DR. EVERETT GILL
European Representative Baptist For

Up to January 1, 1923, Southern
Baptists had paid in cash on the 75
Million Campaign, their five-year pro
gram for the advancement of the gen
eral missionary, educational and be
nevolent activities of the denomina
tion the sum of $38,918,191.10, accord
ing to a report issued by the general
headquarters office..

Columbia, $143,564.70; Florida. $609,-

Indicating something of the prog
ress which the impetus of the Cam
paign has brought to various phases
of denominational effort in the South,
it is reported that during the three
years of the Campaign period that
have expired, Southern Baptists have
had 150,000 more baptisms than they
did for the three years immediately
preceding the Campaign; organized
3,000 more new Sunday schools with
400,000 new pupils; enhanced the
value of their local church property
by $33,000,000; increased their contri
butions to local causes by $22,000,000;
gave $18,938,862 more to missions and
benevolences, and advanced their con
tributions to all causes by $43,480,490
during the three years of the Cam
paign over what they gave to all
causes for the three years immediate
ly preceding the Campaign.
Gains in Special Fields.
The Campaign has enabled the vari
ous state mission hoards to greatly en
large their programs of state and as
sociational missions within their re
spective boundaries, it is pointed out;
made it possible for the Home Mission
Board to complete its $1,000,000
Church Building Loan Fund, extend
its work among the foreigners, Indians
and Negroes, administer 134,382 bap
tisms, secure 218,371 additions to the
local churches, provide larger equip
ment for its system of 38 mountain
mission schools, establish the South
ern Baptist Tuberculosis Sanatorium,
and greatly Increase its work in other
directions.
Some other gains in the homeland
include the better equipment and
maintenance of the more than 80
academies, colleges and seminaries
ijther than the mountain schools; in
creasing the number of Baptist hos
pitals from 18 to 20, and providing
better equipment and maintenance for
ail of them; increasing the number oi
Baptist hospitals from 12 to 20 and
beginning the erection of three others,
at the same time all the older ones
have been better equipped; while the
number of aged ministers helped has
been doubled and the stipend given
each has been greatly increased.
Mission Work Extended.
In the realm of foreign missions the
Foreign Mission Board has been en
abled to send out about 250 new mis
sionaries, employ over 500 additional
native workers, greatly increase the
equipment in the way of church build
ings, chapels, schools, hospitals, pub
lishing houses and mission residences

If a worm should start climbing a 10
foot pole, climb 3 feet every hour and
fall back two feet, it would take him
9 hours to reach the top. On the eighth
hour the worm would be within two
feet of the top and on the next hour
he would reach the top.
Please unriddle this: I haven't got
it, I wouldn’t have it; but if I had it I
wouldn’t take a thousand dollars for it?
