your splendid 
record.

Albert Lea Convention 
The new church at Albert Lea was 
the scene of an interesting home mis-
sionary convention on December 18. 
Elder Peugh and the writer arrived 
for the convention on Friday evening. 
The first thing on the program was 
a demonstration by the men's seminar. 
One of the young mien gave a short 
sermon on the law of God and then 
the other members gave expression to 
their reactions and criticisms. These 
men are getting some very practical 
experience for lay efforts. More of 
our churches should have such an 
organization. The convention closed 
Sabbath afternoon. The afternoon 
was spent in general instructions to 
church officers, the organization of the 
church for missionary work, and in 
answering a large number of questions 
that had been passed in, on all phases 
of church work. A box of "Voice of 
Prophecy" tracts was ordered for sys-
tematic distribution this winter. Our 
Albert Lea members are very happy to 
have a beautiful new church in which 
to worship and they are laying plans 
to each win a new member in 1938. 
We admire the initiative of this 
church and pray for their success Al 
the "Win One Movement."

K A T E Albert Lea—Austin Broad-

1420 and power of 250 watts, will be 
the channel through which a series of 
Bible lectures will be presented be-
ginning January 2, Sunday morning at 
9:15 o'clock. The present contract 
runs for five months. The programs 
will be given every Sunday morning 
from 9:15 to 9:45. Listen for the 
"Voice of Prophecy." 
The members of the Austin church 
have shouldered the complete financial 
responsibility of this program for the 
present contract. As the matter was 
presented to the Austin church, it 
was only a matter of a few minutes 
until the whole amount had been sub-
scribed. There is a genuine spirit of 
missionary activity in this church. The 
members of the church are not should-
ering this large financial load without 
sacrifice, as they are carrying on a 
regular heavy missionary program and 
also a church school. I believe that 
this is a forward step, in that each 
church should feel a difinite responsi-
bility to warn its surrounding com-
munity. There is no better way of do-
ing this than over the air, for many 
will never hear the message other-
wise. This station reaches well over 
the territory in South Minnesota, and 
it is hoped that God will richly bless 
these messages aver the air. Letters 
from those who here these programs 
will be much appreciated.

News Items 
The conference committee and the• 
annual auditing committee met in the 
conference office in St. Paul, Decem-
ber 20. The accounts of all confer-
ence workers were audited for the 
past year. The conference operating 
budget for the coming year was also 
very carefully studied and adopted. 
The Minnesota Conference has now 
raised $16,756.90 in the Harvest In-
gathering. This places us $1,006.90 
over our conference goal for the year. 
A few more dollars may come in be-
fore the books are closed. We great-
ly appreciate the splendid cooperation 
of our ministers and lay members, and 
we thank our Heavenly Father for His 
abundant blessings. 
Our sincere group of colporteurs 
have very faithfully put in their time 
even during the holiday season. They 
report 519 hours, $404.15 sales, and 
$781.35 in deliveries for week ending 
December 25. We especially request 
the earnest prayers of all of God's 
people in behalf of our colporteur 
evangelists during the winter months. 
The friends of Brother B. 0. Engen 
will be interested to know that he 
suddenly became seriously ill about a 
week ago and had to be rushed to 
Rochester for an operation. A blood 
clot had gathered on his brain as the 
result of his serious auto accident 
some time ago. The specialist removed 
a large blood clot from the brain and 
he immediately began to improve. 
He is still in a serious condition, but a 
letter just received from Sister Engen 
says that he is doing as well as could 
be expected. They earnestly desire the 
prayers of their fellow workers and 
church members. 
Some very interesting reports are 
coming in from busy layman who are 
holding cottage meetings among their 
neighbors and friends. Many others 
will want to begin this line of work 
as soon as the new year has opened. 
Thousands of tracts and Present Truth 
are being ordered by churches for 
their literature campaigns. 
Elder E. A. Piper reports a good in-
terest in his hall meetings in the city 
of Virginia. He also reports that they 
have their church redecorated inside. 
Brother A. L. Bietz is planning 
for another baptismal service in Man-
kato on the last Sabbath of January. 
Elder Schierman has a good interest 
among those attending his meetings 
in the Park Avenue church in Minn-
eapolis. Many have joined the bap-
tismal class and are preparing for 
baptism. He reports that there has 
been an excellent increase in mission 
offerings and tithe in the Minneapolis 
English church over 1936. 
Elder V. E. Peugh spoke at tha 
Anoka church on Sabbath, December 
25, He reports that even though the 
roads were very icy the members were 
well represented at the Sabbath school 
and church service. An interesting 
thirteenth Sabbath program was ren-
dered during the Sabbath school hour. • 
Elder C. E. Wiest plans on opening 
a series of Sunday evening evangelis-
tic meetings in the Junior Pioneer Hall 
in St. Paul. His first meeting will be 
held January 16. Miss Florence Kim 
mel has been invited to assist him as 
Bible worker.

