The Missions Campaign

By T. E. Bowen

The honor roll of conferences still stands:—

CONFERENCE	DATE OF REACHING GOAL
Maritime	November 14
Utah	November 25
Mississippi	December 2

The secretary of the Mississippi Conference, Wm. A. Woodruff, writes a very interesting letter. An extract or two only: “Brother Saxon, a book worker, won out in the home stretch. He blended the two lines of work, and they went nicely together.” “I wish to say a few words with reference to the colored people's efforts in the Ingathering work. They have already sent in about $100. They are still busy, and desirous of reaching their aim.” “Some who thought it would be impossible for them to do anything, were among the most faithful and successful ones. Our people were enthusiastic over the results. In almost every letter received they would want to know what the totals were, and how we were coming out.”

A young lady in Brantford, Ontario, with whom Bible readings were being held, gave $50 to support a native worker in some foreign field.

The president of the Chesapeake Conference, Elder R. T. Baer, writes that the Baltimore church has raised $400. Other churches are also making splendid records.

As 599,421 papers have been ordered, and late orders are still coming in, it has been necessary to start the presses again, on a small edition of 10,000.

We are disappointed that our honor roll has not grown this week, but up to the day of going to press (Thursday) no further telegrams have been received.
