The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-12-03
BY FRANK E. suRkAALTEA


Are you used to thinking of wo-
mans part in church work as mere.
ly that Of going to Sunday School,
prayer meeting and preaching serv.
ices, giving pink teas occasionally
In honor of distinguished visitors.
and chicken or oyster supper now
and then to raise funds for a new
suit Of clothes for the poorly-paid
pastor?
If so, probably you have not been
to church recently.
Since the Southern Baptist wo.
men began their organized work
through the Woman's Missionary
Union they have contributed more
than 100000 in cash to the vari-
GUS causes fostered by the demoni-
nation, and when the value of boxes
they have made up for orphan chill
dren and other benevolent causes is
added their total contributions reach
the sum of $5,71O, 1871.
Encouraged by the general spirit
OF the Baptist rs Million Campaign,
however, the women gladly assumed
the task Of raising $15,000,00O dur
ing the next five years, or one-fifth
the total sum sought in the cam
paign, and their leaders have no
doubt that they will raise every cent
OF this amount and more.
And the women's part OF the
money Is going to be raised through
the hard work, earnings and sacri-
fices Of the women themselves and
not through sums contributed by
the men OF their families.
Legitimate Giving viii Raise Fund.
Nor are the women going to de-
pend upon church suppers, fairs, ba-
zaars, ice cream socials, pink teas
and things of that kind to assist
them in their undertaking. All such
methods of raising money for relig-
ious purposes are frowned upon by
the leaders Of the Woman's Mission
airy Union. Instead, the women will
work, sacrifice and save in order
that they may during the next five
years give $15,O00OO0 to the ad-
Vancement of the Kingdom of God
in the world through larger contri-
buttons to foreign, home and state
missions, Christian education, hos
pitfalls, orphanages, ministerial relief
and other equally deserving benevo-
lences.
Every Good Cause Is Aided.
Every missionary, educational and
benevolent work, local and general,
carried on by Southern Baptists is
supported literally by the women,
but in a number of states they as
sumo. in addition, such tasks as the
support of special schools for the
training of women for Christian SER
vice as missionaries, Sunday School
experts, deacJnesses, district and
general nursing and the like;

For instance, the Woman's Train
