Newberg.—We met Oct. 20 and organized the First Brethren's church in Newberg and Yamhill Counties, Oregon. This is a mission point being worked by Eld. Geo. C. Carl, Through his untiring efforts and sacrifices we have a little band of thirteen members. Bro. Carl is our housekeeper. Bro. Edward Withers, clerk; Sister Nellie Carl church correspondent. Bro. J. B. Lahman and wife were with us and aided in the work. We have lovely country to work in, and plenty of it to do. Secret societies and popular Christianity are our great hindrances.—M. F. Woods, Oct. 20.
