Mr.. Patton Successful.
The Rev. r. W. Patton, who Ia to
conduct this mission In Richmond.
m. probably been more successful in
getting results than any other man
in the Episcopal Church through this
method of education. Wherever these
missions have been held, 1t has almost
invariably resulted in decided finan-
cial advance. but above an THIS, u
has proven to be a real spiritual tonic
TO the churches participating In IT.
The fact that busy ministers and lay
men are coming TO Richmond this
Sunday to give their testimony, so to
speak. OF how a similar mission az
fected their parish and what they
think of the plan Is the most Sgnifi-
cant endorsement that can be given.
The Episcopal churches of Richmond
have been preparing for this mission
for two weeks.
David H. Brown. secretary OF the
Episcopal committee, has been -devot-
ing his entire time for the past three
weeks to building up local commit
tees and looking after preliminary
arrangements. so that everything will
be ready when Mr.. Patton arrives.
The Rev. Louis g. Wood. of
Charleston. s. c., Is now In Richmond
and will help complete organizations
in various churches Rev. Mr.. Wood
has associated with Rev. Patton In
these missions In other cities, and
comes to Richmond as an advance
man. He will speak at the following
