THK THIRD HJ'NDAl
IN AUGUST
The third Sunday in August
promises to be a "Red Letter
Day" in the African Methodist
ehuryh in South Carolina. The
Bishop, twenty presiding elders
300 ministers and 75,000 church
people are concerned^ The third
Sunday in-August has been set
aside by Bishop J. S. Flipper and
President Samuel Richard" Hig
gins as Library Rally day for the
library fund of Allen university.
It will be a monumental affair, if
evei yune a ill?respond to the call
made by Dr. JohTr-Thtrrrttt?*' who
issued the proclamation nearly
five weeks ago.
We are; informed that some
ministers are planning to waise
enough in this drive to satisfy the
library claim and the Endowment
Day claim also. This sounds
good and workable. If 60,000 Af
rican Methodist people will contribute
$1.0|3 each they will have
their library money and the budpet
fund too, as we understand
it. Every one is asked to give
one dollar for the library the
third Sunday in August. Allen
university treed*- nmt must have
better library facilities. The present
plan, if pushed, will suffice.
