Physicians here have begun a house to house vaccination and every building infected is to be fumigated. fi.; v general progress had been made the British Foreign, Bible Society is not known in every district in the province of Prince Edward Island. The Bible Society is the rock upon which all other societies are founded. The reports to hand state that the closing year of the 19th century has witnessed the largest circulation of the. Scriptures in the history of the society, but against that there is a falling oil' in the receipts, doubtless caused to a large extent by the war in South Africa and the famine in India. During the year 770 colportenrs have been employed and one million and one half copies of the Word were sold translated into353 languages. He depioned the introduction of cheap literature into the home and impressed his bearers with the fact that a taste for the Scriptures should be cultivated. The truths of the grand old Book should be custilled in the minds of all. It should be talked ever and prayed over by every teacher and leader. Rev. G. P. Raymond in moving .the adoption of the report as read by Mr. Oxenham said that the 96th annual report of the British and Foreign Bible Societyindlcates a larger circulation than ever before. Today 25,000,030 people study the same S. S. Lessons, and 2,5tl),000 teachers meet with their classes. During the year 45 additional colporteurs have been employed and today 532 Bible women labor under the direction of missionary societies in India, Ceylon, China and Japan. These Bible women read tc 35,000 women each week and 2,003 are taught toread. Besides 'teaching 27,000 copies of the Word were circulated. Mr. Raymond then dealt at length with the manner of distribution and the unmber of languages into which the Scriptures Were translated. Rev. Mr. Raymond moved that the same officers as last year be re-elected with the addition of John McPhail as Vice President in place of T. C. James, resigned.He also moved the following additions to committee: Joseph Knight, I. T. McKenzie, C. H. Chandler, Artemns Lord. Collector, S. McMurray. Rev.'J. W. McConnell and Rev. D. B. McLeod also spoke at length of the influence of the Bible upon the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. A -f*s__...
