THE NEW YEAR.(cid:9) /
Before me lies a land all unexplored;
1(cid:9)
iNo foot of man has left its impress there.
IMy path across this plain God bids • me choose,
And make it straight or crooked as I will.
I(cid:9) I
But right must be the path of those who win
I(cid:9) The approbation of their inmost hearts, /
IAnd smile of an approving, all-wise God.
A goal, then, I must have — a purpose firm.(cid:9) i
A chart and compass, too, I'll surely need(cid:9) /
i(cid:9) To guide my steps across this trackless plain.
Oh, then I'll make my goal a perfect life!
My chart shall be God's Word; my star, his Son! 1
And if, perchance, I stumble here or there,
If sometimes darksome clouds obscure my view,
When clears my sky, I'll press my journey on,
Nor willing turn aside from the bright Star
That points me ever toward my chosen goal —
A perfect moral likeness to my God.
C. P. BOLLMAN.
PREFACE.
NEARLY fifty-one years have elapsed since the organization of this
work, and the progress made during the past half century has been
truly remarkable. The following pages indicate that the organization
of this cause at the present time is arranged as follows: —
Division Conferences (cid:9) 2
Division Mission (cid:9) 1
Union Conferences (cid:9) 26
Union Missions (cid:9) 2
Conferences (cid:9) 129
Missions (cid:9) 108
Educational Institutions (cid:9) 79
Publishing Houses and Branches (cid:9) 37
Periodicals (cid:9) 125
Languages in which Publications are issued (cid:9) 75
Sanitariums (cid:9) 38
Treatment Rooms (cid:9) 7
Food Factories and Cafes (cid:9) 18
Changes are made so frequently that it seems difficult to issue a
directory some portion of which is not out of date by the time the
publication comes from the press. This is necessarily true in a growing
work of this kind covering such a wide extent of territory. It would
be impossible to select a time for issuing this publication when changes
would not occur in conference and institutional directories, for this cause
is continually growing, and growth means change. The difficulty ex-
perienced in collating such material will be understood when it is stated
that after the " copy " for one section of this issue was in hand, and the
type had even been made into pages, further revisions were received by
which one union mission, the Siberian, was eliminated, and its territory
and workers arranged principally under the Russian Union, which was
in turn divided into eastern and western divisions. Other portions of
the Siberian Union were grouped with the European Division Missions.
The historical and statistical tables appear again in this issue, by
reference to which one can obtain an idea of the more important events
and data regarding this movement since its inception.
Directories will be found on the following pages: —
Conferences (cid:9) 5-157
Institutions (cid:9) 158-206
Ministerial Directory (cid:9) 207-234
Historical and Statistical Summaries (cid:9) 235-292
Fundamental Principles and Constitutions (cid:9) 293-309
For reference to any particular division, see the index, page •310.
