The $300,000 Fund

By W. T. KNOX

WITH this number of the REVIEW, we give the statement of the condition of the $300,000 Fund, showing receipts to the General Conference, September 1, to be $30,516.32. During the summer we have had most encouraging reports from many conferences of the work being done to raise this fund. Quite a number of conferences report the decision with them to raise their entire portion of the fund in twelve months rather than to wait for three years. This certainly is very laudable and encouraging, and it now looks as if some conferences would succeed.

Early in this year we gave some of our mission fields encouragement to believe that we would soon be able to send them a considerable portion of the amount voted them, that they might begin work on some of their most urgent necessities. The money has been coming in very slowly; but we hope, now that we are in the fall months, and money is being realized on crops, that the brethren everywhere will begin to send in their donations in a more liberal manner. If, in the next ninety days, the treasury could receive $50,000 to $75,000 on this fund, it would be a great source of encouragement to our brethren in foreign fields.

W. T. KNOX, Treasurer.
