(1) The American Bible Society for the year just ending March 31, 1912, spent for Bible Distribution in the southern states, nearly Twenty Thousand Dollars more than it received in contributions to its current expenses from .those States from all sources, during the same (2) period. The just ending, has year aigufcl -iuf tiro been'one of success distribution of Scriptures, both at home- and abroad. Through the home agoncies more than 3ix#-huu dred Thousand copies were ’distri¬ buted during the year just ending, in more than 80 Foreign Languages brings The latest news from China the information that the distribu¬ tion by our society in that Empire, for the year just ending, will ex¬ ceeding one million copies. The large proportion of these scriptures which have been distributed by sale, in itself is most significant. (3.) The society has never be¬ fore in its history had larger op¬ portunities, nor more pressing de¬ mands, not only in the work of dis tributing the Bible, but in the translation and publication of the scr ip tm . e3 in many foreign tongues, p> or tllis p UV p 0se it i s spending thousands , , of - dollars, - - and - , - , - . n, amount must be largely increased if the society adequately meets its responsibility in this matter. (4.) The income of the society from invested funds, yields about ono-seventh of the amouut it is now spending in its world-wide work. (5.) Unless there is a more gen erous response to the needs of the society on the part of the churchA and individuals, its work will not only be crippled, but of necessity, must be curtailed. This latter would be little short of a calamity. (6.) Ar one of the Missionary enterprises of the church, the so¬ ciety spends thousands of dollars each year in distributing the Bible free to worthy destitute families and individuals, at home and abroad; and-for this purpose n ighes many thousands of without cost to the various Mission Boards, etc, of the several natians. (7.) During the past year the distribution through the South At kntic Agency has been nearly hundred thousand copies. eight foreign languages are repre rented in this distribution. Y T our state received its proportion of these scriptures. (8.) The South Atlantic is doing special work among the foreigners in West Virginia, Vir¬ ginia, Florida and to a less extent in the other states of this agency. Plans are already making for doing this special work among the for¬ eigners of Atlanta. Very respectfully. ARTHUR MANESfc. OMNIA VINOIT IMPHOBUS.' ELLIJAY: GA., WEDNKSD VV, OCT* 2, 1913.
