B. W. Spihnan introduced the following resolution in re-
spect to the Southern Baptist Assembly at liidgecrest, which
was adopted :
SOUTHERN BAPTIST ASSEMBLY
Whereas, the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina inau-
gurated the movement w^hich resulted in the establishment of the
Southern Baptist Assembly, and
Whereas, the Southern Baptist Convention later voted its endorse-
ment of the Assembly, and
Whereas, the Southern Baptist Assembly now^ owns a very valu-
able property located at Ridgecrest. North Carolina, and
Whereas, the Assembly has conducted at Ridgecrest eaf^h summer
during the past ten years a Summer School of Religious Education
and Conferences on various lines of Christian activity, and
Whereas, these summer gatherings have not benefited a very large
number of our people by reason of the limited provision for enter-
tainment now^ at Ridgecrest. and
Whereas, there are in North Carolina within one hundred miles
of Ridgecrest more than 800 Baptist preachers in addition to a much
larger number of other Baptist church workers. Therefore, be it
Resolved, 1. That the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina
endorse the movement inaugui-ated by the Assembly to secure a fund
of $100,000, one half of which is to be expended for equipment and
one half to be an invested endowment.
2. That we commend this work to our people and ask that the
Baptists of North Carolina contribute at least $20,000 of this amount.
3. That we commend to the State Board of Missions, the Ridge-
crest Summer School of Religious Education, as an object of its
beneficence.
E. L. Middletou introduced the following resolution in
reference to an Enlistment Campaign, which was ad<ipted :
Whereas, during 1918 many conditions were abnormal, namely:
The weather for the first two months was unprecedentedly severe.
Conditions caused by the war in many ways interfered with regular
activities. The fearful epidemic of influenza almost stopped all
assemblies for over two months.
And Whereas, some marked results are visible as follows: For
three years baptisms have been decreasing. For two years Sunday
School membership has decreased, and in the South thousands of
schools have not even ordered literature for this quarter, and there
is a marked decrease in the attendance on all our meetings.
MINUTES OF SESSION J91S 19
Therefore, in view of these conditions be it resolved by this Con-
vention:
1. That we appeal to all our people to reconsecrate themselves to
the tasks of their respective churches, and- try in every way possible
to carry forward the work of the churches and of the Kingdom.
2. That the Executive Committee of the Board of Missions use the
month of April, 1919, as enlistment month in our churches to the
end that every church member may be personally appealed to for
definite alignment with every church agency with which he ought
to cooperate.
3. That to each member be given a brief printed statement of the
denomination's program, setting forth our claim for his loyal sup-
port.
Livingston Johnson read the following resolution, sent by
J. W. Bailey, and, after a statement bv Y. I. Masters, of
Atlanta, it was adopted:
RESOLUTIONS REGARDING CHAPLAINS
Whereas, under the War Department of the United States, a condi-
tion has been brought about which makes the Roman Catholic
Church to be directly represented in a sectarian way in our Army,
while Protesitant churches as such are denied any representation
whatever, and
Whereas, this is unjust, un-American, and a grievous wrong in the
eyes of all true Protestants and all lovers of American inatitutions;
now, therefore be it
Resolved, 1. That the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina
does protest against this policy of a wrong against our country, her
soldiers, her institutions, and her spirit; and an intolerable reflec-
tion, whether intended or not. upon all Pi'otestant denominations.
2. That a committee be appointed by this body with three 'pur-
poses, as follows;
(a) To present this protest to the President of the United States
and to the Congress.
(6) To devise and recommend a plan whereby any religious
organization may be as freely and fully represented in our Army
and Navy as any other may be.
(c) To invoke the cooperation of other Protestant organizations,
to the end that the present wrong may be righted, and, further, to
the end that henceforth Christianity as held by the Protestant
churches of America may be upheld fully and effectually among
the armed forces of our country in peace and in war.
(Signed) J. W. Bailey.

The Secretary read the following resolution, offered by
J. H. Matthews, in behalf of the West Chowan Association,
which was adopted :
Whereas, the Christian denominations of North Carolina are con-
tributing largely to the education of the people of our State, through
their educational institutions; and,
MINUTES OF SESSION WIS 27
Whereas, the Bapti&t denomination is now undertaking to raise
one million dollars for the endowment of its educational institutions
in this State in order to increase their usefulness in the field of
education, and to meet the ever-increasing demands of the educa-
tional standard of the times; and.
Whereas, the present educational policy of the State appears to be
discriminatory against the Christian educational institutions, in
that: First. Free tuition and other allowances are made by the
State institutions to be paid out of the public treasury of the State,
instead of being issued directly by the State to the student meriting
the same, to be used as he may elect in any school he may desire to
attend; and, Second. Students from some of the State schools seem
able to secure special privileges in certificates, diplomas and posi-
tions not open to students from the Christian educational institutions
wiho have taken the same course of study and attained the same
degree of proficiency; and,
Whereas, we believe that the existence of Christian educational
institutions, for the training of Christian manhood and womanhood,
is essential to the life and good government of our people, as has
been so clearly demonstrated by the non-Christian educational policy
of the German Governnient, which has brought upon the world the
horrors and crimes against civilization and humanity of the present
worid war; and.
Whereas, as a free, democratic, Christian people, we should request
our great State to remove any existing discrimination in its school
policy, and maintain equal rights and fair treatment to all of the
schools of the State, both State institutions and Christian institu-
tions alike, in order that all may work in harmony and love
in the great task of educating every boy and girl in North Carolina.
Now, therefore, be it
Resolved, That the West Chowan Association hereby petition the
Baptist State Convention, at its next session, to appoint a committee
to investigate the present educational policy of the State with refer-
ence to any possible discrimination against the Christian educational
institutions of this State, or any failure in that policy to recognize
these institutions as a part of the educational machinery of the State,
and to formulate and devise such plans of procedure as in its judg-
ment may be proper to remove such discrimination, should any be
found to exist; and that said committee be empowered to take such
action in the premises as it may deem proper.

L. Johnson read the following report on Women's Work,
which was adopted :
WORK OF OUR WOMEN
We, the members of the Baptist State Convention of North Caro-
lina, wish to express to the members of the Woman's Missionary
Union, our sincere appreciation of the great work they are doing
for the advancement of the Kingdom of our Lord.
We commend most heartily their methods of work. In their study
about missions they are gaining valuable information which is im-
parted to many of the male members of the churches; in having a
definite aim there is before them a constant imspiration; in giving
regularly they are setting a worthy example to the churches, and are
demonstrating the effectiveness of the plan of systematic giving.
Their pi'ayers bring down blessings from the throne upon the whole
church, as their prayers and gifts go up together as "a memorial
before God."
We believe their method of contributing through their societies
and crediting the contributions to the churches is, for the present at
least, and possibly for all time, the best that could be devised. If
the contributions were made through the church budget we fear it
would destroy in large measure the enthusiasm which now charac-
terizes most of the societies, and might result in the death of many
of them.
By the present arrangement they keep up their organization, and
at the same time, are what their name implies, auxiliary to the
Baptist State Convention.
May the blessings of God continue to rest upon the work of our
women is the prayer of this Convention.
L. Johnson supplemented the report on Women's Work
w^ith the following resolution:
We, the members of the Baptist State Convention of North Caro-
lina, hereby express to the Woman's Missionary Union of the State,
our cordial appreciation of the great work they are doing for the
advancement of the Kingdom of our Lord.
30 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
We commend most heartily their methods of work, and we are
sure the time is not yet if, indeed, it will ever be, when these
methods, which have proven so successful, should be changed.
In their mission study our women are gathering valuable informa-
tion which makes them intelligent as to the various mission fields
and their needs, and this information is imparted to other members
of the churches who do not take time to study missions; the definite
aim set before them is a constant inspiration; their prayers for mis-
sions call down blessings on the whole church; and the regularity
with which they give is a demonstration of the value of systematic
giving.
Interest in the work is maintained by raising money in the socie-
ties, and at the same time the church gets credit for the amount
raised, as the money is turned over to the church treasurer. We
believe that a change in financial methods whereby the members of
the societies would contribute through the regular church budget
would result in an abatement of interest, if not in the death of
many of the societies.
We pray God's blessings upon the women and their work.
]\rissioiiary W. C. Newton was recognized.

Jno. A. Oates presented the following report on the Sea-

REPORT OF BAPTIST SEASIDE ASSEMBLY COMMITTEE
The fourth session of the Baptist Seaside Assembly v'as held at
Wrightsville Beach in the summer of 1918 with an attendance out-
side of Wilmington community of 367, not including children.
We expended $1,246.62 for speakers, printing and incidental ex-
penses and received $1,114.63, leaving a small deficit, which the
Assembly will take care of from pledges or otherwise.
This meeting grows in interest and usefulness. It is not just a
summer outing, but a practical and unlifting meeting, combining in-
spiration, instruction and healthful educational entertainment.
Some of the very best speakers in our Baptist brotherhood in
America were with us in 1918 and we have already secured the be-
ginning of an unexcelled platform for 1919.
32 X. C. BAFTI8T STATE CONVENTION
We feel that the institution has already done great good and has
ahead of it a large field of usefulness, which is not covered by any
other agency of our denomination.
We recommend that the same appropriation be made as last year.
Respectfully submitted,
Jiso. A. Oates,

W. C. Barrett made the following report of the Press Com-
mittee, which was adopted:
REPORT OF THE PRESS COMMITTEE
We are glad to report that we have found the newspaper men of
North Carolina to be among the most clever and accommodating
men we have ever dealt with.
The committee secured the services of Dr. Livingston Johnson to
write two articles — one to be published in the weekly papers and
the other in the daily papers. Eighty-five of the weekly papers of
the State accepted the article and agreed to publish it a week before
the regular time for the Convention to meet. The article for the
daily papers was printed in a whole page display, together with
pictures of several of our institutions, in a number of our dailies
on last Sunday. The committee has not paid, or agreed to pay. any
of these papers for publishing these articles,
The committee secured the services of Bro. T. W. Chambliss to re-
port the sessions of the Convention for the daily papers. He is
reporting for 13 of the daily papers of the State.
We have secured the services of Bro. Archibald Johnson to write
a brief news digest of the Convention to be sent to the weekly papers
of the State, which printed the article by Dr. L. Johnson, immedi-
ately on the adjournment of this Convention.
The actual expense of furnishing this matter to the papers will be
about $200, the amount allowed by the Convention.
The committee would suggest that the Convention instruct the
officers, committees, and boards of the Convention to cooperate with
the Press Committee, if continued, in furnishing the news of the de-
nomination and convention to the papers of the State.

reference to the Southern Baptist Sanatorium for Tuber-
culosis in Texas, which was adopted :
SOUTHERN BAPTIST SANATORIUM
Whereas, a great many Baptists, including many ministers and
members of their families, suffer from tuberculosis, and
Whereas, tuberculosis is more prevalent in the South than in the
Nation as a whole and is rapidly spreading on account of the war,
and
Whereas, the people of El Paso, Texas, have donated to the Bap-
tists, and have deeded to the Home Mission Board 143 acres of land
containing a magnificent administration or headquarters building
erected by them at a cost of $65,000, and
Whereas, the Southern Baptist Sanatorium intends not only to
care for and treat tuberculous patients, but to conduct a continuous
campaign against tuberculosis in the South by teaching people
everywhere how to care for tuberculous patients, how to cure tuber-
culosis at home and how to prevent it from spreading, and
Whereas, many poor tuberculous people are now seeking admis-
sion to this institution, which cannot receive them until equipment
is secured for which purpose there are not now sufficient funds, and
Whereas, the Southern Baptist Convention founded the Sana-
torium and committed its work to the Home Mission Board and the
Board is endeavoring to raise $250,000 for buildings and improve-
ments, therefore, be it
Resolved, that North Carolina State Convention give its hearty
endorsement to the Southern Baptist Sanatorium; that we request
our pastors and missionaries to solicit funds and take public offer-
ings for it; our churches, Sunday schools, ladies', young peoples' and
children's organizations to contribute to its work, and that offerings
be forwarded to Superintendent H. F. Vermillion, El Paso, Texas.

outbreak of the influenza epidemic, therefore, be it
Resolved, that we place on record our keen appreciation of the

be it
Resolved, that we extend to this church and its beloved pastor our
sorrow and sympathy because of the sickness that has laid him

ever enlarging results, in this beautiful and prosperous city.
E. L. ]\tidcIleton offered the following resolution of thanks

