The past year has witnessed splendid achievements in this work, the glory of which is all given to God. The banner of truth has been unfurled' in new fields, new con- ferences organized, new missions and institutions established, additional reenforcements provided, and publications issued in languages in which we were not previously publishing. The present arrangement of organization includes the following: — Classification. Number. Union conferences (cid:9) 23 Union missions (cid:9) 4 Local conferences (cid:9) 112 Mission fields (cid:9) 99 Educational institutions (cid:9) 90 Publishing houses and branches (cid:9) 38 Periodicals, 121, in 28 languages. Languages in which publications of all kinds are issued (cid:9) 70 Sanitariums (cid:9) 76 Treatment rooms (cid:9) 37 Food companies (cid:9) 9 Grand total institutions (cid:9) 250 Grand total union and local conferences and missions (cid:9) 238 Mission work is now carried on by Seventh-day Adventists in the same countries in which sixty-two other missionary societies are oper- ating, except the following: Arabia, Assam, Borneo, Cyprus, Eastern• Sudan, Eskimo, Madagascar, New Britain,, am (cid:9) West Central Africa, and in the latter country self-supporting work is carried on at Loanda, Angola. The following pages record the names of conferences, missions, or- ganizations, and institutions, and of those connected therewith, through- Out the entire world, so far as can be ascertained at the time of publi- cation. Only a brief examination of these directories is sufficient to indicate something as to the growth during 1911. The growth of this cause, however, is clearly shown in the statistical tables appearing in the latter portion of this work, where the development of recent years is indicated accurately for various departments of work. Frequent changes in the organization of conferences and their boun- daries, in the establishment of institutions and their location, etc., have made necessary the re-drawing of maps of Union Conferences for this work. Designations are employed throughout these maps for the pur- poses indicated on the opposite page. 2:zr For changes made in directories while the work on this book was in progress, see page 245.
