I presume, is fair sample of Min
nesota towns SO far as churches are
concerned. Among the number Of
protestant churches there are doubt
less some which have an uncertain,
if not a precarious existence. Now
let's see what the result would be
if all these churches were united.
In the first place there would be a
spacious building capable of seat
ing practically all the people Of the
place. It would be not only invit-
ing and restful in its appointments,
but would be constructed on the
most scientific sanitary plan. The
basement would contain a gymna-
SUM, an audience room and all the
equipments of the rooms of the X.
M. G. A. of the large cities. In the
main room above would be a pipe
organ such as no city of ten thous-
and inhabitants now contains. The
quartette choir would embrace the
best musical talent of the place, and
be supplemented and reinforced by
we'll drilled chorus of fifty voices,
under skillful choir-master. This
feature of every service would of
itself draw a full house.

OF course this united parish would
be a large one-so large that one
man could not do it justice. This
would necessitate a second pastor,
who would be an assistant to his
principal and sort of intermedi-
airy. He would make daily visits
among the people. look after their
wants, attend to all the business
details of the church, keep in touch
with the choir-master and assume
an advisory position in all the aux
iliary societies of the church, repre-
sent the church in the humane So
ciety. the commercial bodies. etc.
He could easily make himself the
most useful person in the commun-
| ity, and one whose services would
soon be indispensable. Under this
new regime the church would take
a greater interest in schools and all
the business interests of the COM
munity, and these, in turn, would
take a greater interest in the
church, until there would come to
be a bond of sympathy which IS now
impossible and which will continue
to be impossible so long as the par
amount idea is the preservation Of
effete and immaterial denomination
| al creeds. w. nj. 4.

ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.

ESPECIAL CoRREsPoEDEEcE.I
OThe April number OF Everbody's
Magazine contains an article on the
Consolidation of Churches, from
the pen of DR.. Newell Dwight
Hills, who breaches in the pulpit
of the Brooklyn church once occu-
pied by Henry Ward Beecher. DR..
Hills has noticed that in the COM
mercial, manufacturing and educa-
tional world the tendency of the
age is toward reorganization, CO
operation and unification, and that
the result is beneficial to every in
terest. Instead of thousand wells
in city, as formerly, he noticed
one vast reservoir filed with water
which is conducted by pipes to a
thousand families. Instead ofthous-
ands of lamps, as formerly, he no
ticed one central electric light plant
which supplies the source of illumi-
nation for whole municipality. In
the place of little shops with enor-
nous wastes he notices great de-
partment stores with cheaper goods
and greater varieties. In the cities
the little schools, with their small
classes and poorly paid teachers,
are things of the past, and in their
place is noticed a central high
school where each professor can
lecture to a hundred students;
where maps, charts and all the
modern paraphernalia of teaching
are had; where all branches may be
taught and where the instructors
are paid decent salaries.
DIR. Hills, who is something of a
traveller and observer, processes
also to see a growing notion in the
minds of the practical, progressive
people of the protestant churches
that the churches should likewise
take on something of this spirit of
condensation or cooperation or
call it what you will. They cannot
understand why a central church is
not as practical and logical as a cen
trail high school. And this notion
is all the more prominent in such
as hold the church to be, first of all,
"a school of morals and a college
for spiritual culture. DR.. Hills
is inclined to fall in with these no.
tions. There are, he says, 169
church denomination in the United
States and 100 of them are starving.
He cites several small cities he has
ted with the express purpose oil
- ~stigating their church inter
ests. He found what everyone else
has noticed. Places with 1900 OF
1000 people had from six to eight
churches, with poor buildings,
poorly paid pastors, feeble choirs
and congregations varying from
100 to $50. DR.. Hills thinks these
churches should compromise or
their creeds and church rites suffi
GENTLY to worship tremendously in
one spacious building, as thorough
| " equipped to teach morality ano
perform the various functions o.
the church as the central school t.
perform It's mission. He closes BY
saying that there should be three
denominations, viz: the Catholic
which could not be expected t
unite with any other, the Quakers
and the United Protestants.
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1904-04-06

While DR.. Hills has said enough
and proposed enough in this article
to create a commotion among such
of the clergy and churchmen as hold
religious dogmas first, and every
thing else subordinate to them, still
he must have been more or less
hampered in his contentious, and in
his propositions for relief from the
present condition Of things, by the
fact that be is the pastor of the reg
ulation Congregational church.
Could he have severed the denomi-
national strings which hold him to
his adopted church he would doubt
less have been more severe in his
denunciation OF existing conditions,
and holder in his suggestions Of a
remedy.
