last week. was enthused by the Won
derful record OF missionary giving
made by the denomination during the
year ending April 30.
For foreign missions tho total was
ss0b.s4&, an increase Of $12s,145 over
that for the previous year. For homo
mi ssions the amount was $46s,S86. as
against s400.05S for the year before.

tho two causes was s1.272,20s, IA
gainst s1.07a,752 for the previous
year, an aggregate increase OF s1e2,-
45T. Not only is this far and away
the greatest increase in mission gifts
ever made by the denomination in any
year. but It Ia greater than the agsre-
gate increase for the past Fix years.
Nor is this all Southern Baptists
are giving to missions by any 1neans
There Is yet the immense sum of $724.-

uted to the cause OF State missions
during the last fiscal year. This makes
a grand total for all missions OF ST.

millions OF dollars No wonder the
report was received with enthusiasm!
The phenomenal increase for for
eign missions was due largely to the

we are spending in this country

ments, and like sum on churches.
But OF the $1,000 we are. giving to
churches. only $500 are for missi one

We could get this fifty millions a year
If ten million people gave 10 cents a
