WANTS.
1. A steady INCREASE of regular income to keep pace with the
growing work. This increase can only be reached by _regular_ and
_larger_ contributions from the churches, the feeble as well as the
strong.
2. ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS for our higher educational institutions, to
accommodate the increasing number of students; MEETING HOUSES for
the new churches we are organizing; MORE MINISTERS, cultured and
pious, for these churches.
3. HELP FOR YOUNG MEN, to be educated as ministers here and
missionaries to Africa—a pressing want.

Transcriber’s Notes
Obvious printer’s punctuation errors and omissions silently
corrected. Inconsistent hyphenation retained due to the
multiplicity of authors. Arithmetic errors in the receipts have
been retained as printed.
Images have been moved outside of paragraphs, resulting in page
numbers that are slightly off.
Changed “carrried” to “carried” on page 86. (our work begun and
carried)
Missing “a” inserted in “and” on the back cover (humane and
Christian policy)