stay; and

APPENDIX A
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF MISSIONS
In this year of terrific changes throughout tlie world. God has
preserved us and held us together in His work. With grateful hearts
your Board of Missions herewith presents its report to the Eighty-
eighth Session of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina.
With sad hearts we record the going home of Brother John E.
Ray, longer and more closely associated with our Mission work in
North Carolina than any man in its history. It was under his
leadership largely that our work was reconstructed out of the
collapse of the Civil War. After ceasing to be Corresponding Secre-
tary of our Board of Missions be became President of the Board and
was President when he died. We are grateful that the Lord gave
him to work with us and for us so long and so faithfully. We are
sad that now we have to carry on the work without his wise council
and cheering presence.
The Missionary enterprise is the largest undertaking of human
history. The participation of Baptists in it is vital to the success
of the undertaking as a whole. Did we not believe this, we would
merge our identity into the general movement and disappear as a
distinct denomination of Christians in the current annals of Mis-
sions. But the conviction that we have a part vital to the whole
undertaking nerves us to do a distinctive work.
Southern Baptists have two Mission Boards. One charged with
carrying on Mission work in our own country, the other charged
with the responsibility of looking after our Mission work in all
other countries: The Home Mission Board. Atlanta, Ga.; The
Foreign Mission Board, Richmond, Va.
North Carolina Baptists have a Board of Missions appointed for
the task of keeping Foreign and Home Missions laid upon the hearts
of our people and of administering the Mission work that we do
within North Carolina.
Your Board of Missions tries to be consistently faithful and
aggressive alike in the interest of Foreign Missions, Home Mis-
sions, and State Missions.
FOREIGN MISSIONS.
The Foreign Mission Board in its seventy-third annual report to
the Southern Baptist Convention at Hot Springs, Arkansas, last
spring, sounded the most cheering note in the history of our Foreign
Mission work. The receipts in cash to current support were $852,-
MINUTES OF SESSION 191S ' 47
923.73; a gain of $294,362.26 in support of current work over any
former year. For the first time in ten years there was no debt on
our Foreign Mission Board, and contributions to all departments of
our Foreign Mission work mounted beyond the million dollar mark.
Two states this year for the first time in the history of our work
passed the one hundred thousand dollar mark in contributions to
Foreign Missions, Virginia and Texas. We want to see North Caro-
lina come into the hundred thousand dollar column the very first
moment possible.
The situation on our Foreign Mission Fields is appalling and ap-
pealing. The stroke of war has crushed the shells of the past.
Mankind is aware of new anxieties and new possibilities. The
world is looking for a new Master; Jesus Christ is the Lord of
Democracy. We have suffered to accumulate a very large aggre-
gate of necessities on the Mission Fields which we occupy. Our
past successes are our present embarrassments, if we fail to enlarge
our resources and our working force.
Sympathetic individuals among us made directly aware of the
trying situations on the Foreign Field show inclination to divert
their contributions to designated points. This will tend to disin-
tegrate our Foreign Mission work if it should develop too far. The
only sane cure for this tendency is to give our Foreign Mission
Board the means and the men to equip and man the needy situation
of our entire field.
The success of the Judson Centennial Campaign increases our
need of resources. The Jvidson Centennial was not an effort to get
"rid of the work but to get ready for it."
The Foreign Mission Board has an Educational Department that
is doing splendid work in multiplying Mission Study Classes through-
out the Southland. This Class Study work is becoming more inten-
sive each j'ear. Seven thousand six hundred and eighty-one copies
of the text-book "Romance of Missions in Nigeria" were sold and
used last year.
There were 6,290 baptisms; we have now 464 churches, of which
141 are self-supporting, with a membership reaching a total of
53,629. We have 715 Sunday Schools, with 34,428 scholars; 482
literary schools of all grades with 13,866 scholars. In our eleven
Theological Training Schools were 302 students. The Theological
Training School in Italy has been closed on account of the war.
Our missionary physicians gave the amazing number of 104,271
treatments during the year. Such are the figures, but how far
short do they come of telling the real story!
BIRD'S-EYE VIEW— WORK THROUGHOUT THE STATE.
Africa. — Some of the darkest places have begun ta-respond to the
missionaries in this backward continent. The city of Oyo is a
notable example of this. Boys in considerable numbers are begging
48 X. C. BAPTIST tiTATE COXVEXTIOX
Missionaries to help them get an education. The troublesome ques-
tion of polygamy is being settled in the churches. Self-support is
growing as rapidly in the African churches as anywhere else on our
Mission Field. There is great opportunity for Baptists in Nigeria.
In this country they are building good graded roads. A form of
civilization is coming — it ought to be Christian.
Argentina had come sympathetically much closer to our country.
During the year four of our battleships and four thousand of our
sailors and marines were welcomed in the streets of Buenos Aires.
The purchase of Once Church in this capital city through the help
of the Judson Centennial puts work there in much better shape;
the Argentine Baptist work has already developed three agencies
for Mission work: The Local Mission Board, the Publication Board
and the Theological Training School.
Brazil is the China of the new world. Our Brazillian churches are
growing in self-support. In the North Brazil Mission we have three
times as many self-supporting churches as one year ago, and the
number of church houses has been increased one-third during the
year. The Rio Baptist College and Seminary enrolled 288 students.
35 of whom are students for the ministry.
China is still a standing challenge to Missionary faith and con-
quest. Our Mission work in China is divided into Central China
Mission, Interior China, North China, Packhoi and South China.
Christian education is making a beautiful start in old China. Mr.
Kwok at Hong Kong gave $22,000 to the Boys' Academy, and the
Chinese have undertaken to raise $150,000 (Mexican) for the im-
provement of the school. The China Baptist Publication Society,
the Home Mission Board in South China and the growing number
of self-supporting churches all about over the Mission Field of
China gives us assurance that Christianity is getting rooted in this
great slow country.
Italy has felt the stroke of the world war more directly than any
of our Mission Fields. Three of its most beautiful and valuable
provinces were invaded by the Austro-Germans. Our Baptist people
have done a good work among the Italian soldiers. They had twelve
soldier halls where special work was done for the benefit of the
Italian warriors for freedom. Some of our Italian Baptist pastors
were called to arms. One became a captain, another an oflBcial on
a war-ship while still another did his work in the aviation corps.
Japan. — Japanese and Americans have been a little suspicious of
one another during the last decade. The Ishii Lansing agreement has
done much to clear up this suspicion. The Japanese feel them-
selves to be thoroughly allied with the other nations in fighting
for the safety of Democracy. Our Baptist paper '"The Christian,
Church Record'' has probably a larger circultaiton than any de-
nominational organ in Japan.
Mexico is still topsy-turvy. It will take her some time to right
herself up from her series of revolutions, but Roman Catholicism
MINUTES OF SE8SI0N J91S 49
has been dealt a blow from the Mexican Government from which
it can never recover. Sad to say. many of its people have been
shaken from their religious moorings. Now they are more willing
than ever to hear the true pure gospel of Jesus. The Theological
Training School at Saltillo is open. Twenty-one students are in
attendance.
The Womans' Missionary Union contributed last year to Foreign
Missions, $232,966.68.
The Judson Centennial fund is nearing completion. Last year
ther« was given to the fund $153,205.69.
HOME MISSIONS.
The Home Mission Board presented this year its seventy-third
annual report at Hot Springs. The current contributions to this
object this year were nearly two hundred thousand dollars beyond
those of last year.
The changes incident to our participation in the "World War are
stupendous and staggering. For the time immigration has well-
nigh ceased, but conditions are being created that call for masterful
treatment. Thousands upon thousands of workers in the ship-build-
ing plants from Baltimore to Galveston constitute a new field, where
our social and religious problems are going to be acute. A nitrate
plant at Mussel Shoals, Alabama, has been built by the Government,
and thousands of employees have moved in there. The town of
Florence, adjacent, has more than doubled in population in the last
few months. A similar condition exists around Nashville, Tennessee,
where the great munitions plant, costing sixty or a hundi'ed million
dollars, is being erected by the Government. These are but samples
of mighty changes that are calling for immediate and heroic treat-
ment by our Mission Boards.
The Home Mission Board is cognizant of the strategic importance
of taking care of our educational centers. The following is a
demonstration of the statesman-like view that enters into the Home
Board's conception of its great task in our Southern States:
Our educational institutions must be strengthened and millions
in endowment furnished. That is a specific field for education
boards. But there is an equally great need for efficient church
plants to rightly discharge our obligations to the students in our
educational institutions. Ten million dollars in the next five years
ought to be spent by Baptists in church building at these educa-
tional centers. If the denomination would place in the hands of
the Home Mission Board $500,000 a year for this work during the
five years, we could stimulate the expenditure of $2,000,000 a year in
addition by the local forces. In this way we would be prepared to
put our religious convictions and life into our schools and especially
into our State Schools, where sectarian religious instruction is for-
bidden. At this point our mission boards and our educational boards
4
5U
A'. C. BAPTlaT UTATK (JOSYEMION
must have a sympathetic and cooperative program worth while, or
the progress of our cause will be irretrievably impaired.
Here is a summary of the year's work by the Home Board.

DEPARTMENTAL WORK
Our work uuder the various departments without exception has
made most gratifying progress during the year.
The following are the regular departments of the Home Board's
work.
Cooperative Missions. — This continues to be the sympathetic, bind-
ing and great cooperative feature of our work with the State Boards.
We are keeping in close touch and fellowship with the work in the
various states, and no one feature ot our endeavors has contributed
quite so much towards cementing our Baptist people into one great
sympathetic, cooperative body, thus making for the solidarity and
mighty power of Southern Baptists as a great religious entity and
force for the advancement of Christian civilization at home and
abroad.
The utmost cordiality and harmony prevail between our Home
Board and the State Agencies with which we are doing this co-
operative work.
Enlistment. — In the very closest relations with our Cooperative Mis-
sion work is our Enlistment Department, which gives peculiar em-
phasis to tlie matter of enlistment and development as contrasted
MINUTES OF SESSION 191S 51
with, evangelism. It is the development of the implanted life and
has for its aim the systematic and symmetrical training of our people
in all Christian life and activity. Its value is set forth and some of
the exhibited results under the special treatment of the subject 4n
this report.
Church Extension. — No subject merits more serious considerations
of Southern Baptists than that of proper and ample facilities in
church building for the prosecution of our Ohristian task. In no
year has this department received such favor and cooperation from
our people. While Ave have had only one worker, the superintendent,
in the canvass for the completion of our Million-Dollar Church Build-
ing Loan Fund, the results of the year's work show a splendid advance
in cash and a large increase in pledges made for this work.
We have one more year in which to conclude the great task of rais-
ing the Million-Dollar Loan Fund. Our good women are to complete
the work of raising their $325,000 of this amount. With the united
cooperation of the brotherhood we are confident that at the next Con-
vention we can report the work completed.
Mountain Schools. — A heavy draft has been made by the World War
on the man-power of all the schools and in large measure this has
been the case with our Mountain Schools. The superintendent, how-
ever, reports steady and encouraging progress with a well recognized
increase in the finer elements of Ohristian development throughout
the whole region w<here our schools are located. As a missionary
evangelizing and developing agency our Mountain School System has
been conspicuous.
Cuba and Panama. — Never before has there been so hearty and
sympathetic and so close relationship existing between the United
States and the Latin Republicans from the Rio Grande to Cape Horn.
This friendly and closer relationship opens to us in many respects
the most inviting field out of our borders to be found anywhere under
the sun. Immediately near us is Cuba and just beyond Panama where
our work has been peculiarly blessed during this conventional year,
as will be found in the reports from this Department.
Publiciti/. — We have followed the instructions of the Convention in
giving greater attention to publicity than ever before. Our denomi-
national weeklies have been very cordial and considerate in giving
large space for the presentation of our work in addition to their
editorial support and championship.
We have made use this year of advertising which has richly justi-
fied the new venture.
We have never made so wise and effective use of our books and
tracts and other literature as we have done during the year. The
new book, "The Call of the South," by the Superintendent of Publicity,
is just out and is meeting with high and deserved favor. It treats
in splendid fashion various phases of our work and its extensive
circulation -will result in great good.
f
52 -V. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
Foreigners, Indians and Negroes. — Immigration has largely ceased,
but our work among the foreigners already in our midst needs far
greater accentuation and the measure of success attending our work
among the aliens is high warrant for prosecuting it with all diligence.
The year's work has been solid and will abide. We are making true
American citizens of these foreigners in pix>portion as we make-
faithful and God-fearing Christians of them.
We have begun new work among the Cherokee Indians of Western
Northern Carolina and the remnant of Choctaws in Mississippi with
gratifying outlook for the future. Our work among the PaAVTiees,
Otoes. and Osages has been remarkably encouraging during the. year.
Many conversions and baptisms are reported, as well as a higher
standard of Christian life and ideals. The Lord is honoring the
faithful labors of our missionaries in a striking manner.
Negroes. — We continue our work for the Negroes in cooperative
missions with the Home Mission Board of their National Baptist
Convention, with special evangelists, and a number of theological
teachers. These last mentioned are also giving large attention to
conferences and institutes for the development and training of preach-
ers and deacons and also for the uplift of the church membership in
general among our colored brethren. We have hearty attestation
from many sources of the value of this work. We must increase it,
for the field is needy and inviting.
Besides these regular departments the Home Board for the last
year or two has been charged with some special obligations. It is
fostering the Baptist Bible Institute in New Orleans, which recently
came into possession of the splendid property of Sophie Newcomb
College. The Home Board is also looking after our interest and our
duty in a Negro Theological Seminary. The Home Board is doing
a splendid work among the soldiers of our country and was entrusted
with the responsibility of assisting our Government in finding and
selecting chaplains out of our Southern Baptist ministry. A Tuber-
culosis Sanatorium has also been established at El Paso in the main-
tenance of which the Home Board has been given some definite ob-
ligations.
The women of the Woman's Missionary Union gave to Home Mis-
sions last year $182,425.45.
We urge all our people to subscribe for the Home and Foreign
Fields which is a splendid monthly mission journal giving the facts
of our Home and Foreign Mission work. No Baptist intelligently in-
terested in our Home and Foreign Mission work would be willing to
go a year without reading the reports of both these Boards in the
Minutes of the Southern Baptist Convention.

The Board of Missions has seven departments of work.
There is a decrease in many items of this tabulation, due to the
fact that many fields of the Board have been vacant w^hose pastors
have been serving in the Great War. Besides, our churches have
been closed several weeks on aooount of the influenza epidemic.
1. EVANGBXISM.
This will always be our first work. "We have had working in
this Department 159 men this year. There were 1,621 conversions
and 1,004 baptisms. A sad fact — the number of baptisms drops again
in this report. Why this decrease in conversions? Is it a cooling
off of our evangelistic fervor, or is it due to the partial evangeliza-
tion which we have been doing in the past; baptizing believers and
54 X. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
then neglecting the culture of our converts so that the claims of the
Lord do not stand out in compelling demonstration in the life of our
churches?
It may be that this decrease is due to the fact that more of our
churches have become self-supporting and hence fewer are getting
aid from our Board of Missions, thus lessening the total of conver-
sions and baptisms reported to our Board. Our success in the past
may be diminishing the demand for aid to churches unable to sup-
port themselves. If after a study of the question it develops that
there is really a letting up of our evangelistic efforts, it would be
well for our Board of Missions to employ a force of strong evange-
lists in the State.
We have part of the year cooperated with the Home Mission Board
and the War Council of the North Baptist Convention in the support
of Camp Pastor work in Camp Green and Fort Caswell. We appro-
priated to this worthy cause $823.24, and there were reported from
it 497 conversions and 29 baptisms.
2. Church Building.
Where the gospel draws the people together for fellowship and
worship and woi'k in any community a house becomes necessary.
Our Board of Missions in a limited way, is helping weak mission
Churches to erect houses of worship. Last year we spent in this
Department of our work $7,500. Next year we shall not be able to
spend over $10,000 in this -n-x^rk.
It is a growing conviction with us that our Board of Missions
should not put money in church houses which do not provide Sunday
School rooms for the teaching of God's word, and that we should be
very cautious in helping to build houses not located with reference to
the school of the community which they are to serve so that the
teaching work of the church and of the day school may be coordinated
in the life of the young generation.
3. COLPORTAGE.
This is a department of our work started this year. We have
done $1,512.64 amount of business. Seven men have worked in this
Department a part of the year. We are slowly building up a mail
order system so as to supply at market price any book that any of
our people might wish to secure. Price list may be had by applica-
tion. It is the aim of the Board to employ men who will work in the
capacity of both Missionary and Colporteur. For the work as Mis-
sionary a salary is paid; for the work as Colporteur a commission is
allowed and all Colporteurs are bonded.
There are three lines along which we are going to work:
(1) Selling Good Books. We do this through Colporteurs, or
through mail orders. If you want any book on the market, write
the Colportage Department, Board of Missions, Raleigh, N. C.
MINUTES OF SESSION 191S 55
(2) Distributing Free Tracts and Literature. It is easy to print
free tracts, but the problem is to get them handed out to the readers.
We think we have solved the problem. The Board of Missions
prints a Bulletin each month. This is sent to the churches in clubs
by Parcel Post at the rate of only $1 per dozen per year. Each copy
of the Bulletin serves as a wrapper for a good free tract each month,
and these are to be distributed in the churches.
Let each church in this Association take a club of this Bulletin
and Tract-Wrapper large enough to supply each family in its mem-
bership, every month in the year.
(3) Enlarging the Circulation of the Biblical Recorder. This Is
at present the most vital thing in our Baptist work in North Carolina.
Our Baptist State Convention can never outgrow the circulation of
Its medium of communication.
The Board of Missions is undertaking to aid the Biblical Recorder
in getting 12,000 now subscribers.
It is further urged that as an aid in increasing the Recorder sub-
scriptions, that each church take a club of the Tract- Wrapper Bulletin
which will carry each month to its membership an appetising flavor
of the Recorder, and at least two good tracts each year on the work
of the Recorder.
Let's be in earnest about this business. One thousand new paid-up
reading subscribers to the Recorder would perhaps be worth more
to the cause in the end than $10,000 given directly to State Missions.
We are unwilling for the Colportage opportunity in North Carolina
to be monopolized by the Mormans, Christian Scientists and Russel-
ites. We mean to do our part in this line of Christian service. It
is our ideal to cover North Carolina with the work of these Colpor-
teurs and to equip our Colportage Department to furnish anything
in the book line that our Baptist people might desire to use.
4. Mobile Schools.
We had nine schools with 54 teachers and 545 students. Our plans
for next year are much larger. We purpose to have about 60 of these
Schools: Two series of them, one in (March) and the other in the
summer. The work of these Schools is laid out on a five-year plan.
We Baptists have made the expensive error of depending on large
mass meetings and strong men to carry on the Lord's work. We
need to follow the line of intensive work in small groups, this was
the method of Jesus. Our country has recently shown that raw
democracy can go into training and become efficient. Our Baptist
churches must do likewise. We mean to push these schools until
at least one Baptist in three is in touch with them. This means a
large task is to be done. It will take hundreds of these schools and
thousands of teachers. This work is barely begun.
56 -V. C. BAPTIST STATE VONVENTIOX
5. Woman's Missionary Union.
It has been thirty-two years since the Woman's Missionary Union
presented to the State Convention its first report. Year by year our
interest in mission work has increased and has sho\vn itself by
greater activity and larger gifts, so that instead of the thousand dol-
lars given in 1886, we report this year a total of $63,101.76. The work
that our Union has endeavored to accomplish has been largely edu-
cational— not so much a matter of securing gifts for our mission
enterprises — but a matter of training our women and children in
mission thought and activity, and, by so doing, laying a foundation
for larger things in the years to come.
We have 1,557 societies, 193 having been added to our roll the past
year. Our work is organized in fifty associations. Forty-seven asso-
ciational meetings were held during the year, at which nearly 800,
societies were represented. Thirty-three of these meetings were
attended by ofl5cers of the Union or members of the Executive Com-
mittee.
The annual meeting of the Union was held in Asheville. March
26-29, at the beginning of the great German drive last spring. Not-
withstanding the anxiety and stress of the hour, and the fact that
many mothers had sons leaving for the camps at that time, these
things were put aside for a few days and the thoughts of all were
centered on the spiritual side of life. A new knowledge of God's
plan for each individual life seemed the desire of every heart.
Other meetings attended by officers during the year were the South-
ern Baptist Convention, the Seaside Assembly at Wrightsville, the
Woman's Missionary Union Conference at Ridgecrest, and the En-
campment at Virginia Beach. Eleven thousand six hundred and
fifty-two miles were traveled. In addition to this, the associational
superintendents reported 9,000 miles traveled in their work, making
a total of 20,652 miles.

