Uplifting Children of Many Lands.
And the work for the physical,
mental and spiritual uplift of the
children in Cuba, Panama, Mexico,
Brazil, Argentine, Chile, China, ia
/ pan, Syria, Persia and Galilee, in
which fields, also, missionary work
/ is being carried on by the Southern
Baptist Convention at this time.
| With the exception of Japan
the education of the people has
| been very backward and children
are always the losers where ig-
norance and superstition prevail. In
| China, for instance IN spite of the
rapid progress that has come to that
country within recent years, chill
dren have little or no chance for
normal development except in those
homes that have been reached with
the enlightenment and love of the
gospel. Girls are still unwelcome
! because of their small economic
value, and there are still posted on
the preserves of some of the wealthy
residents whose estates adjoin the
rivers such signs as, "No children
shall be drowned on these prem
ises.' And the treatment for dis
eases prescribed by the heather
physicians in some of these coun-
tries is worse than death itself.
Shrouded in ignorance, supersti-
tion and sin as the lives of the
children of these lands are in most
cases, the missionaries represent
ing the Southern Baptist Conven-
ton are convinced that schools for
the enlightenment of the minds of
the children, and modern hospitals
where medical and surgical skill
can heal their diseased and manned
bodies and put them on the road
to happier and more efficient lives,
are fundamental to the success of
missionary endeavor and the moral
and spiritual uplift of the people.
So part of the proceeds of the
Baptist Is Million Camaign will 60
to the establishment of kindergar-
tens and other Christian educa-
tional institutions, hospitals and
homes where orphans can be cared
for in the foreign lands. Our mis-
sionaries have for a long time been
handicapped by lack of money and
other facilities. Frequently they
have rescued children who have
been thrown out to starve and after
resuscitating them, given these out

own homes. whore many OF them
have grown into useful Christian
workers.

equipment of Baptist educational
institutions throughout the South
land where children as they develop
into young men and women can be
more adequately trained for lives
of social and religious usefulness
at the same time their minds and
bodies are cultivated; and the pro-
vision of Good Will Centers in the
large cities and mining and factory
districts for reaching not only the
children, but helping the parents as
we'll provide better homes and home
surroundings for the little ones
whom God has entrusted to their
care and rearing.
Hospitals Help the Little Ones.
That the children who come into
the world with weak bodies, who
contract illness or are MANNED by
accident may have a larger chance
to become sound in body and thus
be equipped for larger develop
ment, happiness and usefulness in
the world, Southern Baptists have
provided hospitals in almost all of
their states, while under the impe-
tus of this campaign the states
which have not made such provis-
ions heretofore have agreed to set
aside certain sums raised during
this campaign for the erection of
modern hospitals within their Dor
ders. Indicative of the special in
terest taken in the welfare of chill
dren, special children's depart
ments, with roof gardens and other
modern equipment specially design
ed to meet the needs of sickly, I'M
der-nourished and undeveloped little
folks may come and under the care
of the best childrens experts which
the cities afford, have a larger
chance to attain the normal healthy
lives which it is believed God wills
that they should have, have been
provided in some of these hospitals.
But probably the largest contribu-
ton Baptists have made to the well
fare of children in the South is in
the establishment of the string of
orphanages, there being one of
these in practically every state
within the bounds of the Southern
Baptist Convention. And the lar.
gest possible provision is being
made at these institutions for the
homeless tots who have been robbed
by the Grim Reaper of their natural
protectors. Time was in this coun-
try when many people felt that or
phans were entitled to little consid-
Grafton further than a shelter, and
for long time they felt that If chill
dren without fathers and mothers
were placed in homes where they
got food and shelter in exchange for
hard manual labor they had been
really served. OF course, many
childless couples with high ideals
were glad to get children upon
whom they could bestow their az
lection and whom they were glad
to provide with a real home, but
many more instances have been wit
messed of persons securing orphans

