The Baptist Convention.

The Southern Baptist Convention in
Ashevllle was attended by larger
number OF delegates and visitors than
any meeting in the past. The correct
ed list of the secretary showed 1,00s
delegates present. Besides these there
were Mt least 1000 women present to
attend the meetings of the Woman's
Auxiliary Societies.
The reports from the various de-
nominational boards show that more
work has been done since May, 1901,
than in any previous years history of
the denomination. By an enthusiastic
vote it was decided to undertake a
larger work this year than ever before.
The American Baptist Education So
oiety had paid for endowment Of
schools and colleges S07,055; the col
leges thus helped had themselves raised
S213,042, making total increase in
endowment of S2S1, 1907 in one year.
The nome mission board whose work
is coLfned to the Southern States,
South Carolina not included, reported
the receipt of S9S.950 for the years
work, which is an increase of $4,000
over last year. The board employs 674
missionaries; the baptisms for the year
were $3.50. The year was closed with
$4,000 in the treasury.
The foreign mission board brought
in the best report in it's history. In
spite of foreign wars the work has been
unusually prosperous. Twenty new
missionaries have been sent out and
several others are ready to go. During
the year there have been 1,439 conver-
sions and baptisms, the largest number
ever reported. The receipts for the
year were e178. .439-as against 9158, ,Os3
last year, a net gain Of S17,85e. This
board also was able to report all debts
paid and balance of $4,000 in the
treasury. 1t was by a very hearty vote
that the COnvenl,~n decided to raise
100000 another year for foreign mis-
sions. Equally gratifying reports come
from the Theological Seminary and
the Sunday School Board.
Dr.. j. D. Chapman, of Anderson,
was elected seminary trustee for South
Carolina, and Rev. Lewis NJ. Roper
vice president of the foreign mission
board from South Carolina.
1t acknowledged generally that the
best convention reporter is Rev V. I.
Masters, of Beech Island. He has
written nine page report for the Bap-
tist Courier which appeared in last
weeks issue. 1t is accurate, compre-
hensive,. and sparkling with interest
ing touches from first to last.