In the beginning of our work, there was sincere and persistent
opposition to any organization of the women in our churches. This
has been largely overcome, as we have endeavored to work always
as an auxiliary organization and under the direction of our State
Board of Missions and our denominational leaders. To the pastors
of the State who have given us their loyal cooperation and sympathy
in all our plans, we owe an everlasting debt of gratitude which we
gladly acknowledge, and we give them credit for much that has been
accomplished. The danger that lies before us in the larger day
that is dawning in missionary work, is the tendency that we see
from some sources to absorb the missionary society in the general
plans of the church.
For evidence that the present plan of work is a safe and successful
one, we refer you to the records of the past thirty-two years with
their gifts of more than $600,000. and their proportionate expense of
less than 41/2 per cent. That the day may come speedily when all our
people have the interest of the kingdom of our God so at heart that
they will give of their means, their time and their prayers without
special organizations and appeals, is greatly to be desired, but as
yet, in our judgment that day has not arrived. Therefore we ask
from the brotherhood of our Baptist State Convention a larger
interest in our efforts to organize and train the women and chil-
dren of our churches in mission thought and giving.
58 X. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
There are 145,000 women in our churches. Twenty-five thousand
of these are already at work in our societies. If these 25,000 workers
contribute $63,000 a year to mission objects, what may we not ex-
pect when we reach, with the aid of our pastors, our unenlisted
women!
In the midst of world confusion and strife, the work of our
Union had gone steadily forward, so that we see today not only our
aims for the year realized, but a general state of development not
hitherto reached by our societies. We are moved to exclaim with
the apostle, "Thanks be unto God who glveth us the victory."

