to provide In the international series

ment were prevented by conserva.

Some friction has developed, and in
part because of II one old member OF

of offerings OF about $4,000, and OF

home and foreign. or abou, double the
amount il had heen raising In carry.
ing out of the instructions the mana
gers of missions decided to make the
stint. for the first year. $3.50 900. or an
increase of s250.u0O. There are $500
parishes and missions, hut until this
last year never more than 1000 have

Episcopal Sunday schools contribute
during Lent little more than sl00, 900.

during the first year is at increase of
SIS 600 on the general fund, 1922 900
from the children and the women, and
10000 from general sources. making
n total of $3.50 600. or about 100000
