PLANNING TO TAKE
THE CHURCH CENSUS
Mr.. cartheI Calls Meeting of Sunday
School Superintendent and Chair
men of Committees.

Mr.. Joseph Carthel. state secretary of
the Alabama Sunday School Association
has called a meeting of the superinten-
dents of Sunday schools in Birmingham
and the ehalrmen of the district commit
tees to discuss and plan for the house-to-
house canvass of the city to be made
June 3.
The object of the canvass is to aid
Sunday school work and to get a re-
liglous census of the city. On June 3, 500
Sunday school workers will visit all the
homes of the city and ascertain how
many attend Sunday school, church or
other religious gatherings.
Mr.. Carthel said yesterday the work
should be done because there are many
people in the city who have no connec-
ton with any church, and the easiest
way to find them is to temporarily band
together the Sunday schools and churches
Of all denominations for a thorough and
systematic investigation on one morning,
and by a simple record of church prefer
ence make the connection between all the
homes and the churches they prefer.
The movement Is supervised by a COM
mittee representing the denominations
and religious organizations of the city,
directed by a superintendent, executed by
a district committee and advertised by
pulpit and press. The 500 visitors are to
be volunteers from the churches. Sunday
schools and young peoples societies, and
after proper instructions from printed
matter, public meeting and pulpit. they
will be distributed among the twenty dis
tricts to report at a. m on Tuesday.
June 8, at central headquarters in each
district, and from there be sent out by
the district chairman to call at from
forty to forty-five homes. When the
work Is completed the cards will be dis
tributed to the pastors preferred, thus
enabling each pastor to go directly to
those he can most easily reach.
