ng a great Glass A college at Jack
ION, Tenn. This school will have
'ank with the great schools of Geor-
ria and Virginia-the Randolph Ma
on, and the Wesleyan Colleges, |
which are known throughout the
United States for their high scholar |
hip. 20 per cent will go into the |
million dollar aid fund for boys and {
,irls who wish to prepare for the l

# $50,O00,000.0O three years ago for {
missions is the first of the great
movements of Protestant denomina-
ions in our Centinary movement
Times were easy then, money could

les, and people were in a frame of
mind to do things on big scale. 1t
S very different now, and much cred
t is reflected on a church that dares !
o put God first, and trust to his prov
dence to bring all things out.
