Mission Boards Sound Alarms

Three large mission societies which end their fiscal years within three or four weeks are the American board, the foreign body of Congregotionalists, the Foreign Christian, representing the large copal, At this time. less than a month Disciples body. and the Protestant Epis- before the end in the casesr of two Of them the outlook is anything but favor able
 Disciples were tempted, says a statement just issued, to make larger plans this year than last, owing to the Laymen's Mission ary Movement and the increased prosper ity obtained in the middle west. but fhey desisted, although there were importunate appeals from the fields. At the end of nine months disciples find POP fewer churches to have contributed. and re- ceipts to be s1O,000 behind last year. An effort was announced to make the total S50o,000 but the society says 1t sees little hope of attaining it unless there is im- provement.
 As already reported, the Congrega tion- alists are sounding notes of alarm with the fiscal year within three weeks of it's close The threatened deficit is not due to larger budgets based on larger expectations, but to actual decline in re- ceipts from churches and individuals. The Episcopal society is s67, GOO ahead in it's receipts with an additional s25,000 in a forward movement fund. The gain named is no more than has averaged for the last 10 years, and S125,000 not S25, 600 was the forward fund goal for .hs year in total of s50o,O0O within three years Recent laymen's campaigns were for for eign missions, but home and foreign contributions are affected precisely the same with no marked advance in either to date.

The Biggest Campaign Yet

Men of. prominence in the professions and business of the United States and Canada are lending their names and giving personal attention to an effort to put into heads and hearts of men and boys more knowledge of the Bible higher ideals of conduct, and greater inclination to work In their religion. Their common plan Is the men and religioun movement, which opens its campaign in St Paul and Minneapolis the first week in Octo- Der.
 It is not ministers plan but scheme wholly in the hands of laymen, Its serious character is seen from the fact that be- hind 1t James G. Cannon, the New York banker, R. A. Long, the famous Kansas City lumberman. c. E. Nllfiken, the millionaire developer of the Maine forests. Fred F. Pasker and Frank liar vey Field, New York lawyers in Wall street. James H. Post, with the Have meyers In the sugar trust, James M Speer the greatest linen merchant in America, Edward H. Bonsall, the Phila- delphia banker, and men who have helped to make their respective cities like F.. M. McBrier of Buffalo, Ralph w. Har- bison of Pittsburg, James D. Husted of Denver and Benj. F. Edwards of St. Louis.
 Giving up thir vacations, SIS men of the stamp of the foregoing just met for week on Lake George and day and night during that time earnestly planned the campaign. There were present men from the Canadian northwest, and the Maritime provinces of the dominion. Men were also there from New York and Philadelphia. Some even got leave from Washington and its reciprocity bill, not then passed, to go and talk religion
 Men who are leading in this venture in- clude MT. Fred B. Smith of the Inter- national Y. M c. A., MT. Hubert Carleton of the Brotherhood of St. Andrew, Mr. Fayette l.. Thompson of the Methodist brotherhood, MT. David Russell, just here from South Africa, and W. R.. Lane of London. At the recent meeting leader was the Rev. pr. J. w. William son of the Third Baptist church of St. Louis. So striking was his address that 1t has been printed and is to form a campaign document.
 The business plan which these Christian laymen have adopted marks an advance fin religious method The principal cities are reckoned headquarters and in them have been formed committees of business men representing all churches. Between October and May next social weeks, some- what after the plan of Catholics of conti- mental Europe, will be held in nearly one hundred cities. These include Halifax, St. John, Montreal Toronto, London, Winnipeg and Vancouver in the domin- ion, Boston and all large cities west to St. Louis in the north, Richmond At lanta, New Orleans Nashville and Mem-