Watchman. While I was canvassing 
others in the room he pointed to tue 
subject titles on the cover and smil-
ed as though he could hardly wait to 
read his magazine. I promised to 
bring him some free reading matter. 
He certainly appreciated it. I sent 
up a prayer that the Lord in His own 
way, would cause him to know the 
way he should follow in order to 
have eternal life.

News items 
Elder Roth visited the Huron, Swan 
Lake, and Sioux Falls churches am-
ing the last ten days. He reports a 
deep interest in the cause of Goa 
everywhere. 
The Missionary Volunteer leader of 
the Swan Lake church gathered all 
of the young folk together for a fel-
lowship meeting in the home of Bro-
ther and Sister Roy Flyger. Not only 
the young people enjoyed this gather-
ing, but the parents also seemed to en-
joy it to the full. 
The' effort in the Y. M. C. A. hall is 
progressing very nicely in Sioux Falls. 
Over two hundred were present last 
Sunday night as Elder Skadsheim 
spoke on the "Four Horsemen". 
Special music was furnished by a 
young lady violinist of Augustana 
College, and by a mixed quartet com-
posed of Professor and Mrs. Aldrieu 
of Brookings College, Elder J. H. 
Rhoads, and Mrs. Skadsheim. Elder 
Skadsheim is planning for a baptism 
soon. 
Elder S. A. Reile had a baptism of 
twenty on Sunday, December 19. 
They were candidates from Tolstoy, 
Bowdle, Roscoe, and Mound City. 
So far this year 130 have been bap-
tized and received into church fellow-
ship by profession of faith. We hope 
we shall be able to reach the 150 mark 
before the year is over. 
We are pleased to note that many 
of our colporteurs are sticking faith-
fully to their divinely-appointed work 
in spite of cold and stormy weather. 
The Lord is greatly blessing these 
faithful ones, and they have found 
several interested people just recently. 
Elder J H. Rhoads visited the 
Sioux Falls church Monday, December 
20, and gave assistance to the church 
school as, well, before returning to 
the office. 
Misses Mavis Ching, Prudence Ort- 
ner, and Grace Clement of Water 
town, are among the Plainview stu-
dents who have the pleasure of spend-
ing their vacation at home. 
Brother Robert Brown, our field 
secretary, has recently been visiting 
colporteurs in the north central part 
of the state. 
Elder R. F. Bresee organized a 
church at Batesland, South Dakota, 
with sixteen members. The Sabbath 
school attendance is from twenty-
five to thirty. If weather conditions 
had permitted, Elder Bresee would 
have had another baptism ere this, 
but in these cold climates we have 
to abide the springtime for baptism. 
May the Lord bless this new churcu 
in the sisterhood of churches in the 
South Dakota Conference. 
All reports from all senior and jun-
ior missionary volunteer societies 
should be in the hands of the secre-
tary promptly at the close of the year. 
The average American family pur-
chases nine books each year, and has 
two magazines coming weekly to the 
home. What books did you buy last 
year? And where did your magazines 
come from? How about the 1938 
Missionary Volunteer Reading Cours-
es, and the Youth's Instructor for 
the coming year? 
Notice: Early in December we 
found by looking through our petty 
ledger file, that we had some forty 
accounts consisting of 5c for a quart-
erly, 15c for a deluxe Morning Watch 
calender, $1.00 for this and $1.25 for 
that, etc. We like to be accommodating 
to the constituency and charge items 
for short periods of time, but we fine 
mat frequently people forget to pay 
for these items; and since it is contrary 
to the Book & Bible House policy to 
carry charge accounts with individuals 
other than colporteurs, I wonder it 
we might be permitted to request 
that everyone be so kind as to accom-
pany orders with a remittance, beginn-
ing with the new year, and thus save 
us the osubarrasment of violating the 
Bible House financial policy. We be-
lieve that you will be glad to cooper-
ate with us in this matter. 
S. E. Ortner. 
Sioux Falls M. V. Activities 
Someone has said that "the only 
difference between a rut and a grave 
is in their dimentions." The Sioux 
Falls' young people are resolved to 
keep alive and to stay out of the rat, 
and are enthusiastically busy with 
a definite program for soul-winning. 
Under the guidance of Elder M. N. 
Skadsheim they have recently organ-
ized a seminar which meets each 
Monday night for inspirational and 
practical study. They are busy pre-
paring outlines for sermons and Bible 
study. The best part of the story is 
that they are actually going out each 
week and are really giving studies 
and sermons. Besides this, they are 
contributing substantial support to 
the evangelistic program which is be-
ing conducted there by Brethren 
Skadsheim and Gackenheamer. 
Heavy church responsibilities for 
1938 have been placed on some of our 
young men there. Use your young 
people. Appreciate them and pray 
for them, and they will) not disap-
point you. 
J. H. Rhoads. 
Liberty 
How sweet the word to the Ameri-
can-minded citizen ! And how infinitely 
more sweet to the Christian Liberty! 
"And proclaim liberty throughout all 
the land unto all the inhabitants 
thereof." (Lev. , 25:10) were the 
words of the Lord to His people. 
These words have not changed their 
meaning, though the practices of peo-
ples and nations are changing very 
rapidly. 
Eternal vigilence is the price of 
liberty. We must educate, educate, ed-
ucate the people on the divine prin-
ciples of liberty. This can be done 
most effectively by a liberal distri-
bution of Liberty Magazine. Sabbath, 
January 15, has been set aside for 
a special Liberty Day. Programs are 
sent to churches and isolated for the 
occasion. We know that these pro-
grams will be observed faithfully by 
all church leaders. 
The special offerings taken on that 
day will be used for subscriptions 
to Liberty. We ask all churches to 
send us the names of leaders of pub-
lic opinion in their neighborhood, to-
gether with the funds, and we will 
carefully go over the lists of names 
making sure that there is no dupli-
cations of subscriptions. 
May the Lord bless you as you 
Study this important phase of our 
great work.

