That the systematic raising of the $300,000 Fund be begun early in 1910. 2. That the making up of this fund be completed by Dec. 31, 1912. 3. That the responsibility of raising this $300,000 be assumed by the union and local conferences of North America, apportionment being made on the basis of church and company membership, as published in the statistical secretary’s report of membership for 1908. That this membership be adhered to until the fund is raised, and that on this basis the apportionment stand as follows:— Atlantic Union ............ $24,892.80
Central Union ............. 44,097.60
Columbia Union ............ 31,536.00
Lake Union ................ 61,200.00
Northern Union ............ 28,704.00
North Pacific Union ....... 29,073.60
Pacific Union ............. 36,580.80
Southeastern Union ........ 6,907.20
Southern Union ............ 6,417.60
Southwestern Union ........ 22,036.80
Canadian Union ............ 4,233.60
Western Canadian Union .... 4,027.20 By comparing these figures with the amounts received from the various unions, as shown in the report presented above, the progress being made by any union can readily be ascertained. It affords great satisfaction to see that three or four of the union conferences are making satisfactory progress in point of time in the gathering of these donations, which are so important to the welfare of our missionaries; but it will also readily be seen that there are a number of unions that are very considerably behind. The necessities of the foreign fields are such that it is earnestly hoped that from each union there will from now on come in large donations on this fund.
