Growth Of BaptIsts.

DR.. A. V. Rowe of Winona, secre-
tary of the Baptist State mission
board for Mississippi, says:
"The Baptist Church in Missis-
sippi has made the best showing in
its history during the past veal" /"
The statistics to be submitted at the
convention will show that there have
been 7,o47 baptisms into the church
during the year, which is about
1000 more than the number shown
last year.
'1n foreign missions the showing
is phenomenal, the increase being II
per cent. over that of last year, with
contributions amounting to about
$4,000.
'In home missions a remarkable
showing was made, the sum contrib
uted being $55,600, which is 35 per
cent. in excess of the amount raised
last year. For State missions we
raised $4,000. Altogether, the
Baptists in Mississippi have good
reason to feel proud of what they
have accomplished during the year,
and at the session of the convention
we will lay our plans for work on a
larger scale next year"
