Sabbath School Offerings for 1913

In the March Sabbath School Worker, Mrs. L. Flora Plummer, secretary of the Sabbath School Department, gives a report of the Sabbath school offerings for the first three quarters of 1913, the report for the full year not being yet made up. The results by quarters appear as follows: First quarter, $59,699.05; second quarter, $66,575.94; third quarter, $94,424.91; total for the three quarters, $220,699.90. "The offerings for the entire year of 1912," we are told, "were $228,029.24." This is certainly a very encouraging showing. It means that while the Sabbath schools are studying the good things of the Word of God, they are not forgetful of the millions in other lands who have not yet heard the message of the coming Saviour. The report from which we are quoting closes: "The marked increase in the Sabbath school offerings is undoubtedly due to the conviction in the hearts of the people that this work is to be speedily finished. They know that it takes money to do it, and they are giving liberally."
