be devoted to missions, and $40, 100000
of this sum will be devoted to enlarg-
ing the work on the ten important
foreign fields occupied already and to
opening up new fields where countless
millions of people have not yet heard
the story of Jesus Christ.
..-'a. Africa, Latin America (includ-
ing yico as well as South America),
and europe are the four continents In
which the missionaries of Southern
Baptists are operating today but in all
of the ten countries of these CONT
nents, Southern Baptists have only 316
missionaries, 1877 native workers, 1872
o. whom are ordained, II foreign ply
sicians foreign trained nurses, 81 ma
tive physicians and % native nurses.
"Our missionaries already on the
field have wrought wonderfully for the
Master, considering the difficulties
they have lad to confront" DR.. ]. F.
Love, secretary OF foreign missions,
declares, "but we at home have not
supported them as we ought with help
ers of all kinds and with schools, hos
pitals and other agencies to enable
them to do larger work in every way.
The smallness of the work we have
done already can be realized when we
look at the vast number of people who
have not been reached in the foreign
fields we are Occupying today. China,
for instance, has population four
times that OF the United States, or one
fourth the population of the entire
world, and our force there consists of
only 65 men, 62 married women, 49
unmarried women 81 ordained natives
and 420 unordained native helpers.
japan, which has half as many people
as the United States, is being served
by 9 men, married women, unmar
ried women, i ordained natives and 6
unordained native helpers. In Italy
there are third as many people as
there are in the United States, yet we
have there only men, 2 married wom-
en-, 80 ordained natives, and 3 unordain-
ed native helpers. Mexico has 100000
people, and we have in that country
and on the border missionary force
consisting of II men, II married wom-
en-, unmarried women, "a ordained
natives and Is unordained native help
ers. Argentina has a population Of
8000,000, and our missionary force
there consists of Z men, married
women, IA ordained natives, and Z un-
ordained native helpers. In Africa,
we have entered only one state, that
CT Nigeria, but this state has popu-
lation of 20 100000. and to serve t. hose
people we have only 7 men mission
aries, married women, 8 unmarried
women, ordained natives and 50 un-
ordained native helpers. Brazil has
territory larger than all the United
States and a population of 50,000,OOO.
Serving those people we have a force
of 81 men, 33 married women, un-
married women, G9 ordained natives,
and So unordained native helpers. Our
work in Chile, where there are 3,OOO,-
600 people, is only two years old. but
we have e churches, and Is out-sta-
tions, in which last year there were
122 baptlsms. We need at least

the proceeds of this campaign we hope
to erplcy hem and then equip them
