twelve million dollars is a large
figure when compared with what we
have been doing heretofore" DR.. D. B.
Gray, corresponding secretary of the
Hcme Mission Board at Atlanta, de.
clares, "but 1t is very reasonable in
comparison with our ability and small
In comparison with the needs of the
Home Mission fields"
Setting forth the particular obliga.
ton which confronts America since
the war has transferred the cepBer OF
education from Europe to this coun.
try, DIR. Gray says: This brings q
new day Of opportunity and RESPONSE
bility to our people. Our schools and
colleges must be strengthened and en-.
dowed. They must be mSde thorough
ly christian In fact as well as In the.
CRY. In this way we are to counterfeit
the vicious ideals of Germany and her
allies in the world war. Our youth
must be trained on proper lines as to
religion and ethics. This can be done
best in our UNCONVENTIONAL schools"
Some of the educational institutions
fcstered by the Home Mission Board
are the forty mountain schools, serv
ing 100000 residents of the South
living In mountainous territory where
public high schools are lacking. Fully
$10,000.000 could be used to advantage
In strengthening the equipment and
teaching force of these schools, it IL
estimated, so great is the need.
Another demand of the home field
Is the 1000 church organizations in
the South which need assistance In
the erection of suitable houses of wor.
ship, while more pressing still is the
problem created by the presence In
the South of 100000 negroes. Speak.
ing of the negro problem, DR.. Gray
says: They are of more vital COZ.
Germ to US than any hundred millions
OF people anywhere else in the world.
Socially, politically, economically and
religiously they constitute our great
est task and we neglect them at our
own peril as well as their infinite loss
Racial relations are tense and the sit
uation calls upon Southern Bapti its
for worthy program in behalf of the
RELIGIOUS uplift of our brothers In
black. We must lead them in sane
missionary and evangelistic work and
likewise in the development of their
religious life on sane and helpful lines.
We need large company of the best,
wisest and strongest negro evangelists
and teachers who shall help us to lift
up their race end make them worthy
and worth while as Christian citizens"
That work amcng the foreigners in
the homeland offers the best and most
economical opportunity for missionary
labors among them anywhere, is the
declaration of the Home Mission lead
ers. These foreigners are in the
fields, mines and factories and are a
vital part of our civilization. This
work among the foreigners not only
gives them the christian religion, but
makes them more contented and bet |
ter American citizens, it is pointed |
out.
Great hopes for the future of the |
churches in the South are held out in |
the enlarged program of evangelism |
and enlistment which the Baptist is |
Million Campaign will make possible.
The Home Board hopes to win from
100000 to 100000 people in the South |
who are not christians during the pc

some such stunt as boxing, weight
lifting, tangoing, cartoon drawing
and singing, there is no wonder that
the opening nights crowd patronized
this show most literally.
Then there is Eta Louise

American Roses. Miss Blake is cred
tied with being the most perfectly
formed woman on the stage and her
continent of beauties give her close
run, which is also new and highly
artistic. One would not expect to see
miracle of this nature enacted on an
exposition midway, but the stunt pull
ed off at this exhibit is very fine. The
Wild West show is first rate; Johnny

important part of the entertainment.
The Congress Of Fat People shows a
big bunch of curiosities.
The side shows are interesting. One
which produces endless amusement is
the Bug House. This attraction is
filled with endless passage ways,
which converge and divulge in most
bewildering manner. Each passage
way is lined with plate glass mirrors
which greatly increases the confusion.
Then there is the Coney Island Side
Show. Essie Fay is the most CLASH
cal attraction to be seen. Miss Fay,
a strikingly handsome woman, is not
ed as the greatest horsewoman in Am

in class by itself A Tour of The

When a young man the distinguish

ideas of free government, which has
been of inestimable and vital concern
