While $20,000,000 ot the $75,000,000

Now that the larger liberties enjoyed
by peoples everywhere, following the
close of the world 'war, have revealed
aa never before the need and. the op
portunity for the spread of the gospel
to aU the ends of the earth, the Bap
tists of the South have launched their
program for $75,000,000 to be raised
in cash and flva-year. subscriptions be

hope of making a worthy beginning

Convention.

Habitual Constipation Cared
in 14 to 21 Days
“LAX-FOS WITH PEPSIN” is a specially-
prepared Syrup Tonic-Laxative for Habitual
Constipation. It relieves promptly but
should be taken regularly for 14 to 21 days
to induce regular action. It Stimulates and
Regulates. Very Pleasant to Take. 60c
per bottle.
“Twelve million dollars Is a large
figure when compared with what we
have been doing'heretofore," Dr. DwB.
Gray, corresponding secretary of the
Hrme Mission Board at Atlanta, de-
ctares, *irat it la very - reasonable in
comparison with bur ability and small
in comparison with the needs of the
Home Mission fields.”
Setting forth the particular obliga
tion which confronts America since
the war has transferred the center of
education from Europe to this coun
try, Dr. Gray says: "This brings a
new day of opportunity and responsi
bility to our people. Our schools and
colleges must be strengthened and en
dowed. They must be made thorough
ly Christian, in fact as well as in the
ory. In this way we are to counteract
the vicious ideals of Germany and her
allies in the world war. Our youth
must be trained on proper lines aa to
religion and ethics. This can be done
bfcst in our denominational schools.”
Some of the educational Institutions
festered by the Home Mission Board
are the forty mountain schools, serv
ln« 3,000,000 residents of the South
living in mountainous territory where
public high schools are lacking. Fully
$10,000,000 could be used to advantage
In strengthening the equipment and
teaching force of these schools, it la
estffnated, so great is the need.
Another demand of the home field
Is the 4,000 church organizations in
the South which need assistance in
the erection of sutable houses of wor
ship, while more pressing still la the
problem created by the presence in
the South of 10,000,000 negroes. Speak
ing of the negro problem, Dr. Gray
says: ‘They are of more vital com-.
cern to ug than any hundred millions
of people anywhere else in the world.
Socially, politically, economically and
religiously they constitute our great
est task and we neglect them at our
own peril as well as their infinite loss.
Racial relations are tense and the sit
uaticn calls upon Southed! Bapti ;ta
for a worthy program in behalf of the
religious uplift of our brother* in
black. We must lead them In sans
missionary and evangelistic work and
likewise in tin developpment of their
religious life on sane and helpful Unes.
We need a large company of the best,
wisest and strongest negro evangelists
and teachers v/ho shall help us to lift
up their race me’, make them worthy
and worth while as Christian citizens."
That work amen* the foreigners in
the homeland oilers the beat and most
economical opnortunity for missionary
labors among them anywhere, is the
declaration of th<^ Home Mission lead
era. These foreigners are in the
fields, mines and factories and are a
vital part of our civilization. This
work among the foreigners not oniy
g'ves them the Christian religion, aut
makes them more contented and bet
ter American citizens, it tsr pointed
out.
Great hopes ,foi the future of the
churches in the South are held out in
the enlarged program of evangelism
and enlistment which the Baptki 75
Million Campaign will make possible.
The Home Board hopq|,to win from
500,000 to 500,000 people in the South
who are not cid&tiana during the pe
riod of the campaign.

DR. J. F. LOVE,
Of Richmond, Secretary of Foa
eign Misslona for the Southern Bap
tist Convention.
to be made during Victory Week, No
vember 30-December 7, $43,000,000 will
be devoted to missions, and $20,000,000
of this sum will be devoted to enlarg
ing the work on the ten Important
foreign-fields occupied already- and-to
opening up new fields where countless
millions of peoples have not yet heard
the story of Jesus Christ.
Asia, Africa, Latin America (includ
ing Mexico as well as South America),
and Europe are the four continents in
which the missionaries of Southern
Baptists are operating today, but in all
of the ten countries of these conti
nents, Southern Baptists have only 316
missionaries, 787 native workers, 192
of whom are ordained, 12 foreign phy
sicians, 6 foreign trained nurses, 21 na
tive physicians and 23 native nurses.
“Our missionaries already on the
field have wrought wonderfully for the
Master, considering the “difficultyps
they have had to confront," Dr. J. F.
Love, secretary of foreign missions,
declares, "but we at home have not
supported them as we ought with help
ers of all kinds and with schools, hos
pitals and other agencies to enable-
them to do a larger work in every way
The smallness of the work we havu
done already can be realized when wv
look at the vast number of people who
have not been reached in the foreign
fields we are occupying today. China,
for instance, has a population four
times that of the United States, or one-
fourth the population of the entire
world, and our force the/e consists of
only 65 men, 62 married women, 49
unmarried women, 64 ordained natives
and 420 unordained native helpers.
Japan, which has half as many people
as the United States, is being served
by 9 men, 8 married women, ^‘unmar
ried women, 11 ordained natives and 6
unordained native helpers. In Italy
there are a third as many people as
there are in the United States, yet we!
have there only 2 men, 2 married wom
en, 35 ordained natives, and 3 unordain
ed native helpers. Mexico has 16,000,000
people, and we have In that country
and on the border a missionary force
consisting of 11 men, 11 married wom
en, 3 unmarried women, 24 ordained
natives and 16 unordained native help
ers. Argentina has a population ' of
8,000,000 and our missionary force
there consists of 7 men, 7 married
women, 14 ordained natives, and 7 un
dained native helpers. In Africa,
we have entered only one state, that
of Nigeria, but this state ^as a popu
lation of 20 000,000, and to serve those
people we have only 7 men mission
aries, 6 married women. 3 unmarried
women, 3 ordained natives and 52 un-
ordalned native helpers.* Brazil has a
territory larger than all the United
States and a population of 50,060,000.
Serving those-people we have a fofreo
of 54 men, 33 married women, 2 un
married women, 69 ordained natives,
and 52 unordained native helpers. Our
work in Chile, where there are 3,000-
000 people, is only two years .oM. but
we have 12 churches, and 15 out-sta
tions in which last year there were
122 baptisms. We need at least
200 more missionaries now and from
the proceeds of this campaign we hops
to employ them and then equip them
ahd tnose on the field already for do-
iar the largest work for the Master.*

treated me...but I got no better. I
got worse and worse until the misery
was unbearable...! was In bed for
three months and suffered such agony
that I was just drawn up In a knot...
I told my husband If he would get
me a bottle of Cardul I would try it...
I commenced taking. It, however, that
evening I called my family about
me... for I knew I could not last
many days unless I had a change for
the better. That was six yann •go
and I am still here and am a well
strong woman, and I owe my life to
Cardul. I had only taken half the
bottle when I began to feel better.
The misery in my side got less... 1
continued right on taking the Carfal
until I had taken three bottles and I
did not need any more for I was well
and never felt better4n my life... I
have never had any trouble from that
day to this.'*
