But probably the largest contribu tion Baptists have made to the wel fare of children in the South is in the establishment of the string of orphanages, there being one of these in practically every state within the bounds of the Southern Baptist Convention. And the lar gest possible provision is hpin maae at taese institutions for thp jómelas tots who have been robbed by tlje Grim Reaper of their natural protect s. Time was in this coun try whn many people felt that or phans were enttjd to little considera-ion further than a shelter, and .'or a hng time they felt that if chil dren without fathers and mothers were pared in homes where they ot fo-yl and shelter in exchange for hard manual labor they had been rp-jüy served. Of course, many hi:-!!.. couples with high Ideals weie .'ad to get children upon whom they rouid bestow their af fect :r;n and Trhorn they were glad o pr' .i-vp wiih a real home, but ma y more instances have been wit nvred '. perions securing orphans and take as large personal interest in bis or her problems and develop ment as possible. Each of these cottages has its own garden, flower plat, wood yard and other institu tions, affording special individual chores for the children, and except at school, religious services, picnics and the like the children are reck oned with in terms of the individual and the family rather than in those of the mass. But the Baptist 75 Million Cam paign does not confine its Interest in children to those of the homeland. There Is now in Europe a com. mission representing the campaign studying to see how this movement can aid most effectively in the re construction of that country, espe cially those portions of it wh!r.h were devastated most largely by contending armies. 'Twenty million dollars could be expended with economy and high Christian purpose in the care of the widows and orphans of our spiritual kinsmen in Europe who have suf fered through these ysrs of war and in the erection of liousej of wor ship, schools and the like," Dr J. F. Love, chairman. of the commission declared on the eve of hi-i departure, aid while it is not contemplated trrat this sum will be available for this purpose under the present pro gram, it Is the settled purpose of the campaign to aid recon3tructioi in France, Belgium, Italy, Czecho slovakia, the Ukraine and other parts of Russia just as fullv as nns- sible and Dr, Love has urged the dren have little or no chance for normal development except in those nomes that have been reached with the enlightenment and love of the gospel. Girls are still unwelcome because of their small economic value, and there are still nested nn the preserves of some of the wealthy residents whose estates adjoin the rivers such signs as, "Xo children shall be drowned on these prem ises." And the treatment for ilia. eases prescribed by the heathen physicians in some of thesp mnn. tries is worse than death itself Shrouded in ignorance, sunprsti. tion and sin as the lives of the children of these lands are in most cases, the missionaries represent ing the Southern Baptist Conven tion are convinced that schnnie tnr the enlightenment of the minds of the children, and modern hospitals where medical and sureical skin can heal their diseased and maimed bodies and put them on the road to happier and more efficient lives, are fundamental to the success of missionary endeavor and the moral and spiritual uplift of the people. So part of the proceeds of the Baptist 75 Million Camaign will go to the establishment of kindergar tens and other Christian editen. tional intsitutions. hosnitals anil homes where orphans can be cared for in the foreign lands. Our mie. sionaries have for a long time been Handicapped by lack of money and other facilities. Frequently they have rescued children who have been thrown out to starve and after resuscitating them, given these out casts a permanent place in their own homes, where many of them have grown into useful Christian workers. Little Money Does Big Work. For the sum of S2S a hnv r totrl Can be maintained in one of ihe mission boarding schools for a year, wnne numerous native children are maintained and instructed in the homes of the missionaries at a cost of $12 a year. for about' $70. If so large a work has been done alreidy, why the need of increas ing it through the Baptist 7o Mil lion Campaign? some may ask. The answer is that the work that has been done In the homeland and on the foreign fields is a very, very small part of what needs to be done. The cry for help is coming up from hundreds of millions of helpless children in all parts of the world who need and crave the priv ileges tpnd blessings of a great Christian civilization such as you covet for the children of your own. It is to help answer this call that the campaign was launched. Other interests than those of children will be fostered at the same time. Of the $20,000,000 apportioned to foreign missions a considerable sum will go to sending more mis sionaries to foreign fields to pro claim the gospel to adults as wpll as to children; $12,000,000 will gq to home missions for its work of evangelism, enlistment, church building, mountain schools and tho like in its vaet field, alone with special work among the foreigners. Indians and Negroes: Sll.00u.ftnn will go to state missions in an ef fort to win to Christ the 13,000,000 unsaved white people within ho territory of the Southern Baptist Convention; $20,000,000 will be ap plied to Christian education In ah. larglng and endowing the Baptist eaucational Institutions of the South; $4,800,000 will go to the hos pitals; $4,700,000 to the orphan ages; and $2,500,000 for the relief of the aged ministers of the Bap tist church who have worn them. selves out in the service of God on salarios that have permitted 'em to save nothing for old age. But investment in the salvation of the children will bear larger ana larger returns throughout the years because millions of them will itv long enough to bless others and to raise up still other children who will pass on these blessings to ath. ers yet unborn. ra a f n a- .

He now rides (when he can get it to go) in a fine new Overland touring car. Of course, there are a few things Mr. Jackson doesn't un derstand about hie car yet. For instance, a few evenings ago he for got to turn his lights out. Next morning his batteries were so low that the car wouldn't start. He was told to be sure and drain the radiator at night. He not only did that, but let the air out of the inner tubes as well. In trying to keep everything well oiled he oiled the brakes and now if he wants to stop in town it's necessary to put on the brakes before he leaves home. But he's learning fast.
