Telegraphic announcement was received in Portland Friday from the New York headquarters . office of the Northern -Baptist convention, stating that the church had com pleted Its $6,000,001) victory cam paign . fund by midnight, December 31, 1919, and that they now laid claim to the $2,000,000 promised by I John D. Rockefeller. This gives the Baptists a fund of 18,000,000 to use for home and foreign mission work. This announcement, was made by Dr. O. C. Wright, executive .secre tary of the Oregon Baptist state con vention. Last May, at the annual meeting of the convention, Mr. Rockefeller prom ised a gift of $2,000,000 provided the church completed Its 86,000,000 campaign by the end of the year. This gift also provides that $1,000,000 shall go to the home mission society and the other mil lion to the foreign missionary society of the denomination. Since making this conditional gift, Mr.. Rockefeller has also made an uncondi tional gift of $2,000,000 to the ministers' and missionaries' benefit board. The above mentioned 810,000,000 Is entirely over and above the money raised for local missionary enterprises within the various states. By- adding the local gifts to the .$10,000,000 the amount given' during the past year by the denomina tion for missionary work would make a total of approximately $25,000,000. Meeting's Will Continue The "Holy Ghost" meetings started last Sunday at the Church of God. Union avenue and Falling streets, will con tinue each night during the coming two weeks, according to an announcement made by the Rev. H. Neal, pastor. PORTLAND MUpah E. 19th and Division Rev. D.
