The $300,000 Fund

By W. T. Knox

THE following action was taken by the General Conference Council at Friedensau:—

That during 1911, earnest efforts be made to raise what is still due on the $300,000 Fund.

The importance and necessity of such action was fully realized by those in attendance at the council. While there remain but four months in the year in which to accomplish this work, yet it can be done if it is taken hold of energetically by all. But no time should be lost in inaugurating a systematic and active campaign in behalf of this object.

The following statement gives the portion of this fund assigned to each union conference, and the amount received from each up to July 31, 1911:—

UNION CONF.	AM’T TO BE RAISED	AM’T RAISED TO JULY 31, 1911

Southwestern	22,036.80	3,193.42
Western Canadian	4,027.20	2,581.10
Miscellaneous		4,849.45

Let all now determine that future reports shall show the denomination’s approval of this recommendation of the council, and that the beginning of 1912 shall see this good work finished.

W. T. Knox, Treasurer.
