Then you will undertsand why Southern Baptists have established orphanages in fifteen states, are :aring for 5,000 such children in those homes and training them for useful lives in the world. But the need is far greater ttyan the ability of these institutions to meet it. While five thousand children are v being cared for in these orphanages, there are on the waiting list of these institutions fully five thousand more equally Worthy, fatherless and motherless boys and girls who want the privileges^vhich these orphanages afford but which must be denied them for the present because there is no room with which to shelter more of them. So when the Baptist 73 Million Campaign was launched for the enlargemen of the work of the denomination along ^general lines in an effort to meet growing spiritual needs in the homeland and throughout the world, the sum of $4,700,000 was apportioned to 4he orphanages, this sum to cover a program of. five years, as the $75,000,000 spught in the campaign will be raised in cash and five-year pledges during Victory^ Week, November 30December 7. In the homes that have been provided for the orphans facilities are provided for giving regular schooling of the samo character that is afforded in the public schools, beginning with the kindergarten and continuing to the tenth and eleventh grades in the IS HUH HE PEOPLE 101SIWED f THIS IS ONE OF THE PRESSING STATE MISSION PROBLEMS IN THE SOUTHLAND. THE SITUATION SS OUTUNEO ^ptist 75 Million Campaign Has Ap portioned $11,000,000 To Be Ens? piaysd Dyr??c tfoe Ysarc Ml Meeting Who. Within the eighteen states comprising the territory of the Southern Baptist convention are 13,000,000 white people who are not only not identified with any church, but who do not claim to he christians, according to information gathered by the Baptist 75 Million Camapign. To try and reach these people with the gospel is one of the aims of the campaign and to meet the JVoblem the state mission organization in the various states will set themselves- To help these organizations in meeting that problem the sum of $11,000,000 has been apportioned from the total of $75,000,000 that is sought for al^ purposes, and during the -A. + /V rvi ioo mn next live years ine state forces will seek to reach these millions of people' right here at home with the gospel and enlist them in some phase of christian work. According to this same source of in formation, it is learned that there are 3,891 towhs and villages in the South with a population of 200 or more in which there are no Baptist, church organizations or no Baptist houses ol worship; Inasmuch as these towns injflttence more or less .the surrounding leiTitory'an' effort will be made tc reach thdlh and the territory surPounding* them during the five-year program at the Baptists, it is anpounced. - 4 . { There are seventy-four county seats mk > ' " hans in South 'rivilfeges of a Home my at Present in Fifteen Institutions ting Far Admission?The 75 _ 1 TL _X It | ns 10 Meei inai rteeu.

This work in the school room is supplemented however, with I practical training along industrial and j oher lines. For instance, the/boys ! are given courses in practical farm work on farms which have been purchased and are operated by the homes, livestock production, carpentering, tin work, plumbing, laundrving, and the like, as well as courses in business for those who show special adaptation for that line of work. The school room work for the girls is supplemented with the study of music, domestic science, stenography and the like. Large attention is given to the religious life of the children, also, and this is given emphasis in the dailV chapel services, and in the Sunday School and preaching services on the Sabbath. The orphan children respond readily to the opportunities and privileges afforded them and there have gone out from these institutions a number of the most useful men and women in the various states. While taking pride? in the accomplishments of the boys and gins wno are in me nuixies ai present, as well 3.9 those who have gone out from there to make their own way in the world, the superintendent and teachers are saddened by the fact that there are so many other helpless children who ought to be aided but can not be by reason of the limitations of the homes. Enlargements are necessary for all of the fifteen orphanages fostered by Southern Baptists which are located In the following states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia. Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia. in the South withe.:" a single Baptist church or meeting L: :se, it has been ascertained by the ?:mpaign headquarters. By reason ol ;he -arge number of public officials residing there, and the large number of people who go there from - every section of the county to attend the sessions of the various courts, pay their taxes^and the like it is regarded that the countyseat towns are of especial importance and it is hoped that before the next five years have passed there will be an active Baptist church in every ?Anr tv.caat in vho Engaged in the work of stafs missions at present are 1524 missionaries, and while this may seem lika a reasonable number, when the vast territory to be served is considered'it has been found that fully 1.000 extra men and women are needed at once, for in adtittoa to rreck&g the people ^he are not christians there are many weak7 struggling churches which need assistance and whose members need development. In the several states of the Southern Baptist convention, for instance, there are 5.000 churches with o momhorcnin of mnnv rnnnnflrir} xrhtoh give but very little to any interest of the denomination and which are doing but very small tilings for the uplift of their communities, ? In addition to these very weak churches, many of which have no pastor tjjere are in the various states a totax of 19,688 churches which have preaching services only once a month, t 3,000 churches which have services only once a month, and only--about 2,200 full time churches. Part of the . $11,000,000 apportioned for state mist mions will go to the strengthening of the weak churches and the bringing of them to full-time pastorates where i possible. l Leaders in the' campaign have i sought to care for every interest of . the denomination in -the $75,000,000 ! that is asked in cash and five-year pledges during Victory Week, Novem; ber 30-December 7, when ..the final , drive will be made, but they recognize that the future develop-ient of the church depends' in a great measure . upon tho development of the eiuirc >es a* >inm0 which is the necuiir.r tarL* cf 1a i/ uvmv ? r state missions. ^ . i i r ui * w* I A BIE J -WI) SALE OX NOVEMBER SALES DAY The Harriet Harman tract of land, one of the most valuable farms in the comity, will be cut. into small tracts and offered for sale to tiie hi.ah est bidder in front, of the court house on the tirst Monday in November.
