raise 81 1000, 900 as a twentieth century
thank offering. To do this it recon-
mends "a that s50O,000 of the amount be

pastors secure enough money to aver
age that sum from each member and
proba toner; (2) that Sabbath schools

The palm for the largest church of
fertory, according to the Westminste
Gazette, is held by Australia. At tn
recent dedication of the new cathedra
at Sydney, the sum of 912,20O (abou
$751; 00) was taken up. According t

ever collected in the United Kingdom
was at the opening of st. Patrick
Cathedral, Armagh when Father Tor
Burke, the distinguished Dominica
priest, preached. and the offertor
amounted to CT 500 ($37 OOO). Roma
Catholics have always been celebrate
for large giving, and it is expected tina
all these sums will be exceeded at tn
opening of the beautiful new cathedra
at Westminster in June next year.
