acter- and who are thus brought in
touch with workers giving instruc-

these pupils viii. it is believed, later
connect with the work in their re-
spective fields In Africa alone there
is a total Of 112 schools. with over
5000 pupils in attendance from
homes which were formerly heather.
Forty-nine teachers have this work
in charge. with 156 native teachers
trained TO assist in a satisfactory
manner.
The total of all funds raised by
the Seventh-Day Adventist Denomin-
alton in the United States for evange-
listic purposes in 1911 constituted a
per capita Of 1922 for the member
ship in that field The present re-
port indicates that the per capita
amount of funds raised in mission
territory constituted $3.50 for each
of the 1866 adherents in such ter
ritory
In addition there was sent to the
support of work in such fields $751;
5S7z3, or a per capita Of S20.36 for
each of the adherents in those fields,
making a total of approximately s2S.-
05 per capita used for the work in
mission territory. Deducting the
amount sent outside the home base,
leaves the per capita expended there
at $27 A. thus indicating something
of an equalization of funds expended
for the home field and the work in
mission territory.

SHOW PROGRESS
General Conference Report
Shows Much Accomplished
During Year

The Rev r. II. Martin. Of the
Seventh Day Adventist Church. at
1908 King street, has just received
a report from the headquarters Of
the General Conference. ihe govern
ing body OF the denomination, in
Washington ID. c.. OF the progress
that has been made b. the Adyen-
lists in non-Christian and non-Pro-
tcstant countries
The report was prepared and sent
by Mr.. II. E. Rogers statistical secre-
tary of the General Conference, who
tells in a comprehensive way of how
the Adrentis's arc ondeavoring TO
obey the commission OF the Savior,
Go ye into all the world and preach
the gospel to every creature
Notwithstanding the fact that the
denomination did not send out a
missionary to foreign lands until
1874, the report shows that he de-
nomination has now total of $50
foreign missionaries aud 974 native
helpers; Alb churches, with 1866
adherents; 13 training schools. hav-
ing an enrolment OF 724: 1872 schools
and out-schools, with an enrolment
Of $3.50. Total foreign teachers num-
Der 1903, and native teachers 262. The
number added in 1911 was 2,679, or
gain of 22.74 per cent The income
from the mission field for 1911. was
S135, ,234S7, and the amount added
thereto by the home base, was $751;
5S7.73.
The statistical secretary states that
this is the first report issued by the
General Conference dealing specific
ally viii the work of The denQmina-
tion in non-Christian and non-Protes-
tant lands. As to the progress made
i'm entering these countries the re-
port further says
Beginning with 1886, when work
was first undertaken in non-Protes-
tant lands, the next decade saw the
opening of work in II different coun-
tries or 1888 per cent of all the
countries that have been entered
during the next decade, from 1896
1905, work was begun in 20 coun-
tries, 1925 per cent Of all, during
the six years following, 10 the pre-
sent time, 21 other countries have
been entered, or 3134 per cent of
all Thus work in so new countries
has been begun during the past six
teen years, or 7462 per cent Of all
that have been entered since 1856.
Therefore the work in three fourths
OF all the countries that have been
entered as mission fields by this body
is of comparatively recent date"
The results OF the, work for the
yea. 1911 are very gratifying indeed.
The report shows that the net gain
i'm baptized members i. 2,679. This
is gain of 2274 per cent for the
year
Another excellent result shown is
the large number OF pupils in various
schools. There is a total of 724 who
are taking training for various lines
OF work, and 6.730 pupils'who are TAX
