Miss M. H. Everett, Steuben N.Y. Dear Miss Everett: The Congretional Home Missionary Society is very much in need of two things in which you can be f service. 1. The systematic contribution of your Sunday-school to its treasury 2. The opportunity to educate the children -- our future leader -- in Home Mission knowledge and into Home Mission convictions

There are several things which you can do to help us in these matters 1. Arranged some definite and effective method of gathering Home Mission gifts in you Sunday-school during 1908. If these gifts can be gathered before April 1, so much better. The slip enclosed shows why. Lay your plans for something large. It is often easier to do a big thing than a little one. 2. Arrange for systematic Home Mission instruction in your Sunday-school in such was as are adapted to its needs. 3. Fill out and mail the enclosed card. We earnestly ask you not to neglect this. On the other hand, there are a number of things we can do for you. 1. Furnish you leaflets for distribution. A few samples are enclosed. 2. Furnish you with mite boxes or envelopes. 3. Suggest plans for a Home Mission Bazaar which can easily be gotten up by the children.

Join hands with us in this partnership of effort and let us see what we can do for the kingdom of Christ in this nation.

If you are no longer superintendent, please hand this letter to you successor. May you have a year full of blessing in your Sunday-school.

Sincere;y yours, Hubery C. Harring General Secretary

Contributions may be sent to the treasurer of the congretional Home Missionary Society, Washington Choate, 287 Fourth Avenue, New York, or to the treasurer of your state Missionary Society, or of your state Women's Home Missionary Union. In the latter case it should be specifically stated that the gift is for the Home Missionary Society, as the State Unions aid also other homeland societies.
