BAL PTIST WILL
5@ MAKE A DRIVE
NEARLY 100000 TO BE RAISED
BY CHURCH IN GEORGIA
IN ONE WEEK.

Next Sunday the Baptists of Geor-
gia will launch with great enthusiasm
the Statewide Victory drive fer
$3.50 cash. In the week between
February 8 and 16, the Baptists plan
to raise this amount in cash in ad
dition to a special drive being put
CT in Atlanta to raise $4,000 for the
Georgia Baptist hospital, which will
make @ grand total Of $4,000 cash
to pay every dollar OF every debt on
every institution owned by the Geor
gia Baptist convention.
The organization for this big push
Is practically completed. Teams OF
ten with key-men as team leaders
have been set UP in every commune
ty in the state where there are any
considerable number Of Baptists. Each
team stands for a minimum Of $1,000
and each team worker for & minimum
of $100. These teams are geared for
speed to which there is no limit and
it is freely predicted by the leaders
that the work of the first day or two
will win complete victory, Next
Sunday every Baptist preacer in the
state is urged to preach on Drive
giving information as to the needs
Of the institution involved and cali
ing on the people to get squarely
behind the effort.
Great zest has been added to the
campaign by the generous offer Of
Mercer university and Bessie Tiff
colleGed to Give four Very liberal
scholarships to the four teams going
the farthest over $1,000 cash, new
money per team, and four additional
scholarships to the four individual
team workers going the farthest over
S1O0 cash, new money. These schol
arships acte worth while, for they
range in value to the student from
81, 400 down to $500. This is a fine
opportunity for teams and team work
ers to help some worthy young men
and women to go to college. The
prospect is that there will be some
