State of South Carolina, Greetings; Many changes have taken place with-: in our ranks since th?-. fldi""rr"""nt "+'| our Convention in Bennettsville. Dr. ] J. S. Earle who for nearly 14 years vm?Hw?hnilUl'yd . president of this body and under whose leadership our denomination made great progress, resigned the presidency to take up the Supervision of the Mission workj of the Stafo and to sei VP as DistrictMissionary untiL-thtrTText convention^ The__LCsignation of Dr. Earle Caused the mantle which he for so long a time honoi/-ibly and successfully wore to fall upon -your humble servant, the writer.In taking up the unfinished task, I realize the grave responsibility that now falls on me and as best I can I shall set about to carry on this'great work of world redemption and human :nd church advancement., No. President, whatever may be his fithess can well succeed or go very far in putting over a great program without the cooperation and support of those witfc nvhom he has to labor. To this end I solicit the heartiest .support of every jnembec^.udUmrr-?denomination, from the highest iiastojr to t he_hiinib=? to lpt'q " unite our efforts for tjie development of the cause which stUnds today in serious need of unqualified and unsustained support. Realizing the peculiar position in wlykjy J nm now placed and owing an equal duty to EVERY member of the denomination^ ^LU^all -STRFVR-txrffTr tlfe PfciotTI^ri of EVERY Baptist, feeling thateve>iy member of the denomination?shnH-bo= - ~~'rcsponsibte for his orTier i(irt in the suocess of our state program. Constructive, criticism and wholesome suggestions will at all times be j,y^lcomed. I, again ask your support. "Hr ?***" Missions ^ ; For ,a long tilde thelnaimer i 11 which our Mission twork has been carried on ' has . provoked many suggestions and much discussion. Many t x * ..: .1 * 1. ? . # u ~ x nave enter^aiiiuu cnu leeiuig uiul \vu ? -shouhi return to the former mc*1""! of-mrying oh that work while o'hei s have felt that the present Method, if properly worked, will bring the dosired results. With the hope of carrying out a larger (Missionary-program &IU' reaching every church in the state, the Executive Board created the office of Supervisor of Missions. To this' place Dr. Karle wias elected and at the same time elected to fill the office of District Missionary, Dr. Karle not only supervises the Mission work of .the state but he has direct Oversight of special District wo^k whmnhv h<? o ill"^^"eriabled to study from every angle the enlargement of the wor-k, The watch word of all the District Missionaries is Cooperation and I an] appealing to every church to make this our greatest Missionary year. W e ran pn? thfl-jnh ever if svj Icy; Dr. Earlo will likely tour the entire state and I solicit for him of every church and pastor, every help that you may be able to give in helping to carry "* out the nrogipm may nih^non A* our next convention, serious thought will be given to the possibility of going back to the plari of electing a (general Missionary. ' Morris College ? Morris Cullugu stands as a imonument to the Baptists of South Carolina. The progress thus far made is but >a faint indication of what yet ^ can be, if every Baptist will do his or " her part. The hour has come when we must stand our ground and quit ottf^ selves like men.. We can do it. Dr. . Pinson, the President is laboring under handicaps and fighting amidst a crisis and depression unwitnessed in the .history^ -of t-he?College: ~Bt". Hit son should not bear thi^-burden alone. This is our burden?it is a c[ase of ? share and share alike and we a 1 1 should play our parts. So far he has wrought well but the success desired and the aims to be accomplished will not be, unless we give more._than.Avc * have given. Morris College must continue to'carry on the grclat work so well begun. Dr. Pinson will be greatly helped if every pastor would ? once a month take an after collection for Morris College, and whether much or little send it to him. The next day. Its the many small donations that make the few large ones and if every church "wbuHTsend just one dollar .a month, he would get fourteen hundred dollars each month for the school. I appeal to every chuPch and pastor and to each Sunday school to put MoFris College on 2 your monthly budget and then make it as large as possible. ? The Morris College Rally which for twenty years ha*i been an annual affair needs your attention this year < more than ever. Let us heed the call and respond S on Thanksgiving Day like men. f * Benedict College I Dp, .T- J- Sdmrlrn .who-?nl: MiHT,pffr?* for Morris College is now doing for Benedict what many said coulcUmot I be done.
