I'VE have decided to set apart $780,
900 for the work OF foreign missions
There are 50.000.000 inhabitants IN
the French colonies for whom there
is no other door Of approach than the
French Foreign missions Roumania,
Bulgaria and Greece are more open
to French influence than any other.
The French Foreign Missionary So
cieties have been sustained by spe-
cial gifts. during the war, but their
finances are terribly crippled and the
work cannot be carried on effectively
without outside support
To Strengthen the Work
For home missions we have also
set aside s300.00O. There are 10000
600 Frenchmen not vitality connected
with any religious Organization, to
whom Professionalism has unique
opportunity to appeal Our aim Is
TO strengthen the examinations which
are working for them
I'VE have decided TO devote $4,000
to helping asylums. orphanages and

which is the only school OF scientific
nursing ~ France. Its director is
called The Florence Nightingale OF
