Wells Conference Report October 1930

From Karl G. Maeser

John Wells, Conference Report, October 1930, p.83

From Prague we went to Dresden and found that President Edward P. Kimball had been released because of the illness of his wife. He was just getting started in the work, introducing ideas for the development of the missionary work in the German-Austrian Mission. While there we attended the great health exhibition. The Latter-day Saint exhibition typified the words, "By their fruits ye shall know them." The exhibit stressed the Word of Wisdom and its results on the people in Utah. A table had been provided in the room upon which were small folders called "The Word of Wisdom," and one hundred and twenty thousand of these folders had been taken. We then went to the former home of Karl G. Maeser in Meissen and stood in reverence before the house, discussing the life and labors of that great man. One of the brethren said, "What a marvelous work Brother Maeser did for the Church." He was answered by another, "Yes, and what a marvelous work the Church did for Brother Maeser."
