Adventure Club

The manager of the Model
Shows of America tells us that
the club members behaved
PERFECTLY BEAUTIFULLY
the day they visited his show.
He said 1888 of the boys and
girls accepted his invitation.
And that NOT ONE was rude
or unmannerly. We were
TERRIBLY proud to hear that.
And we want all of you to
know how pleased we were. 1t
means we can give other parties
like that and not worry a bit.
We know you appreciated the
invitation from your letters.
Every boy or girl who wrote
us said they had a GRAND
time and thought it was one
of the incest parties the club
had ever given. Of course we
couldn't have given it without
the cooperation of the show
people. So we we're doubly
glad that you behaved your
self so nicely.

ADVENTISTS RAISE
BIG MISSION FUND
Per Capita Contribution in 1882 Is
Reported at 304 Cents
Week.

A total of 1,9O2,888.41 was con-
tributed by members Of the Seventh
Day Adventist faith in the North
American Division Conference in 1882
for the advancement of the foreign
missions of that denomination, 1t was
revealed today in the annual report OF
w. H. Williams, undertreasurer of the
foreign mission board.
With a membership Of 120,259, the
total mission gifts represented per
capita contribution of 30!4 cents a week.
The Seventh-Day Adventists operate
mission stations and churches in scores
of countries and in ASS tongues. and
despite the problems reared by the
financial straits throughout the world,
not one missionary was recalled because
of a lack of funds
The total given the missions in 1882
was S474,1 less than the 1881 mis-
sion fund. Commenting on this de-
crease. Mr. Williams said that while
the total was less than last years total
in the aggregate 1925 average gift
was four times as great as 1t was in
1912.
THE clock of time has been set back
almost 20 years so far as the purchas-
ing power of the dollar is concerned"
Mr. Williams said, yet our gifts to the
missions in North America in 1912 ag-
gregated $472,61087, or an average of
only l42 cents per week per member.
Thus the believers in this country last
year gave four times as much to mis-
SionS as in 1912"

would have been the immediate imposi-

The reason why so few men were en-
ployed at the start was easily explained
as only the ground timber for the
grandstand has arrived.
Work is expected to start later in
the week on the huge grandstand on
the north side of Pennsylvania avenue,
facing the White House, from which
10000 visitors will have seats to view
the colorful parade. As work progresses
on the Executive grandstand it was es-

be employed on that unit. A somewhat
larger number will be engaged in con-
struction Of the grandstand at the
Capitol. where the President-elect and