The Napoleon Effort 
Our evangelistic effort in Napoleon 
has been a real experience for our 
members and ourselves. Mrs. Kuehne 
and I arrived here a week before we 
started the effort. A church building 
had been bought and our people were 
made very happy to have a house in 
which to worship God. 
Our faithful members at Napoleon 
had been without a church building for 
a long time, Immediately after the 
church had been moved from the 
country to the east side of the town, 
our people began to show their appre-
ciation by working like busy bees 
scrubbing, painting, roofing, etc.; and 
that from early in. the morning until 
late in the evening. 
Our good sisters did all the palm-
ing and cleaning on the inside while 
our brethren worked outside, putting 
on the new roofing and doing the 
necessary repair work. Since we were 
to have our effort in this church 
building, our people had to work 
very hard to get it ready in time, 
nevertheless, they finished everything 
just in time except the, outside paint-
ing. A half hour before the writer 
preached the first sermon, Brother J. 
L. Flemmer arrived with the benches. 
He had gotten stuck in the snow but 
we were very thankful to God that 
he arrived with the benches in time 
for the meeting. 
This is our fifth week in the effort 
and the Lord is blessing. During the 
last week the weather almost stopped 
us from going on, but our people did 
not stop praying and our friends are 
'coming regularly. We are glad to re-
port a real interest, although we are 
working in the face of opposition. 
Some have taken their stand and this 
• rejoices our hearts, but there are 
others who are much interested and 
for these we are working and praying. 
So we work on diligently, praying 
earnestly for a rich harvest of souls 
in Napoleon. 
Hans R. Kuehne. 
Visiting the Churches 
The churches in the northwestern 
part of the state were glad to have 
Elder and Mrs. Wall pay them a Visit 
the last' part of November and the 
first of December. 
We started from Minot where five 
meetings were held over the week-
end November 25-27. Elder L. Hal-
swick, who has charge of the foreign 
language work in the West, met with 
us in Minot and also visited the two 
Russian churches in Butte and Max. 
After these first meetings, Elder Hals-
wick went on to the west coast while 
we continued our visit among the 
churches, meeting with the church at 
Kenmare the following Sunday. Mon, 
day we held meetings in Crosby. We 
were very happy to see all the mem-
bers come out to these meetings. 
From Crosby we made our way to 
Williston where Elder Wall spoke in 
the city court room. The meeting was 
well attended by outside people and 
a stirring sermon was presented. El-
der I. C. Schmidt had held a series 
of meetings and the interest created 
by Mrs. Floyd Van Allen had deepen-
ed. Two days were spent with tire 
Russian church near Williston. 
Friday night and Sabbath, Decem-
ber 3 and 4, we met with the Killdeei 
church. This was the beginning of 
the Week of Prayer and we had a 
wonderful day on Sabbath when we 
had several meetings. We were glad 
indeed to meet Elder Litwinenco at 
this place. He is a former Russian 
worker from North Dakota, and we 
greatly appreciated his help in the 
