Responding to the Roll Call

Closing thoughts from the Ministry back page.

By the Ministry staff. 

Good News!--"'We want you to know that we folk in the field are with you in this endeavor for the uplift of our ministry. The announcement that at last you are to print a little paper, to be entitled The Ministry, as a medium between the field and the Association office, is good news."— J. W. Christian, for Chicago Conference.

Unanimous! —" So far as Western Canada is concerned, you will soon receive a subscription in behalf of each of the workers in this territory."— S. A. Ruskjer, for Western Canadian Union.

Godspeed! —" At our recent committee meeting we voted to supply The Ministry to all the workers in our field. We wish you Godspeed in your work, and I am sure that The Ministry will meet a real need in a very helpful way." — F. G. Ashbaugh, for Kentucky Conference.

Effective!—" The division has decided to pay the subscription price for this periodical to go to all our English-speaking workers for the first year, with the understanding that thereafter each worker will pay his own subscription for the paper. This certainly ought to be an effective means of communication with the workers and a valuable medium in promoting their efficiency as workers."— E. E. Andross, Vice-President, Inter-America.

Generous! —" Our committee voted to supply The Ministry to all ministers and Bible workers. We also voted to share the expense equally with any worker who desires to take the Reading Course."— W. C. Moffett, for Southern New England Conference.

Cooperation!" This is a wonderful step, and we shall be very glad to co-operate to the utmost of our ability. Our conference is placing an order for a sufficiently large club to supply each worker in the Alabama Conference. You may count on us fop full 100 per cent co-operation in the matter of increasing our efficiency and developing a higher standard in the lives and work of all our workers."— A. B. Russell, for Alabama Conference.

Convenient!  I personally feel that the paper will be of material interest to us all, and in much more convenient form than the former method; although we have much appreciated what has been done through the mimeograph pages."—J. F. Piper, for West Michigan Conference.

Success!—" It is our desire and wish to co-operate in every way possible to make the work of the Association a success. We believe the various conferences and institutions in this union will likewise be willing to co-operate with you."—B. M. Emerson, Sec.-Treas. Pacific Union Conference.

Advantage! —" It appeals to us that it would be of advantage to place The Ministry in the hands of all our workers here at our institution, as indicated by the accompanying list."—E. L. Piece, manager New England Sanitarium.

Glad!—" I am glad that you are getting your new publication started, and believe that it will be a great help to our workers in general. Yesterday at our reference committee meeting we took up the matter, and voted to subscribe for ten copies of Tax Ministry."— B. H. Risley, M. D., President College of Medical Evangelists.

Confident!—" Concerning the new periodical named The Ministry, I feel confident this will be a splendid help to the members of the Ministerial Asso­ciation, and I assure you that Emmanuel Missionary College will be glad to contribute toward its success in every way possible."— G. F. Wolfhill, President Emmanuel Missionary College.

Pleased!—" I am pleased with the general plan and make-up of the periodical, and with the convenient table of contents which it contains one can quickly locate any given article, subject, or quotation. I think that this periodical will be helpful to us as workers, and I trust that every conference in this union will Wee that its ministers receive it"— F. H. Robbins, President Columbia Union (writing to his local conference presidents).
