SMITH SUBMITS ANNUAL REPORT On Foreign Missionary Work in Sev eral Foreign Fields. Chattanooga, Tenn., May 12.—(A>) —The Presbyterian Church is prose cuting its foreign mission work in Africa, Brazil, China, Japan, Korea, and Mexico, and despite numerous ob stacles and peculiar difficulties,. con versions during 1925 showed a sub stantial increase in number over those of 1924, Dr. Egbert W. Smith, 'executive secretary of foreign mis sions. declares in his annual report. Tlie report has been prepared to be delivered at the generall assembly of the church in Pensacola, Fla., May 20th. | § “In spite of peculiar difficulties in three of our largest mission,” says Dr. Smith’s report, “the • additions last year were 4,754, an increase of i nearly 500 ov«r the previous year, bringing the total of our foreign com- j munications to 48,455 —this number,! however, being but a part of the real j total, since in several of our mission \ countries thousands of our converts i have been transferred to independent native churches.” Detailing the activities of the for eign mission work of the'church, Dr. Smith made the following report : "Amid heathenism and spiritual destitution, of which we in this fav ored land have no experience and scarcely any conception, our church is now preaching, teaching and living the gospel through fifty-four stations, j 304 organized congregations, 1,696 - out.-stations, 3,278 trained native - workers, 1,008 mission schools and l f Bible with 42,220 students,! ? 1,511 Sabbath schools with 61,850 pupils, 12 mission dispensaries, and 23 hospitals, treating last year over 1 180,000 patients and through daily | clinical practice reaching hundreds 1 of thousands more with the gospel. “Along this far-flung battle front, under alien skies, facing daily dis ’ couragemonf, often weakened by try ing climates and endeavoring each to do two men’s work, our faithful mis sionaries have been pushing forward the Kingdom. Their tireless indus try, their Christ-like iove of the un-; lovely, their joy in self-forgetful ser-! vice, should be an example to us nil.” Foreign mission receipts for 1925 were given in the report as $1,248,- 510, a slight increase, it is said, dver receipts for the same fiscal year of 1924. The foreign missions com mittee, said the report, “is unani mously and heartily in sympathy with each and every effort of the general assembly to preserve orthodoxy, and with its uniform policy of strict ad herence to till' standards of opr his toric faith in the conduct of all its work at home and abroad.” 1 1 i North Carolina Community Music Festival. ~ Tribune Bureau Sir Walter Hotel I Raleigh, May 12.—The second an-f nual North Carolina Community Mu sic Festival will open here on Tliurs- i day night.
