AdventiSts Plan For
S10O,000,000 Day

Saturday, April %, will be Zone
Hundred Million Dollar Day" at the
Harrington Seventh-Day Adventist
Church, it was announced today by
Herbert Dennison, Sabbath School
Superintendent
On that day offerings from Sab
bath School members throughout
the world will probably total $780,
100000 since children and adults
began giving in this division OF
the Adventist Church in 1886.
The Harrington Sabbath School
superintendent said that all of this
sum had been used through the
years for foreign missions expan-
sion. The $9S.000,000 mark was
reached by Adventists on December
II, 1854. he said. The prediction
by the church's statistical depart
ment that April 90 will be the day
on which the 100000, 900 mark will
be reached is based on the current
rate of offerings within the denom-
nation. he said.
When Seventh-Day Adventists
began giving to missions in 1886
there were only S13 Sabbath
Schools with 1882 members in
the entire world. 1t took them 25
years to raise their first million
dollars. 1t took them three years
and three months to raise their sec
ond million dollars, and since that
time there has been an almost con-
slant acceleration in giving
Last year members of 1922 Sab
bath Schools gave nearly $4,000, 900.

Tor spring Cleaning
:! sl.lll.llllllI and su b eq u e n t
packing away, it is not the only
sign of the delightful season.
Just now one would say that
winter was having a return
engagement. because of the
very damp and cold day, but
May is SO close by we shall be
having warm clear weather
soon, we hope. People are be-
ginning to think about summer
cottages and what has to be
done to them for seasonal
habitation. The Girl Scouts,
SOME of them, have already
had an overnight camping trip
and are looking forward to
many of their other Out-Of-door
pursuits. Glasses at school are
making pilgrimages to histori-
cal spots in the State. Many
are much interested in a visit
to Winterthur, now open for
those who want to enjoy the
gardens as we'll as the twenty
rooms that are on display.
Plans for a field trip by the
Delaware archaeologists in this
section are on foot. So, many
things will be taking place in
the next few weeks. Perhaps
the most momentous happening
will be the innoculatiOn of
first grade little people with
the now celebrated Salk vac
cine. How grateful parents
are that the serum will soon
be available for children of all
ages. With all of this the hopes
are general that the coming
Big Four meeting will bring
about such harmony between
the nations that talks OF war
and it's imminence may be 81
fenced once and forever. Spring
IS a busy time.
