The New Idea Co., MORRIS NESS, Manager MW, Wt ~ ~- Ar-~ * ~ -i I. the Man r, was as to Clark's le on - the therefore, K, Proprietor Can and Will the Baptists Do It? The answer is an unqualified YES. and this answer is given. because the undertaking had its beginning in the denominational heart and conscience. The campaign was ordered by the un animous vote of 'nearly five thousand messengers in attendance upon the Southern Baptist Convention at At lanta last May. It was the expressed will of Southern Baptists that the money should be raised, and Southern Baptists have ability to match their will. In answer to the query "Can the Baptists raise $75,000,000," Dr. E. Y. Mullins, President of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, says: "It is my strong conviction that' we are able to (10 it. My reasons are, that in numbers, in wealth, in enthu siasm, and in the conviction of our people we are abundantly able to do it." Hon. E. W. Stevens, formerly President of the Southern Baptist Convention, answers: "Most assured ly we can raise it. The South was never so prosperous, nor were its people ever so full ot hope and en thusiasm." Dr. George W. McDaniel, pastor of the First, Baptist Church, Richmond, Va., says: "Thrce million white Baptists, enjoying prosperity and living in a section of increasing' wvealth, can readily raise seventy-five millions for the Kingdomi in five years.' Mr. J. H. Anderson, Knox ville, Tenn., a rich and thoroughly and passionately interestedl layman, an swers: "Yes--a thousand times, YES." 01H10'S CORN KING In and out of Ohio Prof. C. G. Wil.. liams is known as the Corn King. He is a soil builder. He has spent years finding out a few surec things. Hie has discovered many soil secrets, Hie is a booster for AgrIcultural Lime stone. Hero is one of his one-minute talks: "At present pri'ces for farm crops, a ton of Ground Limestone has increased the yield of corn, oats, wheat, clover and timothy to the value of $30.00. This Is in comparison with similar land which has never been treated." No guess work about the above. Accurate weights and records bring out this important fact. Limestone at present pirices is by far the cheapest fertilizer on the market. When for an expenditure of $5.00 you cain get back $30.00--looks like a good deal. People are just beginning to realiae what limestone means In crop produe tion. . . r' " " . - 4 . orders on reek, Monda >ring it in dry 1R K fter every pi ma Tobacco, nUSe,. R. D. CLARI BAPIST SEVENTYIVE MILLION CAMPAIGN The Baptists of South Carolina are definitely co-operating with the Bap tists of the South in a great drive for subscriptions for Missions, Education, and General Benevolence, in the sum of $76,000,000, to be raised on a five year plan during the eight days be -ginning November 30th and ending December 7th. South Carolina Bap tists have accepted as their quota in the great drive the sumt of $5,500,000. This constitutes the largest under taking ever assumed by the denom ination in South Carolina and in the South, but by no mean~s too large for them to raise with comparative ease. It only requires the general enlistment of all the membership. This will be (lone during the next four mont~hs through an organization, which is be ing perfectedl, that will reach every member in every church~ throughout the State and the South. An every member canvass of every church in the South will reveal their willingness to do a big thing andl their ability to (do far bernod anything that has been Imagin. i in all the past. The Bap tists ate se numerous that no indivi dual will he called ul1on to do more than he has the ability to do, yet all will do more than they have ever dlone. The big campaign was opened for South Carolina in Columbia Tuesday, July 22nd, when there were assemb led with the general organizers, the associational organizers and publicity from every part of the State. With but few excceptions every association was well represented. The leaders of the Women's Missionary Societies were there in full force and are ac tively participating in the campaign. Tho Baptist wvomeni of the South have agreedl to raise one-fifth of the en tire sum, or $15,000,000. The men and women who came together in Co lumbia exhibited an intelligent grasp upon the greatness, the worthiness, andl the necessity of the undertaking, and these qiualities were matched by a burning enthusiasm to put the job over at whatsoever cost and in a truly great and wvorthy manner. The headquarters of the campaign in South Carolina are located at Greenville, with Drs. W. T. Derieux nd Chas. A. Jones, General Directors, President W. J. McGlothlin of Fur man University as State Organizer, andl Rev. Thoa. J. Watts, State Sun dlay School Secretary, as State Pub lty Director.
