One Hundred and Fifty Thousand Dollar Fund

By Walter Harper

For Special Work at Home and Abroad

One Way to Finish the Work

I WILL state that by the grace of God, I have paid my individual quota of the $150,000 fund over and over, directly and indirectly, and recently sent it in again, and now I will suggest a plan by which, if accepted by our dear brethren and sisters all over our land, we can swing this fund around to a finish easily by Jan. 1, 1908, and we shall be greatly blessed in the doing of it. We shall be only too glad we did this thing. It is this: Let each one give one day's work, or wages, between now and December 25, to this fund. (There is no limit, each can give not only one day's work or its proceeds, but several days if God so leads his mind.) I will give the net results of one day's canvassing, some day between now and December 10, to this fund. I hope it will be a large one—one of the largest day's work I ever did. The “surprise party” plan on the $100,000 fund began in California. It was, under God, a grand success. It was contagious. May this be, too. May it start not only in California, but all through the broad harvest-field, and the shout of victory be heard that the work is finished. It can be done so easily, too! Let us lend a willing hand and push it to A FINISH NOW.
