A DUN FOR CHURCH MEMBERS
From The Chicago Chronicle

After careful consideration the Centenary Meth

novel plan Of raising funds necessary in con-
Quoting the AFFAIRS OF the congregation Ii was
suggested by the Rev. j. J. Waters. who has de-
tcrmincd to run his church democracy giving
everybody opportunity and nducement to con-
tribute. At q meeting Of the Influential members
he explained his plan. He showed a large roster
with all the members Of the church on it. OPP
posite each name nifty two spaces for credit
marks. The roster Is placed in the vestibule OF
the church. where It remains, In plain view OF
every one entering the hurch At the close of
every month the roster is taken down and all who
have contributed anything to the current ex-
penses OF the church are checked UP in the spaces
opposite the names. The amount paid Is not
given. but the check indicates that something
however small. has been paid toward the support
OF the church: The contribution comes into the
hands Of the clerk by means OF envelopes. and the
amount and name are obtained In this way. The
roster will show just who has paid anything and
who has not. II IL claimed for the system that
the dellnqucnts get tired after while seeing the
row OF blanks after their names and begin 10 pay
something In order to Ill up the blank spaces II