1. Time of Testing. During the past year, our Baptist Young
People's Unions have passed through the refiner's fire. They have
given to the cause of World Freedom many of their very best young
men, not a few of whom will never return from France. To meet
the condition thus thrust upon them, the personnel of oflBcers and
members underwent readjustments; young women very often sup-
plied vacancies; and, under the inspiration of the ideals and the
self-sacrificing spirit of the young men who went away, new re-
cruits were found to fill up the gaps in the ranks. The epidemic
quarantine followed, with its season of suspension and enforced in-
activity, during which time, however, many of the young people
kept up such work as could be done privately and at home. The
indications are that, now, notwithstanding, but because of the strain
and stress of the times, the B. Y. P. U.'s have a vigor and a prospect
unsurpassed in the history of our work.
2. Num'ber of Organizations. But the number of new unions has
not, therefore, increased proportionately to the progress in this re-
spect during the year preceding. The machinery has not ceased
but the operators have had to supply parts and repair damages
rather than reel off the output and products. The fact that there
has been even a slight increase in the number of unions during
the year and the actual demise of so few, betokens the husbanding of
strength which will mean a large and healthy growth in the years
just ahead.
3. General Organizations. There are well organized city unions in
Asheville, Charlotte, Winston-Salem, Greensboro, Durham, Raleigh,
and Wilmington. Mars Hill College has a general union composed
MINUTES OF SESSION 191S 59
of the four organizations among the students. Plans have been laid
for the organization of county unions which could not be carried
out because of the quarantine. "We have reached the limit of our
possibilities in the number of city-wide unions with perhaps one
exception; and most of these are now arranging campaigns to ex-
tend the work to county boundaries.
4. A-1 Unions. It has been impossible to secure such reports,
since the epidemic, as would enable us to state the number of
Standard, or A-1, Senior and Junior organizations in the State at
this time. Records have been suspended, as were the meetings
themselves. However, there seems to be quite as many on the Honor
Roll as last year, allowing for the omission of the weekly and the
average attendance requirements in the standard for the period of
the epidemic. This showing is highly creditable to the young peo-
ple of the State.
5. Schools and Colleges. Again, it is our pleasure to report a
fine showing by our Baptist schools and colleges, with organiza-
tions ranging in number from one to four in each of them but one,
and with a steady increase of A-1 Unions among the number.
6. Finances. A summary of the expenses of the Department ap-
pears in the report of Treasurer Walters Durham, and need not be
reproduced here. We should say, however, that the item of expenses
includes office rent, stamps, stationery, printing, office supplies and
traveling expenses of the secretary.
OUR WORK.
1. The Office. As heretofore, all office work has been done by the
secretary without clerical help and at such times when he was not
engaged in the field. It consisted chiefly in routine correspondence,
the distribution of B. Y. P. U. literature, the B. Y. P. U. Convention
program together with the publication and mailing of the Conven-
tion Minutes, the supervision of Unions by means of reports sent
out, received, collated and filed, and supplying weekly material for
the page in the Biblical Recorder.
2. The Field. During the year, the secretary has been in the field
174 days, visiting 112 different points, traveling 7,535 miles and mak-
ing 183 lectures, addresses, etc. This is slightly less than the pre-
vious year's record, due to the closing of many churches during the
months of December and January last on account of bad weather,
the quarantine of October this year which annulled practically a
full month's engagements, and the Million-Dollar Campaign for
Christian Education in November to which the secretary gave his
services in company with the other employees of the Board.
3. The Convention. The Ninth Annual B. Y. P. U. Convention was
held in the city of Winston-Salem, June 11, 12 and 13, 1918. Not-
withstanding the absence of a host of young men who had been
regular in attendance, the number of delegates was quite up to the
60 .Y. C. BAPTIHT STATE COXVEXTIOX
average for the two previous sessions. Of the 300 young people pres-
ent, fully two-thirds had never before attended a general Baptist
gathering of any sort. The outstanding feature of the Convention
was the spirit of Loyalty, to which the young people gave expression
in Resolutions which have been published and widely appreciated
by the Baptist Brotherhood. The Tenth Convention is to be held
at Asheville, June 10, 11 and 12, 1919.
4. Ti-aining Schools. Four City Training Schools for B. Y. P. U.
workers, each lasting a week, have been held during the year. Pro-
grams for two others were not carried out because of the quarantine
in October. The secretaiT had the assistance of Mr. Arthur Flake,
of Baldwyn, Miss., in all of them, and that of Miss Sadie Tiller, of
Murfreesboro. Tenn.. in one.
A( KNUWLEDGMEXTS.
We desire to acknowledge our obligations:
1. To the Baptist Sunday School Board, of Xashville, for the ap-
propriation of $500 made to the State Board in consideration of our
work; and for the presence of ^Ir. Flake and Miss Tiller at the
several City Training Schools.
2. To the State Board of Missions for an appropriation sufficient
to meet urgent necessities; and to Secretary Walter N. Johnson for
the warm-hearted cooperation which he has given us in our work.
3. To the B. Y. P. U.'s of the State who have expressed their
fealty by offerings to our cause, and in other ways have responded
so splendidly to leadership in the Lord's work.
4. To Dr. Livingston Johnson, Editor, and the Biblical Recorder,
for excellent editorial commendation of the Baptist Young People's
Union, and for the special Department of the paper allotted to our
use.
RECOMMENDATIONS.
We wish to recommend most earnestly:
1. That our pastors make definite plans for the enlistment of their
young people in some phase of local church work, such as the con-
duct of prayer meetings or a Sunday night service, and worship
exercises in private homes or elsewhere as the need and oppor-
tunity may exist.
2. That the workers in our churches consider for themselves, and
urge upon their young people, the necessity of attending the insti-
tutes, or schools, in the State Board's system, to be held during the
coming year; to the end that they may take part in and get the
advantage of the definite B. Y. P. U. training which will be afforded.
3. That in the campaign for an increased circulation of the Bibli-
cal Recorder, the young people be drafted for service; and especially
in the effort which is to be made among the B. Y. P. U.'s of the
State early next year.
MINUTES OF SESSION J91S 61
4. That the B. Y. P. U Study Courses, dealing with practical
church affairs, receive more careful and extended attention, in order
that our people may be more thoroughly informed in Baptist be-
liefs and practices.
5. That the appropriations made to the Department by the State
Board and the Unions of the State last year be continued.
7. Sunday Schools.
The most eventful year in a thousand years is closing. It has
been a year of stress and strain, and uncertainties — a year of untold
horrors and unequaled sorrows. A year for the accumulation of
great wealth, and a year of the greatest destruction of wealth.
Christian people have looked on these things with varying opinions
and emotions. Some see God speaking to his people in chastise-
ment for their good. Others see in these providences only mystery.
May God help us to see Him in it all, working out His Glory and
our good.
PRESENT CONDITIONS.
A church member is kept on the rolls though a thousand miles
away, and absent from the church for years. A member of a Sun-
day School is dropped from the rolls in from thirty to ninety days
after he ceases to attend. With the unprecedented weather the first
two months of this year, the epidemic the last two months of the
year, and at least 10,000 of our young men from our Sunday School
in the Army and Navy, we show a loss in membership of 7,170. We
now have 2.125 Sundays Schools with a membership of 212,841.
There are reported seventy-two branch schools. It seems 2,053
churches have schools and 138 have none. At least half of these
138 are entirely inactive — no pastor and no meeting of any kind.
We look with confidence, and hope for a great increase in member-
ship in 1919.
ACTI\^TIES OF THE SECRETARY.
1. Field Work. The secretary had never before planned for so
much time in the field, but the extremely cold weather, with snow,
and coal shortage, annulled many engagements from December 10,
1917, to February 10. 1918. Then again his institutes and associa-
tions from October 10th to November 10th were annulled on account
of the epidemic. In spite of these conditions he personally reached
eighty-five churches in thirty-six associations, speaking and con-
ducting Normal Classes 193 times.
2. Office Work. The routihe work of attending to a growing gen-
eral correspondence was done. This ought to be developed until
every Sunday School worker shall feel free to discuss his problems
with our department of the Mission Board.
The campaign of education through free tracts was pressed
through the year. It is safe to say 20.000 of these tracts were
62 X. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
used. Any woi'ker, anywhere, can get this valuable help for the
asking. The superintendents and pastors were circularized when-
ever any definite work in the denominational program called for it —
Missionary Day, Children's Day, Go to Sunday-School Day. etc.
3. Teacher Trainino. We are glad at any progress and especially
in making the work of the Sunday School more eflficient. To date
we have in the State 4,852 Normal Diplomas, 663 Red Seals, and 195
Blue Seals. This is a gain respectively of 380, 105 and 24. These are
the smallest gains we have made in several years. The fact that al-
most everything is abnormal, is the only way we can account for
this departure from normal gains. Our colleges and schools did far
better than our churches. T^ey broke all records except one year,
and the "falling-down" of one institution accounts for that.
Still there is ground for encouragement. Only two states in the
South have more diplomas than we, and we are steadily gaining on
one of these.
4. Standard Sunday/ Schools. Last year we had eighteen of these.
They are our Annual Honor Roll. They are as follows: Apex, Bells,
Buies Creek, Belmont First, Cedar Falls, Coats, Centerville, East
Lumberton, Hebron. High Point-First, Immanuel. Mars Hill. Olive
Chapel, Orphanage, Pullen Memorial and Spring Branch. There
ought to be, and there could be with a little effort, at least fifty
schools on this list.
5. Baptist Seaside Assembly. Our Secretary has been General
Secretary of this body from its organization. The fourth annual
session last summer was a marked success. The attendance was not
so large as last year, but the program was more comprehensive than
ever before, and we have never before had such sustained interest
and marked spirituality. We are trying to make this a real part
of our system of Christian Education. A distinguished visitor says
it must become our general post graduate institution. It is the
earnest desire of the secretary and your committee that there shall
be an assembly equally as effective at Ridgecrest.
RURAL INSTITUTES.
In January, 1918. the Sunday School Board. Nashville, Tenn..
appropriated $5,000 to the several states to be used in rural insti-
tutes, supplementary to the regular work done hitherto. This
money was to be duplicated by the states. Our work was laid out to
use .$700 — one-half coming from the Board. The actual cost was
$593.68. The entire amount would have been used, but for the
canceling of nine institutes on account* of the epidemic.
When the associations met the appropriation had not been made,
so there was no provision for them. There was some difliculty in
fitting so many new meetings into the denominational machinery.
Next year there ought to be no difficulty in locating, and holding
these institutes.
MINUTES OF SESSION 1^)18 ft3
The Secretary made all engagements. He attended every institute
possible. Thoroughly competent help was secured. The number
of institutes held by each is gi,ven as follows: Dr. L. E. M. Free-
man, 11; Rev. E. F. Sullivan, 8; Rev. W, S. Olive, 4; Rev. R. H.
Herring. 3; Rev. S. C. Hilliard, 1; Rev. G. A. Martin, 5; Rev. Benj.
Sorgee, 2; Rev. W. N. Cook, 3; Rev. E. L. Baskin, 2; Prof B. P.
Marsbanks, 1; Prof. H. T. Hunter, 5; Secretary E. L. Middleton,
IS;. As far as possible there were two teachers at each place.
The entire Division I of the Normal Manual was taught in every
place as far as it was possible. Every effort was made to secure
Normal Classes in the churches represented, and all the schools
were urged to take a religious census and grade the schools.
This year there were forty-one institutes held. This work will be
enlarged next year. We want to reach at least one hundred centers
with the work.
FINANCES.
Our people at last are showing a willingness to support this work
liberally. The total receipts for the year have been $3,962.35. Of
this $850 was given by the Sunday School Board, and $3,112.35 by
our churches and Sunday Schools. This is $461.26 more than in 1917,
and $1,162.02 more than 1916. Liberal offerings on Children's Day
and an extra $350 from the Board made most of the increase. The
disbursements this year have been $3,503.45. This leaves a balance
of $458.90, besides a balance from last year. See treasurer's report.
We are now in a financial condition to make marked advances in
the work for 1919.
RECOMMENDATION.S.
1. Former plans and policies must be pressed as follows: Pastors
must be definitely enlisted in the work of their schools. Officers
and teachers must be trained. Thousands of the 190,000 unenlisted
church members must be reached. Church houses must be built or
remodeled to secure class-rooms. Equipment must be purchased.
The schools must be graded and otherwise adequately organized.
2. We recommend the committee be instructed to secure an asso-
ciate worker to begin as early after March 1, 1919, as is practical.
3. The Rural Campaign shall be enlarged as follows: (1) The
cooperation with the Mission Secretary in holding fifty or more
workers' schools; (2) The holding of at least fifty other rural insti-
tutes, and (3) The use of an Elementary Worker for three months.
4. At least ten City Training Schools should be held, using help
furnished by the Sunday School Board and other voluntary and
paid workers.
5. There should be enlargement of the study of Sunday School
Pedagogy in our colleges and schools, as far as this can be done,
without overcrowding the present curricula or displacing other es-
sential subjects. Is it asking too much to urge every high school
64 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
graduate to secure the diploma with at least two book seals, and
every college graduate to secure a Blue Seal Diploma?
6. We recommend the work planned on a $5,000 basis with $1,300
of this coming froin the Sunday School Board, and $3,700 from our
own people.
L. E. M. FREEMAN, Chairman.
E. L. MiDDLETON, Secretary.
NEEDS OF BOARD NEXT YEAR.
1. Emphasize Volunteer Work. Field work in our Baptist churches
is always expensive and is sometimes confusing. We have made a
fundamental discovery in our Baptist work this year: One hundred
men who have volunteered for a specific work can meet together for
two or three days and go over the work to be done at less cost to
the denomination than the salary and expenses of one traveling
representative. Volunteer service is of the essence of New Testa-
ment Christianity and modern democracy. We shall depend more
and more on volunteer services to get our State Convention work
presented in our associations and churches. In this way we widen
and deepen the sense of participation in our work on the part of our
men and women. Every section of our State is brought into self-
sufficiency for its tasks in the larger cooperative work of North
Carolina Baptists.
2. Increased Pastoral Suiyport. The inadequate support of our pas-
tors is the sorest spot in our Baptist life. It is working out two
paralyzing results in our work. First, it is forcing ministers to di-
vide their time and thought between the ministry of the gospel and
some secular make-shift to get a living. In the second place, it is
forcing these one-half time pastors to scatter out their services as
pastor into four, six and even eight churches.
The hour has come for our Board of Missions to throw all the
weight it can into this deplorable situation. Your Board can ap-
proach this task in two ways. First it supplements by appropria-
tion the salaries of the pastors in some of our weaker churches. In
the second place, it needs to work through some of the stronger
pastors as volunteer enlistment workers, to get indifferent strong
churches to increase the support of their pastors. A very small
amount spent to pay the expenses of this volunteer service will in-
crease pastoral support thousands of dollars.
From 1913 to 1918, says the United States Bureau of Labor, retail
food prices have increased 69 per cent. Clothing likely advanced in
cost at about the same rate. The salaries of pastors have not in-
creased more than 10 per cent in the same time. Hundreds of pas-
tors have not had a cent of advance. This is really a serious matter.
3. Accommodate Between Convention Work and Budget Churches.
We concur with the Foreign Mission Board in the following advice
MIJ^'UTES OF SE 88102^' 191S 65
to budget churches: "We would recommend that, in putting on the
Budget System in any church, no pledge be given the church mem-
bership that special collections will not, under any circumstances,
be taken. Here are some reasons for this suggestion: (1) There
are some members in all churches who will not do their work by
any common system, and those who will not give systematically
through the budget are excused from all financial responsibility, if
no supplemental method is used for reaching them and inducing
them to do their duty. (2) Very few Christian men and women will
subscribe at the beginning of the year the maximum of their ability
and duty. (3) Increased prosperity or unanticipated income from
one source or another is likely to be enjoyed by some members of
every church during the year, and this additional income increases
the financial obligations of those who enjoy it. (4) TTie Christian
life of many people is helped by thank-offerings, and every Christian
should be given the opportunity by his church of thus expressing
his grateful love to God and expanding his own religious nature.
(5) Emergencies arise in the care of the church property or church
poor and in our mission enterprises. No man can anticipate these,
and yet such emergencies create most solemn obligations. The wis-
dom of this position has been recognized by the state secretaries
vho have had large experience and observation concerning church
and denominational finances, and they have unanimously offered
their opinion to the denomination in resolutions which embody sug-
gestions similar to the above.
"We would, therefore, recommend the church budget but with
three conditions: (1) That, in putting it into operation, a most
thorough canvass of the church be made with the endeavor to get
every member of the church enlisted, and that this canvass be re-
peated annually; (2) that in making up the budget the unique and
unequalled necessities of isrissions be taken into consideration and
a due proportion of the budget be requested of every member for
this greatest of all Christian enterprises; (3) that the pastor be
left free and unembarrassed to ask for special offerings and thank
offerings at such times only as either local or general denominational
enterprises imperatively require. In this way the Budget System
can be made a useful method in any church, but otherwise it may
stand in the way of full Christian development and the best care of
a great Christian enterprise like Missions at times when it is im-
periled.
"A word of admonition is offered to pastors whose churches have
adopted the Budget System, namely, keep up the habit of preaching
missionary sermons and provide missionary addresses for your peo-
ple. Education must not be neglected. If the Budget System causes
the pastor to dispense with missions in the pulpit, the mission spirit
will gradually die out of his church. The older people need to have
the fires of missionary enthusiasm rekindled month by month, and
5
66 -Y. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
successive companies of young people must be instructed in this im-
portant phase of Christian service, need and opportunity."
We need to get our churches so developed into the sense of steward-
ship and the habit of regular giving that the regular offerings of our
people will automatically care for all the regular work of the Con-
vention. Besides the regular offerings for regular objects of the
Convention, we should have at least one heavy drive every year for
a special object-and two would be better than one. The special
drives keep the budget churches from getting into hard grooves; they
pull people up to their maximum efforts; they develop concert of
action throughout the whole State; new objects inevitable in the
growth of our work are thus taken care of; repeated a few times,
they become regular objects of the Convention if it is necessary to
make them so.
We have two classes of churches: budget churches and non-budget
churches. Both of these must have a calendar for the regular ob-
jects of the Convention. In the budget churches it is a calendar of
emphasis for each object; in the non-budget churches it is a sched-
ule of appeals for the different objects.
One object at a time before our people and all the field forces of
all the agencies of our Convention pressing each object at its time,
should be an essential part of our plan for each year.
4. Make Our Board Smaller and More Effective. Our Board of
Missions now has 135 members — 70 Convention members and 65
Association members. We have found out by experience that this is
entirely too large. If they all attended it would be a small session
of the Convention itself. But only a few attend the board meetings
and the attendance is largely confined among those members living
near the domicile of the board. This tends to localize the repre-
sentation of our Baptist State Convention in the administration of
our mission work.
This year the board appointed committees or commissions on the
following matters: Executive Committee. Evangelism, Sunday
Schools, B. Y. P. U., Country Work. City Work, Colportage, Negro
Work. Mobile Schools for Pastors and Workers, Work with Soldiers.
Student Work, Church Buildings. Factory Work, Summer Assemblies.
But the members of these various committees were so scattered over
the State that there has been no meeting of most of them and no
full meeting of any of them, as there was no arrangement to pay
the traveling expenses of the members.
It is our conviction that an improvement of this embarrassing
situation could be made by the appointment by the Convention of
only 21 members of the Board of Missions, so scattered over our
territory as to represent all sections of the State; that the Conven-
tion authorize the board to pay the expenses of these 21 Convention
members of the Board at regular and emergency meetings of the
board, and that the Convention ask the associations to pay the ex-
MINUTES OF SESSION 1918 67
penses of their members of the Board; that the committees of the
board may be selected by the board among any members of the Bap-
tist State Convention, with a view to convenient meeting places,
provided a Convention member of the board is chairman of the
committee.
5. Begin Work With Our Negro Baptists.
The committee to which was referred the matter of our work
among the negroes begs to report that the consideration which they
have given to this matter has led them to the feeling that we are
doing entirely too little along this line. The Home Mission Board
of the Southern Baptist Convention is doing some very commendable
work of this kind, but our own State Board is doing practically
nothing. Some years ago our State Board co-operated with the
Home Mission Board and the American Baptist Home Mission
Society and the colored Baptists in holding what were called New
Era Institutes in several sections of the State, which we are in-
formed accomplished considerable good. There has never been a
time in our history when an effort put forth by our white Baptists
to help the negro Baptists in their work would have been more
opportune than it would be now. There is a large need for more
and better work among the negroes, and the conditions which will
follow the close of the war will make this endeavor more highly im-
portant in every aspect than at any preceding time. We believe that
a spirit of Christian interest and helpfulness manifested through a
wise and discreet worker would yield most gratifying results, and
we recommend that the board shall appropriate a sum for use from
month to month during the next calendar year in paying a portion of
the salary of a well trained and consecrated colored preacher and
teacher who could give a portion of his time to teaching in the Theo-
logical Department in Shaw University and the remaining portion
to work among the negro Baptist churches throughout the State;
such worker to be chosen by, report to, and be under the joint control
of our State Mission Board and the colored board contributing to
his salary. We understand that such an arrangement is feasible,
that the services of such a man can be had at a reasonable salary,
that the need for him to assist in the Theological Department at
Shaw University is urgent, and that his field work would be grate-
fully received and be fruitful in a large way for the denominational
good. Respectfully submitted,
November, 1918. R. N. Stmms, Chairman.
6, Piit More Business Metlwd Into Our Mission Work. It would
be well to make the Treasurer of the Baptist State Convention also
Office Secretary of the board and furnish him a bookkeeper. By
these means we can open an account with each Baptist church in
North Carolina and with other parties where desirable. We can
send a receipt to the remitter of each contribution to the work of
6& -V. C. BAPTIST STATE COyVEXTWX
our Convention and publish total receipts of each object each week
in the Biblical Recorder. This -will also open the way for us to pub-
lish the Treasurer's report as part of the statistics of the Convention
if we should deem it advisable to do so.
This arrangement will also enable us to give more careful and
detailed attention to the matter of annuities and bequests.
7. See 2\orth Carolina Mission Field as a ^Vholc. The work of
your Board of Missions is now being administered in such a way
that we cannot treat our State as a whole in planning its work.
Instead of one field, we are supplying about forty different fields;
for most of our resources are consumed in mission v/ork within
about forty of our more active associations.
We need to make a careful Baptist map of North Carolina by
counties and plan our State Mission work each year more in the
light of the facts of the life of our whole State. It is acutely neces-
sary for us to get into shape to concentrate more of our force on the
destitute sections and the strategic points in our State.
If the Convention will set your board free in this matter to spend
at least $65,000 this year to the best advantage of our State as a
whole, we shall feel under obligations to appropriate it about as
follows: $30,000 for mission work within the associations, $12,500
for mission work in the State at large, $2,000 for Colportage, $10,000
for Church Building. $3,000 for Volunteer Enlistment and Mobile
Schools, $7,500 for Administration.
8. Set a Worthy Mark. If v.'e come up in North Carolina to what
the Southern Baptist Convention is asking us to do for Home and
Foreign Missions our figures for next year will be. Foreign Missions
$100,000, Home Missions $75,000, State Missions $75,000, total
$250,000.
A Mission Drive this spring for a quarter of million dollars should
be put on. This undertaking will put our Baptist work into tune
with the big things of our time. This is our ideal; let us strike
for it.
Our minimum figures must not fall below the following: Foreign
Missions $90,000. Home Missions $65,000, State Missions $65,000,
total $22'0,000. With less than this our work will suffer painfully.
We must not fall below it.
But better than this, let us strike for a quarter of a million for
missions this year. We can raise it. if we love Christ one-half as
strongly as we have hated the Kaiser. Now is the time to get our
Lord's work out from under a chronic debt. A heavy stroke of this
kind now will lift it to the cash basis.
Awaiting Instmctions. Your Board of Missions asks the Conven-
tion to instruct it as to what it shall undertake to do this year about
these needs. The Lord is wonderfully opening the way for us to
move onward, upward, outward.