meetings. After we left, Elder Lit 
winenco arranged to hold other meet-
ings in Killdeer. 
From here we made our way by car 
to Max, where a meeting had been 
appointed for 1:30 p. m. on Sunday. 
Here two meetings were held and, as 
at Williston, we also had the church 
election. 
On the following Monday afternoon, 
we met with our faithful company 
of believers at Great Stone. I am 
sure that we had a meeting here 
which will be long remembered by 
those who were present. The study 
given by Elder Wall on " What hoes 
it Mean to be Crucified With Christ", 
touched the hearts of all present. 
Then on December 7 we Made our 
way with the car in the storm tie 
Butte, where we were to have a meet-
ing in the evenin.•. We were all sorry 
that we could not carry out our plans 
here because of a storm which made 
the meeting impossible. We are den-
nitely planning, however, to have 
meetings in Butte and Kief during the 
first part of the new year. 
While this trip was rather-stren- 
uous, We were glad to meet the faith-
ful brethern in this message, and we 
thank them for their kind hospitality 
shown to us while we were with them. 
Our Russian brethren are of good 
courage and desire to see the mes.sa.g.., 
go forward with greater and greater 
success. 
We are planning to conduct an ef-
fort in the Butte territory together 
with the local elder, Brother Tarasen-
ko. Some of these meetings are to he 
held in the homes of the people, arm 
we will invite them to meetings at 
the church at Butte for the week-end. 
This will give us opportunity to talk 
with the people heart to heart in tilt 
homes. We hope this kind of effort 
will be the means of bringing many 
souls into the message, and solicit the 
prayers of our people that God will do 
a great work among the Russian peo-
ple of North Dakota. 
V. Tkachuk. 
The Effort at Kathryn 
Our people in North Dakota who 
have been watching the reports from 
Kathryn, and who have been praying 
for the advancement of the message 
here, will be glad to know that the 
work is going steadily forward in 
this village. �
Though many of its 
citizens, it seems, have definitely steel-
ed their hearts against the call of 
the Spirit, yet there are others whose 
hearts are open and who are eager to 
learn the truth. 
At 'present we are holding four cot-
tage Bible studies, a week, and have 
good' prospects for at least two more. 
At some of these homes, the people 
invite in their neighbors; and it is 
really inspirational to see them gather 
-to study God's word. At one place, 
after about the usual length of a 
study, we suggested adjournment for 
the evening; but, no, they wanted to 
go on; and one lady said she thought 
she could study all night and not grow 
weary. 
Then we have two meetings a week, 
besides the regular Sabbath services, 
in the chapel—a Bible study and pray-
er meeting on Friday night and a 
lecture on Saturday night. Our chapel 
is an answer to prayer. Here at Kath-
ryn we have much reason to believe 
that God hears and answers the pray-
ers of His people. It was plain to 
see that the goal sought by the en-
emies of the truth was to automati-
cally stop our work here by closing 
up all meeting places against us; and 
it seemed for a time that they weie 
NORTHERN UNION OUTLOOK �

