EPISCOPAL FUND
ss0s,I7s WIN Be Raised in Three
Years In the Lexington Diocese
of fhe Episcopal Church.

Wadsworth Clark has been appoint
ed chairman In the Maysville parrish
to aid the campaign to raise $3O2,l72
In three years in the Lexington Dto-
cese of the Episcopal Church. Tne
canvass here is part of the nation
wide campaign to further the interests
OF the church. Mr.. Clark Will be glad
to explain to any Interested, the work
that will be- done, how the money Is

forfoafion concerning the work. 1t Is
believed that Mavsville will be propp
In pledging its share In this grea.
movement. The amount asked in eacn
parish is comparatively small. Inc
Maysville quota will be announced IN
few days.
In 1919, the Lexington Diocese has
received from the Board 81 Missions
$4,000 and contributed to the board
lust $2,911.50. See what dinerence
there is in what has been given ano
what has been received7 In 1871. the
Lexington Diocese expects to receive
from the Missions Board $95,6lS.e4
and it Ks asked to contribute only $lS,-
ss5. Plain figures show the Lexington
Diocese receives more than 1t gives.
The funds raised in this campaign
win 70 toward increasing the general
work Of the church all over the Dio'
cese, for development Of Margaret Col
Iege for Girls at Versailles and st
Johns Institute and Wentworth Farm
at Corbin. 1t is hoped to place three
new diocesan missionaries In the fielc
