Yes. In about thirty days delegation
Of ut least fifty will arrive at the College of

our faith. At present it only affords a
greater strength for people of our faith"
The Rev. S. d. Martin an ex-Baptist
minister from Washington state, was at
the College of Life this morning, and to a

II arrived in Chicago from the west two
weeks ago. l was a Baptist minister, hut
about three years ago learned of DIR. Teed
and commenced to study his doctrine, and
am firm believer in it, and will soon start
out on lecturing tour. l am single, my
wife having died several years ago, / have
not yet turned my property into the gen.
eral fund, but propose TO do so. In the
west we find followers among all classes
and sects. The doctrine is growing in