greatest evangelizing forces known

and spiritual salvation of the girls
whom it reaches can be maintained
for abou' $40.
If so large a. work has been done
already, why the need of increas-
ing it through the Baptist rs Mil
lion Campaign? some may ask.
The answer is that the work that
has been done in the homeland and
on the foreign fields Is a very, very
small part of what needs to be
done. The cry for help is coming
UP from hundreds of millions Of
helpless children in all parts of the
world who need and crave the priv
ileges and blessings of great
Christian civilization such as yo9
covet for the children OF your own.
1t is to help answer this call that
the campaign was launched. Other
interests than those of children
will be fostered at the same time.
OF the $20,000,000 apportioned to
foreign missions considerable
sum will go to sending more mis-
sionaries to foreign fields to pro.
claisn the gospel to adults as we'll
as to children; $12,0O0,000 will go
to home missions fore, its work

building, mountain schools and the
like in it's vast field, along with
special work among the foreigners,
Indians and Negroes; $11 ,000,0
will go to state missions in an eft.
fort to win to Christ the 100000
unsaved white people within the
territory of the Southern Baptist
Convention; s20,000,0o0 will be ap.

educational institutions of the

selves out in the service OF God on
salaries that have permitted them
to save nothing for old age. ~

solely for the economic benefit they
could reap from the labors of these
| helpless ones and the situation was
neither happy nor helpful for the
children involved.
| Provide Homes For the Homeless
In breaking away from this Gus
tom of placing children and in pro.
viding institutions as nearly like
genuine homes as possible, where
fatherless and motherless little
folks can be developed in mind,
body and soul under environments
just as wholesome and happy as 1t
is possible to procure, Baptists have
been pioneers. Naturally, no insti-
tuition can have the same environ
ment that a real home, presided
over by natural father and moth
er, and occupied with these parents
only by brothers and sisters of full
blood affords, yet an approximation
of that ideal Is had in a number of
the Baptist orphanages of the South
through the establishment of cot
tage system where a limited number
of children are placed in a cottage
which they call home, under the SUI
pervision Of a kindly, tactful matron
and patron, who study the charac-
teristics and qualifications of each
individual, assign him or her to
tasks as nearly in line with the act
ual bent of the child as practicable,
and take as large personal interest
in his or her problems and develop
ment as possible. Each of these
cottages has it's own garden, flower
plat, wood yard and other institu-
tions, affording special individual
chores for the children, and except
at school, religious services, picnics
and the like the children are reck-
oned with in terms Of the individual
and the family rather than in those
Of the mass.
But the Baptist rs Million Cam.
paign does not confine its interest in
children to those of the homeland.
There Is now in Europe a COM
mission representing the campaign
studying to see how this movement
can aid most effectively in the re-
construction of that country, espe-
cially those portions of it which
were devastated most largely by
contending armies.
Twenty million dollars could be
expended with economy and high

widows and orphans of our spiritual
kinsmen in Europe who have suf-

Ever feel the thrill from the
chubby arms of little child near
and dear to you as they encircled
your neck in fond embrace?
Or look into the beautiful frank
eyes of that little loved one and
contemplate the possibilities that
lie hidden in that soul, or what you
would not take in exchange for him
or her who bears your name and is
bone OF your bone and flesh of your
flesh?
Then possibly you hav, expert
enced something of that divine
spirit that prompted the Man OF
Galilee to exclaim:
Take heed that we despise not
one OF these little ones" and
1T is not the will Of your Father
who is in heaven that one of these
little ones should perish"
And it is the belief of Southern
Bapt;sts in giving a large place to
the welfare and all-round develop
ment of children in the Baptist 70
Million Campaign that they are pur-
euing a course that has the sane
ton OF Christ Jesus, the proclama-
tion OF whose Gospel everywhere is
always accompanied by larger at
tention to the physical mental, So
cial and spiritual development of
children.
First Right To Be Well Born.
Baptists believe the frs. right of
every child is to be well born; that,
in the second place, every child has
q right to normal and healthful
nourishment and physical surround
ings during it's tender years; and in
the third place, every child has a
right to an education that is adapt
cd to its needs, physical, mental
and spiritual.
But what has all this to do with
the Baptist rs Million Campaign?
you ask.

almost complete unanimity every
great State-builder has recognized
1 that Sunday is one of the bulwarks of
I a safe and enduring civilization. These
great men have pointed out from the

of the materialistic and sensualistic
then that State or Empire is doomed.
