The Need of Evangelistic Workers
The Harvest Is Great—The solemn, sacred message of warning
must be proclaimed in the most difficult fields and in the most sinful
cities, in every place where the light of the great threefold gospel

message has not yet dawned. Everyone is to hear the last call to the

distribution of the working forces. Often the laborers who might be
a power for good in public meetings, are engaged in other work that
allows them no time for active ministry among the people. For the con-

been trained in business lines. There is constant necessity of guarding
