The Presbytery numbers SO
churches. Taking the half of them
whose gifts per member are the
largest, we find: Athens gave per
member, $2.S2; Marietta, $l.sG;
Middleport, $l.4l; Logan, %l.20;
New Plymouth, &I08; New Mata-
moras, 96 cents; Pomeroy, 50 cents;

vile, 81 cents; Berea, 80 cents;
AmesviIle, 5G cents; Carthage, 50
cents; Tuppers Plains, - cents;
Stockport, So cents.
The average gift per member for
the entire Presbytery was 80 cents.
While we ought to have done far
more than we have, yet these fig
ures show Il commnndahIe advante
in the benehcence of the churches,
especially in the line of Home Mis-
sions.
We regret, however, that there
has been loss in gifts to the Board
Of Church Erection.
If there is any one Board which
more than another deserves the
hearty support Of the Presbytery
Of Athens, it is the Board of Church
Erection. This Board has done
much for us and we should remem-
ber our obligations to it.
Meanwhile, We should remem Der
that all these causes are the causes
of our Lord and the cause of his
church and to us comes his words
"Freely ye have received, freely
give"
