Establish Orphanage in Rome.

BY reason Of the liberal response
from the native Christians in the vari-
GUS mission fields to the rs Million
Campaign, many improvements on
those fields have been made possible.
Among the engagements already pro-
vided for are an orphanage in Rome,
the addition of girls department ct
Rio College In Brazil, and land for q
girls school at Sac Paulo, Brazil.
The Interior China Mission was
asked for $1,000 for the campaign, and
the missionaries there subscribed this
alone, while the native converts added
$4,000. The North China Mission has
subscribed $4,000, while Brazil will
respond with nearly $1,000.000. In
South Brazil the campaign as it was
carried on in the South, was duplicated
with all the special days and other ex-
traordinary efforts and the response
is far beyond the anticipations of the
Foreign Mission Beard. In Argentina,
the quota asked was $4,000, while the
returns from that country, have already
reached $125,000.
