more than 108 per cent of the
minimum quota assigned it by
the synodical authorities in an
appeal for funds to enlarge the
facilities of the Lutheran Student
Center at Clemson University.
While the appeal was set up
on a two-year basis, the local
congregation decided to raise its
quota in full immediately. Thus
its solicitation for capital funds
with which to build a new church
will be the only project to which
the congregation -will be asked
to contribute, except to current
expenses and the regular syno
dical apportionment.

the local successful effort.
