Subscriptions from residents of
Washington will be coming in until
the close of the national campaign in
1925, it was stated. BY that time it
is expected .WaAhington's contribu-
ton to the cathedral will be. nearer
$4,000, 900 than $1,000,000 I'VE know"

although the campaign for funds
will not be over until the $10,000,000
is raised, I cannot resist comment
ing upon the faithful work of the
organization of men and women in
Washington under the leadership or
John Hays Hammond and Newbold
Noyes. No finer and more enthusi-
astic army of crusaders ever set
forth upon a campaign for the ad-
vancement of Christianity.
"All of US gratefully appreciate
also the contribution of the news

of our intensive campaign They en-
tered heartily into the spirit Of the
COCA sion anG reported facts accurate
iy, promptly and with unfaiiing COCO
taste The gentlemen OF the press
have contributed in no small degree
to the revival of interest IN Washs
