Mission Gifts Increase.

The year 1914, though its closing
months were Swallowed by the war
cloud, was a year of large Christian
generosity. The Society for the Prop
agation of the Gospel reports an en-
larged income; so does the Church
Missionary Society. Out of thirteen
missionary societies in Germany. ten
show ain increase since the war he
gan. In our own country the Pres
byterian Board of Foreign Missions
has had Unprecedented receipts, and
the Methodist Church of Canada is
making a better record than LAST year.
All these are signs of the prevailing
Christian conscience. which encour-
ages the belief that the church will
not fail in her duty toward her world
enterprise.
