Mutual Work: The Snowflake Mutuals; The Annual Conference; New M. I. A. Song Book

MUTUAL WORK. THE SNOWFLAKE MUTUALS. Superintendent Joseph W. Smith of Snowflake Stake, writes March 16: "The Mutuals, in spirit and earnest interest, are well up; and I might say, a little beyond high-water mark. A number of the associations are already through with the lessons, with beautiful testimonies of the value of the Manuals. Have just completed a tour of the stake, in part of which I had the pleasant company of Elder LeRoi C. Snow, who seems to be full of the spirit of the M. I. A. Work. I find that our slogan: 'Better order for the Mutuals' has borne good fruits. We have done considerable through the Mutuals, for the Academy Building, and in maDy other lines here at home, we can see the evidences of good work accomplished. The academy, though somewhat crowded in its present quarters, is having a very successful year." THE ANNUAL CONFERENCE. We hope to give particulars of the Annual M. I A. Conference in the next number which will this year be held on June 5 and 6. I In the meantime secretaries of the wards and stakes should prepare and forward their annual reports( the ward secretaries to the stake, and the stake secretaries to the General Secretary, Alpha J. Higgs, Salt Lake City. NEW M. I. A. SONG BOOK. The Deseret News Book store has issued a third edition of the "Y. M. M. I.
