1t follows necessarily that submar-

Remarkable Achievement

Baptists report a remarkable achieve
ment during tho year. They began at
the north, with q debt of $4,000 on their
home. foreign and women's societies. This
large sum was an accumulation of fully
Tour years. Last year, in spite of off
iculties, they paid every dollar In the
Home society Baptist churches increased
their gifts by $4,000. but Individuals fell
off in their gifts $4,000. The decline was
due to the debt paying campaigns, man.
aged largely by individual givers. The
homo balance on the right side was, how
ever, less than $1,000 In the foreign So
ciety it is reported at the moment that
a deficit is imminent, but that a con-
siderable gift is expected If 1t arrives
in time this society will also end the year
debt free. Baptist missionary leaders at
the north declare they, are far ahead of
expectations In the showing of the year.
Baptists south suffered lack of sale of
cotton. but report in all three general So
cieties or boards larger gifts tnan were
expected three months or even a month
ago. Their western churches have come
to the rescue, they say. At the moment
it is expected that all will end their
years without deficit.

New York, April 17-(Special) efforts

an ecclesiastical snag within the first

Ihat the election of Mrs. Mary Echols
as member of the board of education
or Birmingham gave much satisfaction to
her many friends was evidenced by .he
magnificent vote she received in the pri-
mary election held recently under the
auspices of the Ensley club. Ii was a
tribute to the worth and ability of Mrs.
Eehols for she set at naught the say
ing that "a prophet is not without honor
save in his own country" for it was her
neighbors and friends who declared so
strongly that Mrs. Echols was their
choice for the position.
There was another angle to the election
of Mrs. Echols that makes the victory
more complete, and that was the nigh
character of her opponents, both of whom
were well qualified for the position, and
could, If elected. have filled the place
with honor That Mrs. Echols will make
, good on the board not one of her friends
has the least doubt and they insist that
the cause of women being placed in pub
lie office will be advanced by her cleo
ton.

with Mrs. Echols and her family, for
well, we will not state how many years

but further debt was incurred carrying
all to the large sum named. Tt is said
glfts from churches increased last year
10 a slight extent but that other sources
OF income fell off. At the moment the
figures for the foreign board are not COM
pleted, but 1t is known that that board is
ais" behind, and that the publication So
elety Is behind. Together it is feared that
the deficits will mount up to a figure
larger than any missionary societies of
any religious body in America ever re-
corded in single year, possibly heavier
than any in England. Explanations as
to the cause are withheld for the present
