To make a general survey of the
economic, social and religious condi
tions in Europe with a view to recom
mending to the Baptists of the South
where and how they can aid most ef
fectively in the reconstruction of that
continent through the Baptist 75 Mil
lion Campaign, a commission, com
posed of Dr. J. F. Love, secretary of
the Foreign Mission Board at Rich
mond. Va.; Dr. Z. T. Cody, editor Bap
tist Courier, Greenville, S. C., and Rev.
Everett Gill, missionary at Rome.
Italy, who is returning after a leave
of absence in this country, and who
will serve as guide and interpreter to
the other members, is now in Eng
land for a conference with the Bap
tists of Great Britain and will go from
there lor an inspection of France and
Belgium.
Another brief conference will he
held with the Baptists of Switz rlar.d,
after which a trip will be made through
Jtaly and a survey of the new repub
lic of Czecho-Slovakia conducted. From
Prague, capital of Bohemia, the com
mission will go into such parts of Rus
sia as are open, and the foreign trip
will be concluded with an inspection
of Palestine, where the missionary
work formerly done in Syria, Persia
and Galilee by the Illinois Baptist As
sociation has been turned over to the
Foreign Mission Board.
There are approximately 4.250 Bap
tist churches in Europe today, with
3,000 pastors and missionaries and 5G6.-
300 church members, it is announced
by the headquarters of the Baptist 75
Million Campaign, and a considerable
sum from this campaign will go toward
succoring needy families of Baptists
and others in the war-torn regions a*
well as in the propagation of the gos
pel and the establishment of Chris
tian institutions there, it is announced.

A modern hospital illustrative of the type of buildings Southern Baptists are
employing in the relief of human suffering.
In their work of relieving human j
physical suffering Southern Baptists
at present own and control fourteen
hospitals and there are under course
of construction and about ready to be
opened at least two more, with consid
erable progress made toward the erec
tion of others. All of these institu
tions are liberally patronized and are
self-supporting but all of them need
to be enlarged in order to meet the
rapidly-growing demands upon them.
The demand for charity work is espe
cially urgent and in order to enable
them to thus render a needed service
to those who are least able to help
themselves as well as to provide larger
facilities for the regular work the ho -
pitals are doing the sum of $4,800,000
has been apportioned to them from the
proceeds to be raised in the Baptist
75 Million Campaign.
This work of relieving the physical
infirmities of men women and chil
dren and thus putting them on the
| European mission, Dr. Love made the
. following statement outlining the pur
: pose of the commission:
‘‘When the call came to help save,
! promote and secure democracy in Eu-
I rope there came a louder call to help
i save, promote and secure evangelical
| Christianity in Europe. That which
| alone will now preserve and perfect
! the democracy for which brave men
| have died on the battlefield of Europe
is the Christianity of the New Testa
ment. Southern Baptists can not iong
er profess X w Testament Christian
ity and decline a challenge like that
; which is now presented to them to
| bear witness to their faith among the
1 peoples of Europe. Our people never
[ before faced such a challenge and such
a responsibility.
“Of course v.e can not go to the men
! and women of Europe who have been
; stripped of earthly fortune and reduced
; to direst necessity with a message of
; Christian love and brotherhood if we
decline in our abundance to carry
.< ome substantial pledge of our love
and compassion. Mothers will not be
able to stay the crying of their little
ones to hear us preach if we decline
to practice the gospel of compassion
and ieed these little ones and build
fires at which they can during the com
ing v,'inter warm their lrosted toes.
Southern Baptists are under the most
solemn obligation to help relieve the
want and suffering of Europe. But if
there were no reconstruction work in
Europe, Southern Baptists have mo
tives numerous enough and strong
enough to compel them to make a com
plete success of the Baptist 75 Mil
lion Campaign. I would therefore, as
my parting word to my brothers and
sisters of the South, implore them to
give themselves to this campaign and
carry it to a triumphant conclusion
during Victory Week, November 30-
December 7.“

ciency and usefulness was begun with

convention in 1890 when the Missouri
Baptist Sanitarium was opened in St.

in a residence with less than a dozen
beds, this institution has grown into
a modern institution with more than
300 beds.

FANNY COLES. SOUTHERN
DARKY.
(The Washington (Ga.) News
Reporter.)
Fanny ('oles, a negro woman,
said to he as black as her name
implies, is under arrest in New
York on the chavge of stealing
silverware from the house in
which she was employed in tlie
metropolis, says the Savannah
Press. But Fanny Foies is very
fortunate. She is from Virginia
and when she committed this theft
in New York—if she did it—she
went hack to Cumberland county,
from which place she had gone to
New York during the misguided
hlaek exodus from the South last
year. She is fortunate in that Wil
liam M. Smith, a prominent law
yer of < 'umberland county, is her
friend. He has gone to New York
to appeal- in her behalf. And the
reason why lie has done so is this
—to quote his language: “Fanny
was our cook longer than 1 can
remember. ”
Fanny is one of the old fashion
ed, coal black, respectful mnm
n os woo is a good cook, who
loves the old home place, who re
spects her employers, who is consi
dered a part of the families and
whose, best friends are the wlite
people around the Smith home,
[who have known her all of their
lives.
This is no isolated ease—the ;if
fection of the white family for the
old and trusted servant. There are
thousands just like it in the .South.
No doubt when Fanny reached
New 5 ork she became bewildered,
eentaiiov she beer me Nnneyp-k
and ri that ‘■tale of mind she may
have filched a few things from that
Fifth avenue home, where she
was not considered one • f the
family. But if Fanny just stole
the stuff in order to get funds to
return to Virginia—well we just
hope the judge who tries her is
one of those old-time Southern
hoys—that s all we hope.
If he is. Fanny Coles will soon
he hack on the Cumberland coun
ty farm mixing waffles in the kit
chen and turning frying chieken
with a long handled fork as it siz.
zles on the stove. No Southern
judge is going to break up a hap
py association like that of Fanny
and Marse V* ill Smith down in
Virginia.
No Detriment.
Toast —I soo that 1 lend typewriter
of yours chews gum.
Crimsonheak —Yes, I've noticed
that.
“And don’t you think it interferes
with her work?”
“By no means. I bad one before her
who didn’t chew gum, and hor spelling
was quite as bad.”

When you feel bilious, sluggish,

Sick people do not get much out of life.
In order to enjoy your meals, to do your
work well, you must be strong and
healthy.
Bale, weak, nervous people frequently
need iron to enrich their blood and to re
store vitality to their system, and a good
way to supply the iron is to follow the
example of Mr. Clay ton Wooten, of Scot
land, Ga., who used Ziron Iron Tonic and
lias this to say about it:
“1 have taken Ziron according to direct
ions and i can truthfully say that it is a
fine tonic. It has done me all the good.
Since I began taking it, I have gained eight
pounds in weight and enjoy eating three
meals a day. 1 shall do all I can to re
commend Ziron.”
Try Ziron! Your druggist sells Ziron
on a guarantee to refund your money if
the first bottle fails to benefit. You can
not lose anything, but very likely will
gain much, by getting a bottle of Ziron,