nhis in the south, and Denver, Salt Lake City, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Fort .l,ra Tacoma Seattle and Spokane Tn the Rocky mountain and coast reglons' Apart from these main social weeks, aux Hilary ones are planned in tributary cities, so that the whole. country is theoretically to be covered These meetings are not mass conventions, with dinners, but are institutes, arranged almost as are COT lege courses. and every hour Of every day for the week is given its part
 That there may be duplication, and the most accomplished in the shortest time and at the least expense, three teams or specialists in Bible study, Sunday school work. missions, evangelism social ser vice and the rest are provided, and these instructors are given outlines of lectures, so that it is known In advance just what instruction will be given. Nothing more economic, or more certain to carry out determined plans, has ever been devlsed in religion or in politics. The humber of men and boys to come under instruc- ton will, 1t is calculated, run into the hundreds of thousands. The October to May period covered follow-up work Is to be carried on and the whole scheme made permanent. It is not the aim to advance any particular organizations, but solely to help the cause Of Jesus Christ and to bring more men and boys into actual membership and personal work of the churches Some men said last year, when the missionary campaign was on, that they did not believe Tn foreign missions. The plan this year is missions at home in it's intensest form.

Causes of Trouble in Hayti

Religious and educational conditions in Hayti where there is at present a revo- lution. are described as most unfavora- ble by the agent of the American Bible society. stationed at San Juan, Porto Rico. but having San Domingo and Hayti in his field The Rev. w F. Jordan, a careful observer and experienced in re- ligious work among the West Indians, quotes natives as wondering why the United States Christians send so much money to China, Japan and East India, and pass needy fields where ignorance, sickness and poverty reign in the midst of tropical plenty.
 The society's agent describes children as neglected sanitation almost unknown, the marriage loose, and whole sections of the island, even large communities, where the existence of the Bible is not dreamed of. Sales of Bibles and. New Tes- taments reached large numbers last year, so eager are the people to be taught. The report express the conviction that for needy field, where conditions are ripe, hardly one in the whole world is greater and because of it's nearness has stronger appeal to Americans.
 Episcopalians do most of all Americans at present for the islands. but lir1it their work wholly to Hayti, and give nothing to San Domingo. This church has for some years been sending s12,000 a year into Hayti, maintaining 15 to % clergy men, and having churches in most prin- cipal settlements. Its work dates from 1861. Circuits of the country have been laid out, and clergy are supplemented by laymen in ministering to them. The en- tire membership is less than 1000, however, and fewer than 800 are In Sunday schools. The Bible society's agent concludes his report sent just before the late political trouble broke out as follows:
 ''The beautiful landscapes. second to none in the whole world and much sur passing Cuba or Porto Rico, are the scenes of wretched filth and much physi- cal suffering, dwarfed and deformed mentally, spiritual and moral degrada- ton. Why are not Christians of the United States doing more to help Haytians break the shackles of superstition and ignorance?"

Names Sanitorium Co.,. Memphis, Tenn. was cured of the Morphine Habit at your sanatorium in February, 1908, more than three wears ago and have never felt like I wanted a dose of Nor phine since. I wrote a testimonial after I was cured. and had it published for the benefit of those addicted to that awful Drug Habit. I am so anxious to see every drug user cured, and I want to say right here that they can be cured at James Sanatorium, if they will go there and take the medicines as pre- scribed, for I am sure that you have the finest cure for the Drug Habit in Amer- ca This is putting it pretty strong, but 1t is true nevertheless. I know whereof I speak, for have tested it. I have been cured to stay cured. I love to write tes- timonials for the James Sanatorium and its fine service. It is a pleasant place to stay you meet fine lot of people all in sympathy with each other I made so many friends at the sanatorfum that I was sorry when the time came to leave. Fellow feeling makes us wondrous kind,' My brother J. B. Bailey of Ada, Okla. visited your sanatorium last March and was cured of the Morphine Habit. He was using more than 40 grains of Mor- phine daily, and had been using the drug for twenty years. I hear from him every week, and he says he has no desire at all for Morphine. l was with my brother while he was being treated, and he suf- fered little or no pain or inconvenience. He left the sanatorium about April 15 cured man, free from dope and full of hope" and sends weekly greetings to the sanatorium. "All praise to the James Sanatorium and its fine service" l love to help all the poor unfortunates get rid of that awful demon Morphine" They have fine service in every department, and have all the modern appliances, their own water and light plant, fine physi- clans, trained nurses and everything car red on systematically.
