Getting Money for the Fund

I PRESUME that when a new number of the REVIEW AND HERALD reaches its readers, the majority of them are anxious to see how much has been added to the $150,000 fund. Probably there is not anything that is going through the paper that is read with greater interest than the reports with reference to this fund. The interest seems to be increasing as the figures grow larger. Probably all the readers of our denominational paper are convinced by this time that this fund will be completed, and there is but little doubt but that there will be an overflow in the conclusion.
Since the organization for raising this money is now in operation, why not keep the machinery intact, and continue the work of raising funds for other departments of the cause? Our people would doubtless go right forward with the work, and in this way supply the Mission Board with necessary funds to rush the message forward in all parts of the great harvest-field. The vehicle for raising the $150,000 fund will render just as good service for other funds, when it has deposited the last dollar of the amount suggested with our treasury department at Washington. It would be beautiful indeed for heaven to behold, if all our people would add something to the freightage of this vehicle every week. Why not crowd this line of operation with our gifts and offerings until every nation, tongue, and people has been given the blessed news and truth of the second coming of our Lord and Saviour? WM. COVERT.