about to succeed. But the Lord heard 
our prayer and provided for us 
building. It is a beautiful little cha-
pel, with a seating capacity of about 
sixty—just the right size for the win-
ter months. 
No thought weighs heavier on the 
minds of our believers here than that 
the work must be speedily finished in 
this place. We realized that other 
places need to be warned and that the 
work must go on. Beginning with the 
new year, under the directions of a 
newly-elected missionary leader, ag-
gressive plans for the advancement of 
the cause are being laid by the church. 
It is our earnest prayer and expecta-
tion that there will be a much larger 
baptism here in the spring than there 
was last fall. We solicit the prayers 
of our brethren throughout the State.

Miller—Neuens 
Miss E. Fay Miller, of Fargo, North 
Dakota, but formerly of Topeka, Kan-
sas, became the bride of Mr. T. P.

on Thursday, December 9, the cere-
mony being held in the home of Mr. 
and Mrs. J. H. Marden, of Fargo. 
Rev. W. D. Swanson, of San Fran-
cisco, officited, and family members 
witnessed the service. The bride is 
a sister of Mrs. L. C. Quaife. of Fargo. 
Mr. Neuens has been a resident ot 
Valley City for many years and is 
well known in this community. Mr. 
and Mrs. Neuens are at home in Val-
ley City.

The strangest thing! Rain in De-
cember! Yes, that is true, for is was 
actually raining here the morning of 
December 21. 
The church is planning to build a 
baptistry in the dining room. The 
students and teachers are contributing 
money to help this project. Finan 
cial aid for it will also be appreciat-
ed from friends who may desire to 
help. 
Elder D. N. Wall, our conferecm 
president, visited us a few days age. 
He told us of several experiences 
of our workers in Europe, and we 
learned that our work was now be-
ing carried on in 649 languages. We 
extend an invitation to Elder Wall to 
visit us again. 
On Friday evening, December 17, a 
group of students gathered for tin, 
_ . 
last seminar meeting of this year, 
1937. The work of this organization 
is progressing, and many interesting 
programs have been given. Sunday 
 
they held a meeting at the Hillsdale 
Community Hall. 
We were happy to have Elder 
George Loewen with us for a visit. 
On Sabbath he invested thirty girls 
for work they have done in the pro-
gressive classes. Both the girls anu 
boys have been working hard, and 
soon another large class will be ready. 
Mrs. Zumbaum and Mr. Peters have 
been keeping their groups busy learn-
ing all the requirements. 
New officers for Sabbath school and

On the evening of December 18, the 
Scheyenne River Academy chorus, un-
der the direction of Miss Olivia Har-
der presented a cantata, "The Light 
of the World" in the academy chapel. 
After the chorus hummed "Silent 
Night", the audience stood while

Baptism at Sioux City 
On Sabbath, December 25, five more 
members were added to the.Sioux City 
church, four by baptism and one 
on profession of faith. This brings 
the total to thirty since the close of 
the effort in August, and there are 
still others who plan to take the 
step in the spring. We rejoice to set) 
such a fine group of people added to 
the church. Included in this number 
were seven complete families, one of 
which paid $100 tithe and offerings at 
one time, even before the family of• 
four was baptized. When people are 
truly converted, there will be no with-
holding of the Lord's money. The 
earnestness and faithfulness of these 
new believers puts many of us to 
shame. Now they are working hard 
to give this message to their relatives. 
Let us pray that these new ones will 
continue to develop in Christian 
growth, also that their devotion and 
consecration will help to encourage 
others. 
W. R. Archbold. 
Another Layman 
Brings in Souls 
"This is the story of Mr. and Mrs. 
Johnson, a colored family of the John-
son Funeral Home, who became inter-
ested in the message. About three and 
one-half years ago, Brother Leland 
Nichols began leaving Signs of the 
Times, at the home, which were eager-
ly read from week to week. Early 
in the spring of 1937, while at the 
Cedar Rapids church one Sabbath, 
Elder W. A. Howe mentioned the fact 
that there was a colored family here 
that was very much interested in the 
truth. 
"Later he made contact with the 
Johnson family, making arrangements 
for Bible studies to be carried on by 
my wife and me. The studies were 
continued during the summer, the in-
terest growing. On account of 
wife taking sick, I could not continue 
the studies for a while, but Mr. and 
Mrs. Johnson are now attending nearly 
all of the Week of Prayer meetings 
and, with future studies, I believe 
they will come into the truth. 
"The Lord be praised for the work 
of the Signs of the Times. I am glad 
to have been used by Him in giving 
studies, and pray that the Lord may 
use me in the finishing of His work in 
this sin-cursed world." 
Byron Augustine. 
Value of the Review 
A few days ago I called on an 
aged sister who suffered a stroke six 
years agog and has since been. con- 
8 �
NORTHERN UNION OUTLOOK 
fined to her home near Sloan, Iowa. 
I was agreeably surprised to learn of 
her knowledge of the advance of God's 
work, and was made happy to see 
how she retained her hold on spiritual 
things, although unable to attend 
church. Then she told me how she 
looked forward to regular visits of the 
"Outlook" and the "Review". She 
spoke of the various workers as if 
she were personally acquainted witn 
them. 
When I ask her how long she had 
received the Review she stated that 
she had subscribed regularly for 49 
years. Truly, those who keep our pub-
lications in their homes are bound to 
the message by ties that neither time 
nor distance can break.
