"I am delighted with the Pass Book.
I know it will be a great deal easier for
me to keep my books straight," writes
the treasurer of a Woman's Missionary
Union in Georgia. The demand for Pass
Books exhausted one supply, but double
the original quantity has been ordered.
With the Pass Book a glance tells what
has been remitted. No treasurer who
values accuracy and his time should be
without a Pass Book. Your name placed
on the other side and this paragraph
mailed to us will secure it.
Forty-eight churches averaged $4 per
member on our books last year, and
thirty-four the year before. For this
year seventy-five would be a small number
to count on for that list, especially
if all gifts for Foreign Missions, no matter
for what department, are sent
through the Nashville office. Another
help toward giving your church the
showing to which it is entitled is for
the individual givers to have their gifts

The valuable men to-day are those
who have specialized. The church that
gave $10 a member last year was a
Forward Movement Church, a church
that specialized on some particular Foreign
Mission work and received reports
from that worn, tor tne support oi which
it had pledged itself. No goal usually '
means no gifts. Specialize, make a
pledge, and receive reports from your
work. Let us tell you about the Forward
Movement Plan. Place name, address
and name of your church on other
side and mail this paragraph to us today.
There is no need to discontinue the
meetings of your Missionary Society if

60 other societies are using them. Name

and association for themselves
and their children. Combine this year
your recreation and the securing of a
better knowledge of Missions. Write
to-day for leaflet.
Our receipts for Foreign Missions last
year for April and May amounted to
$39,977.38. This year for two months receipts
were $63,305.33. With a gain of
$23,327.95 for the first two months, nearly
1,000 churches in the Forward Movement,
over 500 societies using the
Monthly Topic Leaflets, and the Laymen
doing and promising to do greater things
than ever before, $600,000, our goal for
this year, will surely he reached?maybe
more than reached.

MONTREAT MISSIONARY CONFERENCE.
The Montreat Missionary Conference
will be held this year as usual, the dates
being from August 17 to August 2s>.
The plan of the Conference will vary
somewhat this year from that of former
Conferences.
It has been decided, after a full consultation
between representatives of all
the Executive Committees, that a specific
portion of the time should he allotted
to each committee for the presentation
of its work. The first two
days, August 17 and 18, will be devoted
to the consideration of Woman's
Work, and the entire program will be in
the hands of a committee, of whom Miss
Angie Wing, of Macon, Ga., is chairman.
A detailed anouncement of this program
will be published later in the church
papers.
The Committees of Home Missions,
Education and Ministerial Relief and
Colored Evangelization will have entire
control of the program from August 19
to the morning of August 25. Each of
these committees will announce its proOTa