APPENDIX B
REPORT OF THE BOARD OF EDUCATIOiN
In presenting their annual report, your board beg to felicitate you
on the happy conditions under which we meet. "We are emerging
into health from a pestilence that walked in darkness and wasted
at noonday, and from the gory horror of a world war into a condition
wherein we trust righteousness and peace have met together. Abun-
dant harvests have enriched our fields and showers of grace have en-
livened our churches. Pestilence and war have measurably sobered
and broadened us as a people, so that amid the deepening shadows
we sought the face of God in contrition and prayer, and in the day
of triumph we filled His courts with praise. And withal, in spite of
unprecedented demands upon the beneficence of our people, they
have not been unmindful of the claims of our^own regular objects
and have contributed generously to their support. All glory to God
for His distinguishing mercies.
In launching the Million Dollar Campaign last January, the Board
of Education decided that its regular work should continue uninter-
ruptedly; at the same time, while contemplating that its Correspond-
ing Secretary should devote the most of his time to the larger cam-
paign, they made no special provision for prosecuting the regular
work. So this work during the year has been incidental, and what
has been accomplished in that line has been due mainly to previous
organization rather than to special efforts of the secretary. In
spite of this neglect and the pressure occasioned by the larger cam-
paign, the contributions to the regular work up to the 1st of October
were more than 40 per cent above those at the corresponding date of
the previous year; the loss in contributions during October and
November was over $3,000, due partly, no doubt, to the closing of
nearly all of our churches for so long, and partly to the absorption
of most of the amounts usually designated to local schools (amount-
ing to $2,100) into the million-dollar fund. Hence, the small debt
which we must report this year, while somewhat annoying, is in no
way discouraging. On the other hand, we have reason to be grateful
that it is no larger.
The collections for the year amounted to $9,789.38, and the dis-
bursements to $10,164.30. Taking into account the small balance
from last year, this leaves a debt of $153.60.
MINUTES OF SESSION WIS 76
STATISTICS FOR 1917-18.
Our fourteen high schools employed during the year 97 teachers,
and enrolled 1,858 students. The three colleges employed 81 teach-
ers and enrolled 907 students. For details, see Table of School Sta-
tistics, page 177.
This statement shows a net loss of 150 students in the colleges,
which was accounted for in part, no doubt, by the unusual conditions
during the past year.
On November 11th the Yancey Collegiate Institute suffered the
loss by fire of its main building, valued at $9,000. This loss was
all the more serious at this time because of the excessively high cost
of rebuilding, which must be done at once.
Through the generosity of Brethren George and Charlie Wall, the
debt of the Liberty-Piedmont Institute, located at Wallburg, has been
canceled and a deed in fee simple for the splendid plant, which is
valued at $25,000, has been turned over to the Board of Education.
NEEDS OF THESE INSTITUTIONS
In the high schools the demand is constantly growing for adequate
laboratory equipment, stronger teaching forces, and better dormitory
accommodations. "We must recognize the patent fact that with the
rapid improvement in the comforts and conveniences of so many of
our homes, it will be impossible to hold our young men and women
in schools which cannot, at least to a reasonable extent, duplicate
those accommodations.
And the disparity betw^een the salaries of our teachers and those
offered by the institutions maintained by the State is steadily in-
creasing every few years; so that what ought to be generous and
mutually helpful rivalry between these two sets of institutions
threatens to become ruinous competition. This fact does not argue
that the State should pay less, but that we must pay more.
EDUCATION DAY
It is earnestly hoped that our pastors and Sunday School workers
will take seriously to heart the annual observance of Education Day
in our Sunday Schools on the fourth Sunday in June. This is the
day which the Educational Commission of the Southern Baptist Con-
vention, its Sunday School Board, and the Convention itself, have
asked our churches to make a permanent day in their annual calen-
dars, and whose observance in some practical way they are striving
to promote. They are doing this because it is their deep conviction
that no other policy or agency of the Convention promises larger
results for the Kingdom of God in the no distant future. Dr. Gambrel
says: "The Teacher-Training Course instituted by the Sunday School
Board is the most important enterprise launched by Southern Bap-
tists in many years." But whence are the teachers for the futifre
76 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
to be secured if not from our schools? And what better means have
we of turning our people for their educational groundwork to our
own schools than some sort of plan that will put and keep these
schools on the minds and hearts of our young people? While our
schools and colleges in no sense are factories for the manufacture of
preachers and lay-workers, they are in a very z"eal sense the canton-
ments in which the recruits for the King's army are drilled. This,
and not the raising of money, is the main purpose of Education Day;
the only money asked for is the regular collection of the Sunday
Schools on that day. All necessary literature is furnished free of
cost.
In the high schools are 55 young men preparing for the ministry.
62 in Wake Forest, of whom 45 are on our board, and 26 in the Semi-
nary, of whom 25 are receiving aid; six young women in our two
colleges last year were preparing for service on the mission field.
A WORTHY EDUCATIONAL PROCinAJI FOR SOUTIIKK.X BAPTISTS
At the session of the Southern Baptist Convention in 1918, the
Educational Comission recommended, and the Convention resolved,
that "we Southern Baptists undertake a five-year program for the
raising of $15,000,000 for our Baptist educational institutions in the
South, to be distributed among our colleges and high schools, and
our theological seminaries and training schools at Louisville and
Fort Worth."
At a special session of the commission in Atlanta, September 11th.
the committee appointed to confer with the officials of the Woman's
Missionary Union reported that a conference had been held with the
president of that organization, at which a most satisfactory pro-
gram was agreed on. At this same session the committee appointed
to recommend an equitable distribution of the $15,000,000 recom-
mended that $3,000,000 of the proposed $15,000,000 be given to those
objects which have a South-wide appeal, and that the Woman's Mis-
sionary Union be requested to raise one-half of this sum, or $1,500,000.
The committee also recommended that the Baptist Bible Institute
recently established in New Orleans be added to the list of bene-
ciaries mentioned above.
At this same session of the Commission it was resolved that "the
commission is thoroughly committed to the general policy that junior
colleges and preparatory schools are of vital importance to the suc-
cess of our denomination as a Kingdom force, and we express the
opinion that they should share adequately in the distribution of
funds to be raised in our general campaign."
By way of preparation for this great movement, the commission
recommended that steps be taken to liquidate in all the states all
existing debts against the schools and colleges.
It may interest and stimulate us to remember that in such an
enterprise we are but trying to- keep step with other great religious
MIM'TEti OF SEiHSlOK WIS 77
bodies. Our own Baptist brethren of the North are now prosecuting a
campaign for six million dollars for their educational institutions
outside of the amounts given to Chicago University, and have already
raised four million. The Methodists of the South are endeavoring to
raise for their institutions, in a campaign beginning the coming
May, $32,000,000 in the South and $20,000,000 more in the North.
And the Presbyterians of the South are at work on a $3,000,000
program.
OUR MIIXION-DOLLAB CAMPAIGN
In obedience to instructions by this Convention at its last ses-
sion, your Board of Education promptly set about forming plans
for launching and conducting a campaign to raise one million dollars
for our Baptist schools and colleges in North Carolina, to be divided
among our institutions as follows:
$300,000 for Wake Forest;
$300,000 for Meredith;
$150,000 for Chowan;
$250,000 to be invested for the benefit of our high schools.
It may be well to state here that the Board has adopted the policy
that when necessary to invest money for permanent improvements in
any of our hi^h schools, the trustees of the institutions concerned
shall give the Board a mortgage on the property for the amount
loaned it, to be closed only if and when such schools shall cease to
function as Baptist schools.
Tbe first act of the Board was the appointment of a Central Cam-
paign Committee, consisting of T. W. O'Kelly, W. N. Jones, Carey J.
Hunter, Weston Bruner, R. N. Simms, Livingston Johnson, W. N.
Johnson, and C. E. Brewer, w^ith the power to take all necessary
steps for the successful prosecution of the campaign. This commit-
tee selected Bro. C. J. Thompson as Financial Secretary for the cam-
paign, and R. T. Vann as General Manager and Treasurer. Brother
Thompson served with wisdom and energy until June, when, on
account of weakening health and other considerations, he resigned
to accept service in another state. The committee then laid hands
on W. R. Cullom for this work; and in view of its tremendous
significance to our denomination, he expressed his willingness to
undertake it. From the same consideration the Wake Forest
Board of Trustees granted him leave of absence for two years, that
he might devote his whole time to the great task. Meanwhile, it
had become apparent that the Financial Secretary ought to be the
actual director of the campaign, so that Dr. Cullom was elected
manager and R. T. Vann retained as treasurer, with the under-
standing that he should co-operate with Dr. Cullom as far as prac-
ticable in connection with his regular work for your board. With
your permission. Dr. Cullom will now submit his report.
78 .Y. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
REPORT ON MILLION-DOLLAR CAMPAIGN
(June 1, 1918, to Jan. 15, 1919)
By \V. R. Cui.xx)m, General Manager
As general manager of the Million I>oIlar Campaign for our Bap-
tist schools in North Carolina, I have been asked to write the story
of this movement since June 1st, when I became General Manager.
Its origin, initial organization and progress up to that time, has
been written by Dr. Vann, the Secretary of the Board of Education
and the Secretary and Treasurer of this Campaign. The barest out-
line only of this story will be attempted here. The fuller story of
it will be known only when the records of Heaven are unfolded and
made manifest.
Swapping horses amid stream is said to be a bad policy. Such
a transaction is not calculated to l>e very pleasant for the horses:
nor would it presumably be very safe for the owners of the horses.
The Million Dollar Campaign, however, has broken all precedents,
rules, maxiums, and traditions, and has made its way over moun-
tains of difficulties, through valleys of trial, and in the midst of
handicaps on all sides and from all sorts of sources such as have
not been seen before in the Heavens above, nor in the earth beneath,
neither in the waters that are under the earth. To specify fully
would be out of the question.
On May 11, 1918, Dr. Vann told me in an incidental way that
Brother C. J. Thompson would give up his connection with the cam-
paign the last of May. Several men were suggested as his succes-
sor. They were all good men, and any one of them would have filled
the place most worthily. The only specific suggestion that I made
was that the committee should employ one of the strongest laymen
of the State for this important task. On May 19th, Dr. Vann wrote
me at Wake Forest that I was the unanimous choice of the com-
mittee to carry on the great work that Brother Thompson was laying
down. Brother Thompson himself made a special visit to Wake
Forest to talk the matter over with me. The announcement of the
committee's wish came to me as a summons from a clear sky, but it
seemed to me on the spot to be the voice of God; nor have I had
cause to doubt for one moment since that this first impression was
correct.
On June 1st, your humble servant sat in the office at campaign
headquarters (recently vacated by Brother C. J. Thompson). He
was alone, and the loneliness was intense. He raised several ques-
tions with himself. Among them was this: "What am I here for?"
After thinking over that question for a little, he took his pencil and
began to write. Here is what was written:
KOl'R Ants OF THE CAAtP.VlGN:
As I enter this morning upon the campaign for our schools at the
request of the Central Committee, there are in my mind four things
which I should like to see brought to pass through it.
MINUTES OF SESSION 1918 79
1. Raise the niillion dollars and so provide for our schools a physi-
cal basis for meeting the unprecedented opportunities that are com-
ing before them.
2. Place our schools on the hearts of our people in such a way
that the product of these schools M'ill be in deed and in truth the
children of our prayers, of our hopes, of our heart's best love.
3. Cultivate the soil in such a way as to leave the field richer for
future harvests than it is at present.
4. Give such an interpretation of the principles and ideals of Jesus
as to make them clear, vital and regnant in the hearts of just as
many people as possible.
A second question was, "How can these aims be realized?" Here
George Boone's double-header came to mind, viz: HAVE FAITH
and BE FAITHFUL. The feeling was strong that "Except the Lord
build the house, they labor in vain that build it." In response to
this feeling a Prayer League was organized at once. This has grown
until it has in it a goodly number of the best people in the land,
and many others have belonged to it in fact whose names are not
recorded in the central office. In seeking to carry out the second
part of the motto in question, seven and a half months of hard work
has been done; and a host of good men and women along with many
dear children have had a noble part in doing this work.
SE\-EBAL CONFERENCES
After floundering around a while, trying to get his bearings, it
became apparent to the General Manager that a few conferences
would be necessary in order to touch hands and hearts with at least
a few people over the State. Various things kept us from holding
these conferences until September. The first one was held at
Hickory, September 5th and 6th, and the second at Wilson, Septem-
ber 12th and 13th. These conferences helped greatly toward accom-
plishing the ends for which they were designed. At the close of
the Wilson Conference, the conviction was strong that we should
put on an intensive campaign at once, and seek to secure the mil-
lion dollars mainly in Government securities by the time our Con-
vention should meet, December 3d to 6th. Our Central Committee
met in Raleigh on the same afternoon that the Wilson Conference
adjourned. After a thorough discussion, the following action was
taken:
"Campaign Committee met in Recorder oflBce September 13th.
President O'Kelly, Brewer. Hunter, .Johnson. Bruner, Vann, and Cul-
lom, also Gilbert T. Stephenson by invitation and W. M. Gilmore.
Brother Stephenson presented the plan for raising our million dol-
lars by appealing for Liberty Bonds and W. S. S. in an intensive
campaign to be closed by the meeting of the Convention. On mo-
tion of Dr. Bruner the committee voted to press the campaign by
appealing for Liberty Bonds and W. S. S.
"On motion of C. J. Hunter, it was voted that we attempt to com-
plete the campaign not later than December 31, 1918. On motion
of Dr. Bruner the matter of perfecting plans for such campaign was
80 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
referred to the Advisory Committee heretofore appointed, C. E.
Brewer, W. N. Johnson, L. Johnson, Cullom. and Vann. Voted that
subscriptions in Bonds and W. S. S. be accepted at face value."
Immediately following this action, arrangements were made to
hold a conference in Raleigh. September 24th and 2.5th. The Raleigh
Conference did much for our campaign -along three lines:
1. It clarified the spirit and purpose of the campaign in the minds
of those in attendance.
2. It quickened and broadened the interest in our task.
3. It helped us greatly in formulating and marking out a definite
plan of organization for the campaign.
The plan of organization agreed on was very simple. The cen-
tral office, with the general executive officers for the whole State,
was to be located in Raleigh. In each association there was to be
an associational manager. In each church in a given association,
