the South. Everywhere the minds
and hearts of Louisiana Baptists are
now set to the accomplishment Of this
gigantic task. The denomination IS
moving in unanimity and unwavering
faith and the atmosphere is vibrant
with the note of a great victory. For
months there has been an extensive
and intensive campaign Of prepare
ton in every one Of the eight hun
dred Baptist churches in the state,
and consistent and persistent effort
to inform and enlist every one OF the
eighty thousand white Baptists OF
Louisiana in this great forward move
ment.
The Baptist seventy-fiye million
campaign is by far the largest and
noblest and most significant task to
which Southern Baptists have ever
put their hands. The movement was
inaugurated at a psychological and
strategic time. This is the day Of the
worlds greatest call to the forces Of
Christianity. It is the day of the
worlds deepest spiritual need. It is
- day when the whole world looks
to America for an adequate remedy
for its ills. The only cure for the So
ciaI and industrial unrest, for selfish
ness and greed for bOlshevism and

now threatening the civilization Of
the world is in the Gospel of Jesus
Christ. The Baptist seventy-five mil
lion campaign proposes to place the
denomination where it can do rea-
sonably adequate service in supplying
this need.
The outstanding element in the
campaign now is, that beginning next
Sunday, November 80, the great
hosts of Southern Baptists-three
million strong-wiIl march abreast
in perfect step, all doing the big job
at the same time, and in the brief
period Of eight days three million
subscriptions are to be secured and
minimum of SIS, 100000 is to be
raised. In Louisiana the ideal is
eighty thousand subscriptions and a
minimum Of 1926, 900 to be raised

ing a period of five years. The ac-
tual doing Of the thing win start
