Excerpt from Forty-Sixth Annual Report of the Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 1915 A decrease of almost the amount of the special gifts received last year from Mrs. Gamble shows that the regular work of the Society has kept up to its usual high standard in this year of financial depression. The expense of administration, including that Of the Branches, has been a little more than five per cent of the receipts. For the General Society the expense Of administration has amounted to less than one per cent. The report was accepted. After the hymn, no. 177, Hark, ten thousand harps and voices, Mrs. Bishop Bashford and Mrs. F. H. Sheets, Recording Secretary of the Home Department, were invited to seats upon the platform.
