BAPTISTS Liberal
TOWARD war FUND
Second Day of Campaign
Brings subscriptions
From Many Sources
LAYMEN WORK HARD
IN CHURCH INTEREST

On this, the second day IN the Della
ware Baptist laymen's campaign to raise
$1,000 for missions and war emergency
purposes, much encouragement has been
given the State director. James II. Shus-
ter, and all Of the church directors and
workers throughout the State. by the
hearty and hospitable manner in which
they have been received by church
members on whom they have called for
subscriptions.
No figures as 70 the amounts sub
ecribed daily can be given out untn
after the campaign has closed. owing TO
the diflculty Of getting reports In from
all sections Of the State but from gem
eral reports received from the state di-
rector 20 is evident that so far the
campaign has been entirely successful.
II those from whom subscriptions are
sought during the remainder OF the week
respond SO nobly as those who have
already been seen. the fund viii surely
go "oyer the top
For each church a large committee IS
81 work and the task Is so divided that
a Is hoped 90 visit every Baptist church
member In Delaware before the week Is
ended So well has the ground work
been laid for this campaign that the
workers seldom find it necessary as they
visit the homes to go into lengthy ex-
plantations Of the purposes. With little
lost motion or time they are. on the
whole, finding it possible TO get sub
scriptions more liberal than they ex-
pecied In most cases, and then go else
where for more.
A restatement Of the purposes for
which this campaign Is being conducted
viii doubtless be Of benefit tO>some of
the Baptists who. for one reason or an
other, have not a clear understanding
OF The movement. This money Is Inn
peraiively needed:
To meet greatly Increased general cost
Of doing mission work for example,
simply 10 maintain missionaries salar-
les. lessened because of deprecated cur
rency IN foreign lands.
To make up known shrinkage In GER
tain Items of income
To supply the full amount promised
this year to aged and innrm ministers
and Others who share in the Ministers
and Missionaries Benefit Fund.
To provide for expenses in caring for
Baptist soldier boys In the trenches.
This work in no wise duplicates that
OF the Young Mems Christian Assocla-
ton (which urges this obligation upon
the Baptist denomination and other
denominations. One hundred and nifty
thousand dollars OF the total million
dollar national fund is required this
year for this particular work among
the soldiers.
To prevent debt on any portion or
phase Of UNCONVENTIONAL work
ITO maintain an the work OF the Bap-
lists, without dimlnution at this time Of
times.
The laymen OF the Baptist churche.
have recognized that this Is decidedly
work for Baptist laymen-not fol
the general publc-and h Is for this
reason that the amount Is being sought
within the membership Of the Baptist
churches without outside aid
The expenses Of the campaign In
Delaware as I'm all other states, are be-
ing borne by the national committee, to
which contributions for the purpose
have been made by men Of means In the
