MINISTRY TO A FORGOTTEN PEOPLE -- The poster of the Church School Missionary Offering (CSMO) highlights visually the dramatic progression from the devastation of strip mining to the smiling faces of children in Appalachia. The 1975 CSMO will zero in on the Episcopal Church's work in a pocket of desperate poverty : Appalachia, the area encompassed by the Appalachian Mountains covering parts of 13 eastern states. The CSMO, in recent years the children's arm of the Presiding Bishop's Fund for World Relief, is on its own in 1975. The poster was designed by a resident of Appalachia, Herb E. Smith, Appalshop, Inc., Whitesburg, Ky.
