Facts and Figures.
Mr.. White closed the argument with
a powerful array of facts and figures.
He estimated that during the past year
the missionaries in the field. at pres
ent about 1900. had made an average
of 2,700 converts a week; that even
with their ministrations there are 675,-
100000 heather unreached by any mis-
slonary; and that to put an Ineligible
account of the Christian religion with
in the reach OF every human being
would require 10000 missionaries and
an outlay of S40,000,000 year from
the Christian world, of which the
United States and Canada would have
to supply one-half.
The records show" said Mr.. White.
that every So expended in mission
work during the past year, on the
average, resulted in one conversion.
