An Extra Lift for Missions

By E. R. P.

EVERY true canvasser rejoices in the fact that the Lord helps him to make his own work self-supporting, and enables him to contribute substantially each year from his time and money to help place other laborers in the field, and strengthen our foreign missions.

The Harvest Ingathering plan affords another good opportunity for us to help the missions. One of the finest missionary items in the distribution of literature last year was the circulation of nearly seven hundred thousand copies of the Missions number of the REVIEW. That campaign paid its own expenses, and provided nearly thirty-one thousand dollars for missions. This sum enabled the Mission Board to send twenty-five additional missionaries to foreign lands and support them for one year.

Now these workers must be supported in the foreign field another year, and additional recruits must be sent along to help them. We trust that every canvasser will devote from one full day to a full week, and more time if he is able, in distributing this Missions number of the REVIEW, and in soliciting funds for foreign missions.

Why not order at least one hundred copies without delay, and use them to the best possible advantage during campaign week, November 1-6, and as opportunity may afford later on until the close of the year. E. R. P.
