The Missions Campaign

By T. E. Bowen

It was announced last week that the Maritime Conference was first in receiving its share of the $100,000 Harvest Ingathering goal. This was a mistake, as Newfoundland won out a few days prior, October 14. The president of Maritime, recognizing this error, writes: “From what you wrote, I judge that Newfoundland has the distinction of being first on the honor roll. Well done for Newfoundland! We share their joys with them.” Surely this is a good word, and an excellent spirit, in which we all join. The list now stands: Newfoundland, October 14; Maritime, October 22. Which conference next?

The council in session here has enthusiastically considered the Ingathering campaign for 1915. It has been voted that the Signs be the medium next year. The goal will be announced when the Mission Board books are closed for 1914.

We are now in the midst of the harvest. These beautiful autumn days may be made days of great blessing to us, to God’s cause at home, and to the waiting mission fields, by every reader of the REVIEW going out among neighbors and friends as a witness and messenger for Christ—revealing his love by working for perishing souls. Think of the thousands in Europe who love this cause equally with us, but who cannot do a work of this kind. If you have not gone out, get some Ingathering REVIEWS, and go. You may then want to go again.