there was to be a church manager and as many canvassers as
might seem wise in each church. It was agreed, furthermore, that
the month of October should be given to a campaign of educntion.
and that the month of November was to be the time for reaping
the harvest. The Campaign of Education was to proceed along
three lines:
1. A conference on the work of the campaign was to be held in
each association in the State.
2. An effort was to be put forth to have a public discussion of
the campaign in each church in the State.
3. There was to be a state-wide distribution of literature explain-
ing and setting forth the claims of the campaign.
The conferences were held in many of the associations; associa-
tional organization was perfected in most cases; the printing presses
began to work day and night on literature, and everything was in
readiness to proclaim the beginning of one of the most important
movements ever inaugurated by the Baptists of North Carolina.
And then, almost on the very stroke of the clock, when we were
ready to begin, practically every church in the State was ordered
by the health authorities to close its doors indefinitely.
IXFLUENZ.V
The story of what followed is too well known to call for comment
here. Nothing comparable to it has ever been seen amongst us.
It was enough to paralyze completely any effort that was not backed
by Omnipotence. Be it said to the everlasting credit of the North
Carolina Baptist leaders that out of the hundreds of letters that
came to the central office during these trying days, the number
that even hinted at anything like pessimism was negligible. Most
of our people seemed to feel that God was trying our faith, and
that we must not be found wanting in the day of trial. Our helpers
seemed to have caught of the spirit of the motto suggested above:
MINUTES OF SESSION WIS 81
they had faith and were faithful. Nor was either their faith or
their faithfulness unrewarded. The manifestation of God's pres-
ence, special help, unfailing guidance and leadership in the cam-
paign have been so clearly and beautifully manifest that to doubt
were almost blasphemous. Numerous incidents of a most convinc-
ing character could be cited but space forbids.
With very few exceptions, wherever the campaign has been put
on w^itli any sort of faithfulness and enthusiasm, the response has
been all that we could expect, and even more. A good man in East-
ern North Carolina told the General Manager early in tlio summer
that if he could bring the Baptists of North Carolina to make up
their minds to do this thing, it was done already. It really looks
as if our people have made up their minds thoroughly to do it.
From all that has been said here, it is clearly evident that our
campaign has been a walk by faith and not by sight. We have been
compelled to feel our way along one day at a time; but in the end
the triumph of God's grace and help will be the clearer and more
glorioits on this account. If our schools, in the use of this million
dollars, do not seek to plant the principles of Jesus moro firmly in
the hearts of their pupils than ever before, the curse of Heaven will
surely come upon them to such an extent that their candle-stick
will be removed.
SPECIAL MENTION — CHURCHES
Very early in his work the General Manager began to cherish the
hope that some half dozen churches might be found in the State that
would raise $20,000 or more each for the campaign; twenty churches
and individuals that would give $10,000 or more each; and at least
a half a hundred churches and individuals that would give $.5,000
or more each. Of course it was hoped that literally hundreds of
churches and individuals would give from $1,000 to $4,00!» each, and
that ALL THE REST, would give according to their light and ability.
At the present writing it is altogether impossible to make any-
thing like an accurate estimate of the extent to which our hone has
been approximated. The Convention wall probably not be surprised
to learn that we have met many surprises in the matter of the
amount undertaken by different churches. Some have gone beyond
what we had expected of them and some have done otherwise.
Enough has been learned, however, to know that at least five
churches have set their goal at $20,000 or more. These churches
are: Raleigh, First Church; First Church Winston-Salem; First
Church, Asheville; tlje churches at Scotland Neck and Lumberton.
We sincerely hope that these churches may realize fully the task
they have set before them, and that one or two other churches may
see their way to take their places in this column. In trying to find
out which churches have undertaken $10,000 or more, we have heard
so far only of Wake Forest, Wilson, First Church, Blackwell Me-
morial, Elizabeth City, Raleigh Tabernacle, Greensboro, First
6
82 .V. C. BAPTI8T STATE CONVENTION
Church, and Wilmington, First Church. No doubt many others will
take their places in this column as the campaign goes on. A goodly
number of our town, village and country churches have set their
goal at $5,000 or more, and are working most heroically and success-
fully towards its realization. A large number of other churches
have set their goal at smaller amounts, but in many cases they are
showing a greater spirit of heroism and sacrifice than some that
give more.
Quite a good many churches have been compelled by peculiar and
most trying circumstances to defer their canvass for the work of
this campaign. Let all such know that it is not yet too late to fall
in line, and it is hoped that they may be able to take the matter
up at once and that they may do the thing that is worthy of them.
SPECIAL MENTION — SCHOOLS
The offerings by the schools themselves have been surprisingly
large and beautiful. Meredith, Mars Hill, Round Hill, Sylva; Fruit-
land, Boiling Springs and Buie's Creek have been heard from so far.
Others are ready to put on the canvass at once, and will be heard
from a little later.
It will probably be in place to make mention here also of the
special efforts that are being put forth by the Alumnae of ?*Ieredith
and of the Alumni of Wake Forest to endow a special chair in their
respective institutions. This is a most praiseworthy purpose on
their part, and those in charge of this million dollar campaign feel
disposed to do all in their power to encourage and help them.
The collections in these schools show one thing most conclusively,
viz., that whatever may be the thought of others, these schools them-
selves believe most profoundly in their own God-appointed mission.
SPECIAL MENTION — INDIVIDUALS
The author of this report is loath to make special mention of any
person or persons in this connection. Many have labored most
beautifully and helpfully, and their names and their deeds are
written deeply in the hearts of those who stand at the headquarters
of this movement. In this connection it is nothing but simple justice
to say that in bringing us to undertake a short, intensive campaign,
rather than a campaign drawn out over several years, Gilbert T.
Stephenson, of Winston-Salem, was the central figure. His
work also in helping to perfect our organization and in conducting
the campaign among the churches has been as gerenous and as help-
ful as it was unselfish and beautiful.
At the Wilson Conference, September 6th, Secretary Walter N.
.Tohnson said he was willing that even State Missions should be
side-tracked for the time being to bring to pass the great thing that
MINUTES OF SESSION WIS 83
we were setting before us. His great personality and everything
connected with his office from that day to this, have been at the
command of our campaign.
Our Home IVIission Board in Atlanta, very generously loaned to
our work J. C. Owen from October 1st to this date. Dr. Owen
has served as assistant manager in a most helpful way. His work
has been mainly in the western part of the State. To our Home
Mission Board, and to Dr. Owen, our committee feel that they owe a
debt of gratitude, which will grow bigger as the deeper significence
of our campaign shall become more apparent.
In beautiful cooperation with, and under the skillful management
of Walter M. Gilmore, our publicity director, the Biblical Re-
corder, Charity and Children, the great dailies and most of the week-
lies of the State, have lent themselves in a most helpful way toward
the promotion of the interests of our campaign. In this action,
these papers have shown that they are ready to join hands with and
help on a movement whose fundamental purpose is the moulding
of the highest type of manhood and womanhood. For this service,
we are deeply grateful, and shall be glad to join with these papers
in the future to help them in every possible way to achieve the
highest and holiest ends of their existence.
Several individuals among our associational managers and other
special helpers deserve to be singled out and placed before this Con-
vention as people whose very names will forever stand out in the
memory of those at the head quarters of our movement as the very
synonym of faithfulness and of unselfish devotion to the work of
our Lord's Kingdom. One can readily see, however, how that such
mention would hardly be in place here. When we think, moreover,
of those who have gone to and fro with us and for us, as special
interpreters and advocates of our work, the denomination should
forever hold them in grateful remembrance. The pastor of the Wake
Forest Church, the president and members of the faculty at Wake
Forest, a large number of our pastors and laymen, not to speak of
those in the Recorder building and in the city of Raleigh, have ren-
dered a service at this point whose value cannot be estimated.
Within the respective associations where the campaign has been
put on, the call for special help on the part of the associational
manager has met a response which has meant everything to our
campaign. Nor should we forget to mention with the deepest grati-
tude, the many noble women who have labored so beautifully with
us in the Lord.
The beautiful sacrifice and earnest deeds of all these have been a
labor of love and such sacrifices and such deeds call for a love and
recognition in return which should be cumulative with the passing
years.
Many others might well be brought in here for special mention
Their name is legion; their deeds are golden; they themselves are
84 A-. C. BAPTIHT STATE CONVENTION
far better than their weight in gold. One name further, however,
shall be mentioned in closing this part of our report. That is the
name of Thos. W. Bickett. Governor Bickett's help with voice and
pen has done much to show many of our people that the work of this
campaign was worthy of their best efforts. We wish to assure Gov-
ernor Bickett, and the great State of North Carolina which he so
worthily represents, that the schools on whose behalf he has so
kindly helped us will find even greater pleasure in the future in
serving our commonwealth because of this attitude and these kindly
deeds of its chief executive.
SPECIAL GIVEUS
When we come to single out special givers, we are greatly em-
barrassed. Many of the greatest sacrifices have been made by those
whose contributions can be counted in dimes rather than in dollars
At the same time, those of us who cannot give so largely as others
in actual amount, rejoice greatly that there are those amongst us
who can give in thousands of dollars to this great cause, and we re-
joice still more that they find it in their hearts to do so. In the
Eastern Association, one good family is proposing at the request
of the general manager, to give $25,000, to be combined with $25,000
to be raised by the association, and the whole sum to be used for
the endowment of the School of the Bible in Wake Forest College
as a memorial to their honored father, the lamented John T.
Albritton. A good man in the Sandy Run Association is proposing
to place $5,000 at Wake Forest and $5,000 at Meredith to establish a
permanent fund in each of these schools, the income from which
shall be used to support a young man and a young woman, re-
spectively, from Rutherford County in these two colleges. One good
man in the Chowan Association is putting $10,000 into the work of
this campaign. Several brethren in the Central Association, and one
good man and his wife in the Pilot Mountain Association, are put
ting $5,000, respectively, into this work. A still larger number are
establishing one or more scholarships in one of these schools. Among
these may be mentioned a good man in Person County, who is estab-
lishing two scholarships at $2,000 each — one at Wake Forest and ^he
other at Meredith. A good brother and his wife of the Asheboro
Street Church, Greensboro, are giving $2,000 to establish a scholar-
ship at Meredith. The same is true of another good man and his
wife of the Tabernacle Church, Raleigh, who are giving $2,000 to
establish a scholarship at Meredith. Messrs. C. M. and G. W. Wall,
of Wallburg, have paid off the indebtedness on the Wallburg School,
and are turning over to the denomination unencumbered a property
conservatively estimated at $35,000.
Many others have given largely and sacrificially. As said before,
no doubt many of the smaller gifts represent the greater sacrifice.
The earth is richer and heaven will be sweeter because of the
beauty and fragrance of such sacrifice.
MINUTES OF SESSION 1918 85
OUB LATEST MOVE
In the early days of Ms work, the General Manager thought he
saw the Importance of getting the children of our Sunday schools to
line up with the work of this campaign. Three purposes were
thought of in this connection:
1. Of course, some financial help for our campaign was expected.
This, however, was an entirely minor consideration.
2. It was thought that the children who might he brought to throw
themselves into the work of this great task would feel forever after-
wards that they were a part of the work of God's Kingdom.
3. It was thought that scores and hundreds of these children, who
might line up with us in this work, would at once form the purpose
in their hearts to attend these schools some day, and through the
influence of these schools in their lives would become potent and
important factors in the work of the Kingdom. As in the case of
just about everything undertaken in connection with the work of
this campaign, this phase of its work had to meet many hindrances
and difficulties before it could get started. Through the indispen-
sable help of Misses Briggs and Carroll, however, "The Junior Re-
SEG\-E Force of the Million Dollar Campaign" was launched in the
month of December. The angle of approach is through the Sunday-
school, and equipment for this work has been mailed to the Baptists
Sunday school Superintendents of the State. If the future of our
boys and girls is important, then the aims and purposes of this cam-
paign with and for the children are equally important. It is too
soon yet to know how this phase of our work is being received by
our people. It is our sincere hope that the discussions of this mat-
ter here in the Convention may do much to bring those in attendance
of the Convention, to see and appreciate the deeper significance of
this phase of our task. It is hoped, also, that those who may come
to see the meaning of this work here may become earnest heralds
for it all over the State on their return home.
FUTURE OF THE CAMPAIGN
The last sentence above suggests at once that we do not consider
our campaign completed. How could it be in the light of what has
been hinted at in this report? What then shall we say as to the
future? One or two significant things must be borne in mind when
we are feeling for the answer to the question of our future. One
fact is that the soil among the Baptists of North Carolina has been
pretty well plowed up on behalf of this campaign. North Carolina
Baptists have been brought to think about the place of their schools
in their work as they have never done before. To let up in our
work just now, would be little short of tragic. Another fact which
must be kept in mind is that our regular mission work must not be
side-tracked longer. In view of these two considerations, we would
recommend :
86 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
1. That the Convention request those conducting this campaign
throughout the State, to do what they can in the way of reaping
where they have sown during the next thirty days.
2. That after the date specified the officers of the campaign give
their attention to matters that are more or less general, and not
press the intensive feature of the campaign during the months when
the One Mission Drive is on.
3. It is understood that a spirit of reciprocity shall prevail among
the oflScers of this movement toward the regular work of our Mis-
sion boards.
In closing this report, we would once more make grateful acknowl-
edgment of the many and unmistakable tokens of God's favor and
help in the midst of what otherwise would have proven to be in-
superable difficulties. We would also express the deep and un-
shakable conviction that He who hath begun a good work in us and
amongst us will finish the same to the glory of His own great name,
and to the perpetual blessing of all those who wait upon Him and
who serve while they wait.

