Hishop Suffragan (Jarlnnd writes, in part: "Thp tuition -wide campaign gives to every rector and vestry nn opportunity to present the facts to the .people the needs of the presiding bishop nnd council for the ndmlnistrntlon of the missionary work of tho church nt home nnd abroad tho needs of the diocesp; for our missionary work, church ex tension and for our institutions. "I do not clnltn or believe that the present is the ideal system, but it is n long step forwnrd, nnd innsmucli ns tlie general convention has adopted It ns the present method in the church, we hope tbnt all our people will loyally give It a sympathetic and zealous trial, nnd out of our joint efforts the ideal system will one day be evolved. "In the meantime, it does seem to be n vpry'simple plan to abandon for n while the apportionment system; pre sent the fncts individually to nil members of the church: nnd then nsk them what they arc willing to give not onty to the work in their own parish, hut in 1hp diocese, nnd for the tintional work of the church. Wherever this plan has been tried, and such a personal canvass made, the- results, have been most satisfactory." George WhartoVi Pepper's views of the campaign nre summarized as follows: "Intelligent discussion of the nation wide campaign in Pennsylvania must be preceded by a definite conception of what was the condition of the church in this Jurisdiction before me campaign began.