APPENDIX C
REPORT OF SOCIAL SERVICE COMMITTEE
Christianity has in these last years begun to recognize its duty to
society. While the paramount duty of the churches has always been,
and is now, that of giving the gospel to the world, they cannot do
that supreme work effectively if they neglect their duty along the
lines of social service.
In the following report is considered the work that is being done
by the State for the social betterment of its people, a work In which
all Christians should feel a vital interest. Then comes consideration
of Prohibition, for which our people have always stood, and in whose
progress they rejoice. The report of the Ministers' Relief Board
follows. This is strictly denominational, and should appeal to all
our churches. The last item in this report is the informing facts and
figures in regard to our Orphanage at Thomasville.
THE CHURCH AND SOCIAL WORK
The war and its effects present to the Christian churches questions
of profound interest and importance. The upheavals of~war are
about to subside into conditions of peace that present new standards.
By universal agreement, organized Christianity should bear in-
creased responsibilities. Jesus is still the Light of the World, but,
as never before, the churches must concern themselves with carrying
the light into all the recesses of modem life. Everywhere men are
saying that the challenge to the church differs in character and
magnitude from other times. In character, the challenge to the
church is to offer a more satisfying ministration to all human needs.
In magnitude, the challenge is to carry this ministration to every
individual life and to more fully inject the Christian spirit into
government, industry, and every other branch of organizaed society.
No one will deny that love is the condition, service the expression,
and the enlargement of the individual life the aim of Christ's mis-
sion. Whenever and wherever an indictment is brought against the
churches it is upon the ground of a real or alleged failure to properly
and fully interpret this mission. The indictment is being brought
more insistently and more generally today than ever before.
Over and over it has been said from platform and in print that
the soldiers will never again be interested in the churches, and that
the masses will be more than ever aloof. The implication is that
Christianity has outgrown the organized churches; and that man-
kind must look beyond them for an adequate interpretation and ap-
MINUTES OF SESSION IDIS 89
plication of Christianity to the needs of everyday life. If the
churches cannot meet and nullify this charge, they certainly cannot
hold or extend the moral and spiritual leadership of the people. The
world is about to begin reorganization upon a new basis. It is a
golden and fateful moment for Christians and organized Christianity.
Our Southern churches, still possessing an intimate and influential
relation to the masses, should seize the moment of increased responsi-
bility and opportunity for leadership in injecting the Christian
principle into every phase of life and organized society.
The first phase of this duty is to back up the attempt to organize
the world upon a new basis of love and permanent peace. The
President of the United States has declared that "The brotherhood of
mankind must no longer be a fair but empty phrase; it must be
given a structure of force and reality."
The Prime Minister of England has said, concerning the principles
of peace: "Are we to lapse back into the old national rivalries,
animosities and competitive armaments, or are we to initiate the
reign on earth of the Prince of Peace? It is the duty of liberalism
to use its influence to insure that it shall be a reign of peace."
These utterances, of the two leading statesmen of the world, are
a striking example of the persuasive force with which the spirit of
Christianity has been penetrating into all human relationships. Can
organized Christianity be less enthusiastic, less earnest, less insist-
ent, than political liberalism for a reign of peace and a destruction
of the military spirit everywhere? The impulse to peace and right-
eousness in the world is a Christian impulse; and organized Chris-
tians should not be justly charged with not keeping up with the
general Christian impulse.
Again, not only must Christians and churches in their organized
capacity insist that international relations be based upon peace,
justice and good will, but they must stand insistently for a domestic
fabric, whose warp and woof shall be determined by the principles
of justice and equality and the sacred right of every human being to
living conditions that will enable him to reach that degree of devel-
opment of which he is capable. We cannot force men to be good by
legislation, and should not seek to try, for that has been a failure;
but we can help them to be good by removing conditions which tend
to make it easy for them to be bad and hard to be good. This is not
a union of church and state. It is an insistence that the principles
of Christ should be manifested in a Christian commonwealth.
Mankind is reaching out with longing for better things, a longing
whose scope and purpose are not yet fully defined. Where should it
look with more confidence and hope for leadership than to the
Christian churches? ^
One by one the standards of paganism bequeathed from ancient
society have fallen before the never-ending insistence of the Christian
doctrine of the value and sacredness of the individual human being.
^
90 .V. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
It is nothing less than the continued triumph of this principle that
has stamped this war with the character of a war to end war itself.
Hence, we have seen during the war that spiritual exaltation
which accompanies only the willingness to sacrifice everything, even
life itself, in a supreme test of service.
The same principle of the sacredness and value of the Individual
human being will as inevitably lead men on to reconstruct the social
and economic fabric as it is now leading us on to reconstruct inter-
national relations. The church must lead or follow the movement.
If it leads it will save its organized life by having lost it in the
service of humanity. If it follows it need not expect to occupy more
than a subsidiary place in modern life.
Our churches are the most powerful and the most ready agents to
work for human betterment in North Carolina. They must co-
operate with every other agency whose purpose and tendency is bet-
terment. In every community the local churches should see that
w^hatever of ministry is lacking at any time should be supplied as
far as is in their power. Then they must stand for and work for
certain policies which modern thought has come to regard as the
minimum which should exist in a Christian state. All these cluster
about the inevitable and insistent demand for a recognition of the
dignity and sacredness and possibilities of the individual human
soul and a realignment of social relationships and contacts in the
light of that principle. Among these conditions are:
1. Easier economic conditions. This stands back of and involves
the integrity and safety of the home, the safety of women and chil-
dren, the eradication of vice, immorality and all anti-social condi-
tions. The man who labors must have better surroundings and a
more adequate distribution of the returns of labor. Want or the fear
of want should not forever stare a large part of our population in
the face.
2. Conservation of physical health, including public health and
sanitary measures, hospital facilities, public nurses, the eradication
of vice diseases, bad housing, and kindred evils.
3. A more perfect fulfillment of educational requirements, includ-
ing a more helpful contact of the schools with the problems of
living.
4. A better conservation of child life, which will comprehend a
wiping out of what is known as juvenile delinquency and neglect,
and shall rescue every child from a life of shame and neglect and
find means for moral and physical growth.
5. A more just distribution of work and play, Including a con-
demnation of all parasites, whether rich or poor, a systematic means
of amusements and recreation for our people, free from commercial-
ism, and so universal and appealing that vice-producing amusements
and vicious idleness will tend to disappear.
V
MINUTES OF SESSION WIS 91
6. Better care for the dependent and unfortunate classes, including
a more thorough support of the State institutions for the insane, the
feeble-minded, and kindred institutions, as well as such measures as
tend toward prevention.
7. An improvement of our way of dealing with prisoners and per-
sons charged with offenses. This involves a radical change in our
court procedure, one in which the emphasis shall be placed upon the
question of why the offense was committed, and a recognition of the
fact that it is due more often to ignorance and weakness than other-
•\^ise, and should be treated accordingly. The administration of
state and local prisons should be based upon a recognition of this
fact, for it is the key to preventing more offenses. We are not yet
looking our so-called problem of crime straight in the face.
No Christian and no church can stand for less than these broad
outlines for his community and state, and all should stand for more.
When John the Baptist sent to Jesus to ask if He were the real
Christ or whether another might be looked for, the messenger was
told to report to John the things that were being done for the people
and let that stand as the testimony to the presence of the real Master.
What is being done for mankind is still the test of the presence of
Jesus.
PROHIBITION
Prohibition sentiment is growing stronger in the State every year,
as it is throughout the whole country. The Prohibition Amendment
which is being voted on by the several states will certainly be rati-
fied, and national prohibi'.ion will follow.
The great need in North Carolina is law enforcement. We havf-
all the prohibition laws necessary to make North Carolina a dry
State in fact as well as in name, but we should have some additional
machinery to make the excellent laws we have effective. The Col-
lector of Internal Revenue for the Government stated in his report
some time ago that one-third of the illicit distilleries captured in the
United States were located in North Carolina. TTiis is very unen-
viable advertising that is being given for our State, and every citizen
should deplore it.
The Trustees of the Anti-Saloon League recommend the following
legislation as in their judgment necessary to meet the situation in
this State:
1. That the Prohibition Amendment to the Federal Constitution
be ratified.
2. That the State office of Prohibition Commissioner be established.
3. That an "Ouster Law" be enacted, so that we can get rid of
those officers whose duty it is to execute the law, but who do not
do it.
4. That the manufacture of wine and cider as beverages be pro-
hibited.
92 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
5. That our shipping laws be made so as to harmonize with the
National anti-shipping laws.
6. Tliat the sale as beverages of bitters, extracts, and other pro-
prietary medicines, commonly used instead of liquor, be prohibited.
REPORT OF THE MINISTERS' RELIEF BOARD
Men say no more beautiful things about any class of their fellows
than they utter when thinking of the aged minister. This report
cannot be made more interesting or helpful than by quoting the
words of two men who are deeply concerned about ministerial relief.
Dr. E. W. Sikes in his stirring address on this subject before the
Convention at Goldsboro began and ended with the striking words
which follow:
"The day after Lee signed the articles of surrender at Appomattox,
the troops marched down in front of the Federal columns and stacked
their guns. The Federal officer had ordered his men to 'carry arms'
as a mark of respect to the Confederates. "When the guns were
stacked, each color-bearer walked up and laid his folded colors upon
the arms and wept. Each brave Federal felt a thrill of sympathy,
for he knew how well each color-bearer loved the colors he had borne
aloft through the storm and strife of many a hard-fought battle.
These aged ministers, whom this board aids, have been the color-
bearers of the denomination. They love the colors, but age compels
them to fold them. With sad hearts they lower them. . . .
"There are two great phases of social work in the denomination:
the Orphanage and the Relief Board. Together they suggest the
heroic figure of ^neas who, when Troy had fallen after the siege by
Agamemnon, took his young son Ascanius by the hand and his aged
sire Anchises upon his back and fled from the ruined Trojan city to
the banks of the Tiber and there builded a newer, nobler, and greater
Troy. So let the Baptist denomination, carrying its aged and lead--
ing its orphans, march out from the past and build greater for the
future.
"What is done, must be done quickly. Daily they drop from the
ranks. In the gloaming they sit and sing:
" 'Lead, kindly light,
Amid the encircling gloom,
Lead thou me on;
The way is dark and I am far from home,
Lead thou me on.'
. "But they are not far from home! Just across they see the shin-
ing shore, and soon their frail barks will touch the sand.
" 'On that far-away strand.
Where the birds ever sing,
And nothing can ever grow old.' "
MINUTES OF SESSIOX IHIS 93
Brother A. L. Phipps of Durham, who has for years been connected
with this board and is now its efficient president, in a recent most
excellent report on Ministerial Relief before the Mt. Zion Association,
makes an argument that should find response in the heart of every
thinking man among us. Mr. Phipps says, in part:
"Thie appeal for aid for aged and infirm ministers has been, in a
large measure, based upon sympathy. In so far as this motive tends
toward warming and softening our hearts toward these worn-out
servants of God, the appeal should continue. But there is another
appeal, that of justice. The American people are beginning to real-
ize that when a man has spent his best years in the service of an
organization he has the right to receive support therefrom when his
fruitful years are passed. Are our churches to fall behind corpora-
tions, railroads, and governments in awakening to a realization of
what is just to those who have faithfully served?"
This board has been in existence for twenty-eight years, and has
brought aid to one hundred and twenty-three needy ministers.
There are now thirty-seven beneficiaries. Contributions to this
work are increasing gradually year by year with but little effort to
bring it to pass. This board, however, is ready to put forth more
effort that the funds may be increased more rapidly, whenever the
Convention may deem it wise to give us such instruction.
Because of some changes in the plan itself of the Board of Relief
and Annuities, of which we were not aware when our report was
passed upon, and because of its ratification by so many States since
then, we offer as a substitute the following for the latter part of our
report beginning "The Southern Baptist Convention," etc.
Whereas, the Southern Baptist Convention at its last session held
at Hot Springs, Arkansas. May, 1918, did launch a comprehensive
plan for worthy Baptist ministers, their widows and orphan chil-
dren, and did create a general Board to conduct and operate the same,
which Board is located at Dallas, Texas, and whereas, said plan
looks to the cooperation of the States, and whereas, the Board is
now seeking that cpoperation at the hands of the State Convention:
Resolved, that this Convention does hereby approve of the efforts
of the Southern Baptist Convention to solve the problem of Minis-
terial Relief within the bounds of our Southern Convention territory,
and that this Convention appoint a committee of three representa-
tive men to act in this matter, with the State Ministers' Relief
Board, and does hereby authorize and instruct them to take up with
the Board of Ministerial Relief and Annuities of the Southern Bap-
tist Convention the Ministerial Relief work and devise a plan for
the conduct of the work in this State, and that such report be made
to the next session of the Convention.
Respectfully submitted, J. M. Abnette,

THE THOMASVILLE BAPTIST ORPHANAiGE
Perhaps no object of our Convention has so little need of a report
to this body on the Orphanage, for Charity and Children, its organ,
throughout the year has borne the message of its doings and experi-
ences into every corner of the State.
Stated in figures, these are the facts:
Number of children at Thomasville, 450; at Ken-
nedy Home, 75 525
Children received since November 15, 1885 1,890
Daily cost for support of each child 40c.
Monthly cost per child $12.12
Monthly cost per child five years ago $8.35
Annual cost per child $145.44
Daily cost for support of 525 children $210.00
Annual cost for the support of 525 children $75,356.00
Net income from printing office $6,006.08

There have been a few changes in our working force which should
be noted:
Mr. C. H. Baugh, after two years of faithful service, has given up
his position on the farm, and Mr. J. R. Black has taken his place.
At the Kennedy Home, Rev. G. L. Merrell retired from his work
January 1, 1918. We owe a note of thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Merrell
for their devoted service. They are both now at Thomasville.
Rev. Theo. B. Davis was selected to take the place at the Kennedy
Home. The work there is difficult, but he is rapidly getting his
hands on the details of a most difficult position.
Mr. J. T. Edmunds has been secured to take charge of the farm
there.
After long delay the Hardee Building has been completed and is
occupied by the boys. TTie chapel is not yet completed. It is closed
in and the school rooms are nearly ready to be occupied. All the
funds raised for that purpose have been used, and more. The prices
of materials and carpenters have been almost prohibitive. More
money must be raised before the work can be taken up. All previous
calculations of costs must be revised. Surely by the spring we can
see the way clear to complete this much-needed equipment.
It is with profound sorrow we record the death of several of our
best friends. Mrs. W. L. Kennedy, after a long and painful illness,
fell on sleep. She lived to see the completion of the cottage which
at; K. v. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
she built, but not to see it occupied. Mrs. M. P. Huette, after four-
teen years of faithful service as matron, was suddenly called to her
reward. She is the first woman to die in the service of the Orphan-
age during its history. We have had an unusual loss in the death
of three of our oldest and most honored trustees: Hon. John C Scar-
borough, who from the beginning had much to do in shaping the
course of the institution; Brother John E. Ray, for many years an
inspiring member of the board; and Brother John C. Whitty, who,
in addition to the building he gave, has been a most helpful friend
in every way. These were indeed the three beloved Johns. We
sorrow at their going and treasure their memory.
All things considered, we have unusual grounds for gratitude to
God for the blessings which have crowned the year. Never before
have our people responded so cheerfully and so liberally, and they
have done it without special appeals. The "One Day's Work" thank
offering last fall surpassed anything we have ever had, and the regu-
lar contributions have held up better than ever, and that in the
midst of war appeals. The late meeting of this Convention enables
us to report the returns from the Thanksgiving season of the present
year. To all ordinary appearances it was the gloomiest possible
prospect. On Thanksgiving Day the weather was against us, and
on account of the influenza a majority of the churches have been
closed ever since. How these Thanksgiving offerings were gotten
together in many of our churches would make an interesting and
inspiring story. This goes to show that people will give in spite of
diflBcuIties, if they want to do it. The amount is larger by ten thou-
sand dollars than it was a year ago at this time.
Our final health record has been good, and yet we have to report
two epidemics. We passed through the last severe winter without
the usual scourges of the season. Later, we had 132 cases of measles,
but without any serious complications. And we have just now
passed through a most fearful scourge of influenza. There were
at least 475 cases, children and grown people, and not a single death.
The heroic effort and cheerful spirit of our workers, and of the chil-
dren as well, through all these trying days and nights deserve the
highest praise. A new chapter in Orphanage history has been made,
the unwritten story of women's devotion to children not their own.
Many of them, exhausted by the effort to relieve the little sufferers,
were themselves stricken by the same disease. Some going back to
nursing too soon fell, the second time, at the post of duty. The entire
institution was turned into a hospital and all the well were nurses.
While they were "never-to-be-forgotten" days of trials, we emerge
from it all with a finer bond of sympathy. This means that our
school work has been interrupted. But our system is elastic, and
the break can be mended by the end of the year without serious
damage. Teachers have been hard to secure. The lure of Govern-
ment work has done much harm, for some left us. giving little heed
MINUTES OF SESSION liUS 97
to contracts entered into in good faith. Really efficient workers are
not easily found. Nothing can be more delightful than our work at
the Orphanage with workers of character and ability, and the cheap-
est money we ever spend is that spent for really efficient men and
women to handle these great and difficult situations. This leads to
the suggestion that we cannot maintain a high order of work with-
out paying the price. To do work for dependent children that is not
of that order falls little short of being a crime. There are two
things to be emphasized. The first is, that we must adjust ourselves
to the fact that this work is worthy of our best effort and for that
reason will call for increasingly large sums of money. "We have put
our hands to the plow and cannot turn back.
The other is, that we are devoting ourselves mainly to only one
hemisphere of the great task. We are taking care of dependent
children with little thought or effort to prevent the supply of them.
We are pressing into the Orphanage children who have mothers,
strong and well, physically, mentally and morally able to care for
them. Under present conditions there seems to be no help for it.
But it ought not so to be. Such a mother ought to be helped to hold
her children together, in an unbroken home. She will care for them
without a salary; and besides, she is the divinely appointed guard-
ian of her children. The mother who is hopelessly broken in health,
or the one unfit in character, presents a question of an entirely dif-
ferent nature. Your General Manager has urged before the North
Carolina Conference for Social Service the serious consideration of
this matter. Now, if we, as a denomination, are to be leaders in
thought and leaders in action, we must so relate ourselves to exist-
ing agencies of public welfare as to bring our strength to bear on this
the most badly handled task of social service. If there is no ade-
quate existing agency, we must help to make one. Excellent breth-
ren, in their mistaken zeal, urge that these children should be sent
to the Orphanage for the better training they may receive here.
Some of this zeal should be expended in devising ways and means
for preserving such homes intact. The Board of Charities and Public
Welfare is working out a measure to be presented to the present
Legislature, by which worthy mothers may be aided in caring for
their children. This effort is worthy of the most careful and earnest
consideration of our people. If the State can, in the schools for the
Deaf and Blind and in some institution for the hopelessly crippled,
care for the physically defective, and in the Caswell Training School,
the Jackson Training School, and in the Industrial School for Girls,
care for the mental and moral defectives, it is not unreasonable to
conclude that the existing institutions maintained by the different
Christian denominations and benevolent orders could soon ade-
quately care for all other dependent children of the State. At
7
98 X. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
least this report would most earnestly call attention to these broader
phases of the study of child-welfare. Baptists have led the way in
the care of children eligible to the orphanages; they should also take
a large share in this suggested task scarcely begun.
M. L. Keslek,
General Manager.
In closing this report there are two evils to which we feel it out
duty to call attention:
1. The prevalence of that form of lawlessness known as Lynch
Law should be discountenanced and denounced by all good citizens.
We believe the officers of the law should do everything within their
power to apprehend and bring before the courts those who engage in
this form of lawlessness, and that the courts should mete out to such
violators the full penalty of the law.
2. The second evil is the tendency on the part of juries in certain
sections of the State to fail to convict violators of the law, no matter
what the crime, or how strong the evidence. This is especially true
if the prisoner at the bar is a white man charged with an offense
against a negro. While we recognize that there are social distinc-
tions that exist between the races, we believe that before the law all
men should be equal, and that no guilty man should escape punish-
ment because the man against whom he commits an offense belongs
to another race.
APPENDIX D
REPORT ON BIBLICAL RECORDER
Once more the Biblical Recorder comes to the Convention to ren-
der an account of its stewardship. As the organ of the Convention,
the paper is glad to report to the lx)dy to whose interests it gives its
best efforts.
THE KUSINESS SIDE
By a very happy arrangement, and one that is unique in the his-
tory of religious journalism, the Convention is not burdened with
the financial support of the paper. Individuals subscribe for the
paper but they receive the worth of their money, and the Recorder
is in no sense an object of charity or benevolence. While the Con-
vention is not burdened with the finances of the paper, it does have
a part in its management. It has an equal voice with the directors
in the election of the editor. This might be called representation
without taxation.
Financially all papers have had a struggle for the past two years.
This is especially true of religious papers. The price of paper has
increased two hundred per cent since the war began, while printers'
wages have advanced fifty per cent. All material used in making a
paper has advanced in price greatly, thus making it much more ex-
pensive to get out a paper than formerly. As a result, many papers
have suspended publication, and five Baptist papers in the South,
which were privately owned, were taken over by the Conventions
because the owners were not able to meet the expense of publication.
The Recorder Company has been able to issue the Recorder and
ends the year in fair financial condition.
We found it necessary at the beginning of the year to reduce the
size of the paper, as other papers of the South were forced to do.
The matter of reduction was presented to the Convention at its last
session and we were very much gratified at the way in which the
proposition was received. While we have been somewhat handi-
capped for lack of space we have tried to make up in quality for
what the paper lacked in quantity. It is our purpose to increase
the size of the paper as soon as our finances will permit. Mean-
time, we shall print twenty or twenty-four pages from time to time
as necessity may require and thus relieve the congestion.
We are asking our Women's Missionary Societies to make Janu-
ary and February Recorder months, and we are hoping to receive a
list of new subscribers from every society in the State. An honor
roll is being published and it will be interesting to see the list grow
from week to week.
100 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
We are under obligation to Secretary Walter N. Johnson for the
excellent work he has done for the Recorder. At the associations
which convened last fall he urged that each church attempt to se-
cure one new subscriber for every twenty of its members. A num-
ber of churches have responded and as a result a goodly number of
new names have been added to the Recorder list, and this is only
the beginning.
Owing to the epidemic, which prevailed last fall, many of the asso-
ciations failed to meet and others held one-day sessions. This made
it impossible for the Recorder to secure the usual number of re-
newals and new subscribers at these important annual meetings.
For this reason we most earnestly urge the pastors to request their
people to renew. We wish very much that an active member of each
church would undertake to secure renewals and new subscribers.
This is a fine opportunity to render a very valuable service to the
Kingdom.
POLICY OF THE PAPER
It is with the policy of the paper that the Convention is chiefly
concerned. It could not and should not command the support of the
Convention or the churches if it failed to carry out the policies of
the Convention.
It is not only the duty, but the pleasure, of the editor to use the
Recorder for the promotion of the things for which the Convention
stands and which it has taken under its fostering oare. All the
representatives of the several departments of our work are invited
to present the claims of their respective departments through the
columns of the paper. It is not possible for us to publish all that is
sent us by the various agencies of the denomination, as these are so
numerous that all the space in the Recorder would be taken if we
printed all; but we try to give to each its proportionate amount of
space, always giving preference to matters of immediate and press-
ing importance.
The expressed will of the Convention on denominational matters,
is the law that controls the paper. No matter what the views of
the editor may be on matters of denominational policies, when the
Convention expresses itself that becomes the end of controversy,
and the Recorder will do its utmost to aid in carrying out the meas-
ures adopted by the Convention. As we understand it, that is the
function of an organ; it is the mouth-piece of the organization which
has adopted it.
In all other matters, and upon all other questions than those of a
denominational character, or which will affect the denomination,
the editorial columns will express the honest opinions of the editor.
He alone is responsible for the views expressed, and in no sense
assumes to speak for the denomination. He hopes that in expressing.
MINUTES OF SESSION 1918 - 101
opinions on any general religious principle, he will express the
views of Baptists, but there may be room, even among Efaptists, for
honest difference.
On questions of vital importance, the editor feels that the Recorder
should have and express opinions without stopping to think whether
or not they will strike a popular chord. There are many vital ques-
tions before the Avorld now, the importance of which has been accen-
tuated because of conditions brought about by the war. If the
religious papers do not stand against Catholic aggression it will go
on unimpeded. There is undoubtedly a well-organized and concerted
effort to destroy denominationalism, and substitute therefor a spine-
less, inert organization, of which the Y. M. C. A. will probably be
the directing force. Union of church and State is another question
which has loomed large on the horizon in these last days. All these
have an important bearing on our denominational life, and their
discussion is necessaiT to keep our people informed.
In discussing current topics, the editor expresses his honest opin-
ion without regard to the opinions of persons, or the probable effect
on parties. As an individual the editor has political convictions,
but as editor of the Recorder he knows no party and will not allow
the paper to be used in the interest of any party. Those in public
positions will be commended when special commendation is merited,
and criticised, if their acts are such as to make criticism seem to the
editor to be necessary, and this -will be done regardless of what the
political affiliations of the public officer may be.
DOCTRINAL DISCUSSION
For over a year the editor has intended to write a series of edi-
torials on doctrinal subjects, but the columns of the paper have been
so crowded that we have not been ^ble to give space to it. We have
determined, however, to make space for these editorials beginning
about the first of February. It is the purpose of the editor to dis-
cuss, first the great vital doctrines upon which evangelical denomi-
nations are agreed, and then to present those that are more dis-
tinctively denominational. We are urging the importance of stand-
ing by our denominational principles, when numbers of our young
people especially, do not know what those principles are. They need
to be informed before they can have a proper appreciation of the
things for which Baptists stand.
In presenting our distinctive doctrines the editor will have due
regard for that spirit of fraternity that should characterize all re-
ligious discussions. While showing the points of difference between
Baptists and other denominations, he will remember that others
have a right to their opinions, and he will gladly recognize them as
brethren who love the same Lord whom he loves, and who are try-
ing honestly to extend His Kingdom in the earth.
102 -V. C. BAPTIST UTATE CONVENTION
CONCLUSION
In concluding this report we wish to say that the Recorder con-
ceives it to be its mission to stand for the truth as it has been re-
vealed to us in the word of God, and to use its influence to the
utmost in extending the teachings of God's word to the ends of the
earth. We ask the aid of all our brethren and sisters in increasing
the number of subscribers to the Recorder, thereby enlarging its
usefulness.
Livingston John.son, Editor.
J. S. Fahmer, Business Manager.

STATISTICAL SUMMARY
I am closing my eleventh annual report as Statistical Secretary.
Twenty-eight associations with a membership of 137,016 were due
to meet after the outbreak of the epidemic of influenza. Some of
these failed to meet. Others met for one day only. I have re-
ceived more or less complete reports from fifty-seven associations —
all except the Bladen, Brunswick, Dock, Haywood, Mitchell, New-
found, Stony Fork and Transylvania. It might be said that the
Haywood and Newfound met in August, but all efforts to get re-
ports failed. All the others were due to meet after the outbreak of
the epidemic, and we do not know whether or not they met. We
are using 1917 data for all these as well as from many churches
in other Associations.
Dr. Lansing Burrows, the veteran Statistician of the Southern
Baptist Convention, in writing me said, "Hitherto I have been ex-
pected to make brick without straw. This year they will not even
give me clay." Our clerks are doing better than this in North
Carolina. We have used available data to make the report as acciir-
ate as possible. I give the data below for the busy reader who does
not have time to "dig through" more than eighty pages of facts.
CHURCHES AND MEMBERSHIP
We have 2,191 churches in 65 Associations. The membership is
288,970. This is a gain of 28 churches and 5,875 members. Several
small churches disappear from the rolls in the associational minutes.
About 40 new churches appear for the first tiine.
BAPTISMS
This year we report 13.268 baptisms. In such a year when every-
thing was at such high tension and so uncertain this seems a good
record. This number is 696 fewer than last year, 2,833 fewer than
in 1916. and 4,635 fewer than in 1915. This year only 1.431 churches
report any baptisms with 760 showing no evangelistic work. This
is over one third of our churches that passed an entire year with no
additions by baptism.
CONTRIBUTING AND NOX-CONTRIBUTIXG CHURCHES
When we make our averages, we consider the "do-nothing"
churches along with the active ones. A subsequent paragraph will
show what the contributing churches are doing for the several
objects. When we study these non-contributing churches, remember
I have included those whose 1917 membership was used, those with
STATISTICAL SUMMARY 189
no membership reported, and those that failed to report to their
Association, but did report to me on blank postcards sent out. It
would be fair to add 70 or 80 to the first group and subtract the
same from the last one.
We give the number of churches that gave to the several Conven-
tion objects, and those that did not. The first is the number of
churches contributing to the several objects, and the last those re-
porting nothing.
To some Convention object. 1,854 — 337; to State Missions. 1,615—
576; to Home Missions. 1,563—628; to Foreign Missions, 1.565—626;
to Sunday School Missions. 680—1,511; to Orphanage. 1,694—497;
to Christian Education. 840 — 1.351; to Ministers Relief, 1,005 —
1,186.
CONTRIBUTING TO CONVENTION OBJECTS
The Amounts reported for Convention objects are as follows:
State Missions, $66,572.61; Home Missions, $53,473.92; Foreign Mis-
sions, $69,228.65; Sunday School Missions, 5.426.03; Orphanage,
$87,088.20; Christian Education. $25,500.28; Minister's Relief, $7,-
747.94; Total $315,037.63. This- is a gain of $60,351.96.
It is clear to most people that the above amounts are for Associa-
tional years ending from May to November. It also includes money
for Associational Missions, money sent to the orphanage and that
sent direct to Home and Foreign Boards in Atlanta and Richmond.
With this statement no one would expect these totals to agree with
the totals of the Convention Treasurer whose fiscal year closes
November 20th.

306.11.
PER CAPITA CONTRIBUTIONS
For all Convention objects the per capita is $1.09. This is a
gain of 19 cents during last year. The average of those who give
would be at least $2.50. Twenty-four Associations have an average
190 N. C. BAPTIST STATE CONVENTION
of over $1.00 per member as follows: Pee Dee, $3.67; Piedmont,
$2.72; Roanoke, $2.42; Central, $2.40; Robeson, $2.06; Raleigh,
$1.96; Neuse-Atlantic, $1.88; West Chowan, $1.80; Buncombe, $1.75;
Mt. Zion, $1,74; Pilot Mt, $1.50; Flat River, $1.38; South Fork, $1.38;
Beulah, $1.32; Wilmington, $1.32; Eastern, $1.25; Cumberland, $1.21;
Mecklenburg-Cabarrus, $1.17; Chowan, $1.12; Liberty, $1.12; South
Yadkin, $1.10; Tar River, $1.07; Sandy Creek, $1.04; Johnston, $1.01.
OTHER AVERAGES
The average church membership is 132. Of the 1,431 reporting
baptisms, the average is slightly over 9. The number of church
members for each baptism is 22. Of the contributing churches to
Convention objects the average is as follows: State Missions,
$41.22; Home Missions, $34.21; Foreign Missions. $44.24; Sunday
School Missions, $7.98; Orphanage, $51.41; Christian Education,
$30.36; Minister's Relief. $7.71; All objects, $169.92.
SUNDAY SCHOOLS
There are now 2,125 Sunday Schools. This seems to be a loss
of 26, but the number of branch schools reported is 41 fewer than
last year. It seems 2,053 churches now have schools, 138 have
none, and that there are 72 branch schools. The membership is
now 212,841. This is a loss of over 7,000. It is quite sure this i«.
accounted for by the number of our young men in the war. From
Baptist homes in our State, there are now at least 20,000 j'oung
men in the army and navy. Surely half these were in Sunday
School before leaving home. Then again nearly one-third of the
Sunday Schools were suspended on account of the epidemic when
church letters were prepared. For data regarding gains and losses,
finances, teacher training, etc.. see full report from the Secrcetary to
Board of Missions and general statistical table.
BAPTIST YOUNG PEOPLE'S UNIONS
The B. Y. P. U's of the State seem to have maintained their num-
bers and efficiency during the year, despite the quarantine. But
little advancement could be made. The number of Senior and
Junior organizations stands around 500, with a total membership
estimated at 15,000. There are seven cities in each of which a
well organized "City Union" exists, and the B. Y. P. U. flourishes
in practically all of our Baptist Colleges and Secondary schools.
The Ninth Annual B. Y. P. U. Convention was held at Winston-
Salem, June 11 to 13. 1918, at which 35 Senior and Junior organiza-
tions reported A-1.
COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS
Our fourteen high schools employed during the year 97 teachers.
and enrolled 2,247 students. The three colleges employed 81 teach-
STATISTICAL SUMMARY 191
ers, and enrolled 907 students. The value of property and endow-
ment is $1,491,690. For details, see table of school statistics.
WOMJAN'S WORK
The work of the Woman's Missionary Union is growing steadily.
There are now missionary societies in 54 of our Associations, and
in 51 of these the work is conducted by Associational Superintend-
ents. Forty-six Annual Associational W. M. U. Meetings were held
during the past year, 33 of which were attended by W. M. U. officers
or their representatives. Eleven thousand six hundred and fifty-two
miles were traveled by officers of the Union, and 9,083 by the super-
intendents in the interest of missions.
The Union is now composed of 1,560 societies, 210 having been
organized during the past year. There are now 841 women's socie-
ties, 209 Y. W. A's. and G. A's., 59 R. A. Chapters and 451 Sunbeam
Bands. Approximately 30,000 of the 150,000 women and children
in our churches have been enlisted in our societies, and the ulti-
mate aim is to enlist every one.
Last year the societies reported nearly 5,000 subscriptions to Home
and Foreign Fields and to Royal Service, and a large number to the
Biblical Recorder.
During 1918 the contributions were the best in our history, the
total being $63,101.76. Twenty Associations reached their appor-
tionment and 30 made a 10 per cent gain over the previous year.
The increase ranged from 10 per cent to 45, 63, 97 and 207 per cent.
Three 1,000-dollar Memorials have been pledged to the Church Build-
ing Loan Fund, and forty 500-dollar Memorials.
LIST OF ORDAINED MINISTERS
Those Marked Thus * are Pastors.
A year ago we prepared a new list from all available sources.
This year we have carefully revised that list with 1918 reports from
fifty-seven Associations and 1917 rolls of the other eight.
In making these changes we have added 148 new names, changed
160 post offices and erased more than 150 names because of deaths,
removals from State and for lack of any information this year.
Following the regular list, you will find a list of pastors in army
service, a list of ministerial students and a list of those who have
died.
Of course there are many errors yet. but we have tried to make
the list correct. Over 600 churches change pastors every year. This
makes it impossible to keep the list up-to-date. Send me any cor-
rections that ought to be made.
