THE COUNTRY CHURCH.
Growth of Religious Feeling in Rural
Districts
From Public Opinion.

From Public Opinion.
The decline of the church is becoming a
favotite editorial and oratorical topic. In
town and country empty or deserted
churches are pointed out to substantiate
pessimism. In Social Progress for 1865,
DR.. Josiah Strong, taking all religious Or
CARNATIONS in the United States, shows
that the net gain of the average church
during 1904 was less than three members
and that with one exception among Protes-
tant denominations, the number of addi-
lions on confession of faith in 1904 was less
than in 1894 For the larger statistics from
time to time have appeared tending to show
that the churches are less vital than they
were ten years ago. and that the I'M
churched Protestant population is increas-
Ing faster than the church membership.
What of the country church, the frontier
post of religion in the field from which so
large a proportion of our urban population
is being drawn? Is it less vital than it was
year, ten years ago? Is the rural church
also declining?
In order to secure frst-hand and definite
information on this point, a letter was
framed setting forth the above facts and
was sent to a number of ministers of small
churches In small towns, of all denomna-
lions, and in all parts of the country, ask
Ing them frankly what they thought of the
spiritual condition Of their own and rural
was the request for the church membership
of 1905, 1904 and 1894 and they were asked,
If things seemed wrong, to outline the
causes and to suggest remedies. The replies
have been many at length and to the point
point.
The general tone of most of the letters
from country ministers does not seem to
agree with the optimism in the figures
Few neglected an opportunity to show why
there decadent country churches and
how the conditions could be remedied-that
is to say, they presented the curious anomaly
of saying that alPs well with the rural
church and then prescribing remedy for
the decline! The most interesting Of all the
letters were those which frankly told the
tremendous odds against which the obscure
but heroic country church was fighting
The greatest difficulties that the country
church has to contend with, as voiced In
letters from ministers all over the country,
are the drift of population from country to
city and the influx of the foreign-born. 1T
will naturally be expected" says one pas
tor of a small town In Maine, "that in
community of abandoned farms and de-
creasing population the churches will wane
From the experience have had during the
last three decades with both country and
city churches, / am highly optimistic. OF
course the life of the city church is largely
fed at the expense of the country church,
because of late years the tide of emigration
has set strongly from the rural towns to
the city. Still, according to my observa-
ton the churches as rule are alive ag-
gressive and making an advance

HEBREWS AROUSED.
Object to Teaching Biblical Account
of Nativity.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
PORTSMOUTH, Va, January 2o.-The
orthodox Hebrews of Portsmouth some
what exercised because of the teaching of
the New Testament and the memorizng by
the scholars in the public schools of verses
based on the biblical account Of the Ma
tivity.
Rev. II. Benmosche minister of Gomley
Chesed Synagogue of this city, has consult
ed with the superintendent of schools. Mr..
Joseph H. Saunders, on the subject.
Asked regarding the matter. the minister
sta ted that 1t had been reported to him by
the parents of number of Hebrew children
who attend the public schools that it IS
made part of their school duties to learn
teachings of the New Testament. and that
there is a feeling that teachings contrary
to the faith of these children's parents
should not be taught in the public schools.
Rev Mr.. Benmosche quoted the sixteenth
section of the constitution CT Virginia,
which guarantees religious freedom. In the
light of that section he does not think the
children of Hebrew parents should be de-
merited for failure or the refusal of their
parents TO permit them to study the class
of literature in question.
II have been to see Superintendent Saund-
ers," said the rabbi. land have stated to
him my objections to this class of study
and the objections of the president OF the
congregation and the parents of the chill
dren.
"He very agreeably consented to take
thoroughly. / shall, l think. get satisfac-
tory action from Mr.. Saunders, but l made
it clear that If / do not I would seek the

CHURCH PAWNSHOP
To Aid Laboring Classes-Moderate
Interest.

Interest.
A dispatch to the Philadelphia North
American from Manila says:
There are but few Americans IN this
country who are aware of the utility and
scope of the institution established in Plaza
Goti, and known as the Monte de Piedad
The institution is generally known as
church pawnshop and such it is; but that
is not it's only function. 1t Is also saw
ings bank, in which depositors may lay
aside, without the least fear of losing their
hard-earned savings, any sum from a half
peso upward. the said deposits earning
interest at the rate of per cent per an
mum.
The Monte de Piedad and the savings
bank form one single beneficent institution.
The object of the paWnbroking department
is to loan money to the needy on objects
of gold and silver precious stones and jew
elry at a moderate rate of interest, per
cent per annum.
The object of the savings bank is to re-
ceive and make productive the savings of
the laboring classes by giving depositors
an annual interest of per cent upon the
amounts deposited, employing the sums
deposited and the interest gained in the
operations of the pawnbroking department
Ia the general business of the institution.
While the institution is exclusively
Ca tholic one, and, therefore. under the d.
rect control of the archbishop of Manila,
Its operations are open to the use of the

Thousands of natives and Spaniards of
all walks In life patronize the establish
ment, depositing therein jewelry. for which
they receive good value. the article pawned
being valued by experts according to the
intrinsic value of the material contained
therein. Any article thus pawned can be
left in pawn for the period of one year, the
pledges being renewable at the expiration
of that period. At the end of the year the
person who pledged the article is notified
and if not redeemed the pledge is sold by
public auction. and the money derived from
the sale is held at the disposition of the
pledger for a period of ten years, after
which time 1t becomes part of the general
funds of the institution. When the article
is sold liquidation is made; the amount
of the loan on the object, the interest due

UNION PRAYER MEETING.
Strikers Forget Labor Troubles for a
Time.

CHICAGO, January ga strikers meet
ing, with its attendant heated debating of
labor troubles, was converted into a prayer
meeting this week by Rev. f. D. Vaughan
of the Forty Street Methodist
Church. Union printers had begun the dis
,ussicn of the strike situation when Pastor
Vaughan entered the hall and asked per-
mission to take part in it. The request
was granted. and after complimenting the
men upon their peaceful methods of con-
Quoting the strike, Mr.. Vaughan said
Union men have made a mistake in
placing their union before their religious
duties Your constitution demands that
you do this, but 1t should be changed. Your
first duty is to your church. Let us pray
Every hat was removed and every head
was bowed. After the prayer President
E. r. Wright of the typographical union
addressed the men, and when the meeting
was closed the strikers walked sedateiy
from the hall, entirely satisfied with the
result of the meeting, although the strike
situation had scarcely been touched upon.

PROMINENT EvANGELIsTS.

During the coming week special services
will be held at the Peoples Mission, $40
Pennsylvania avenue northwest, during
which themes incident to mission life and
work will be discussed by competent and
experienced pastors and workers
Unusually good music. both instrumental
and vocal, will add to the attractiveness of
these gatherings. A volunteer orchestra
and several singers well known in the city
including Mr.. ]. G. Trayler leader Of the
choir of the Church of the Epiphany have
promised to render music appropriate to the
occasion. The congregational singing in the
Peoples Mission is regarded as exception
ally good. The old time gospel songs, such
as Hold the Fort" whatsoever WIZ and
others, are sung under the leadership of or
chestra, piano and organ, with great fer
vor. while the famous GLORY Song has
become a favorite with the large audiences
that crowd the hall Sunday nights.
The music and general conduct of the
meetings Will be in the hands of Rev. Geo.
w. Havell, one of the most popular Chris
tan workers in the city the management
OF the details being under the care of Rev.
w. c. McMichaei, the successful evangelist
of the mission.
All of the city pastors and their congre-
cations have received invitations to coop
crate, and number of them have promised
to do so. Mr.. Thomas c. Moves of The
Star and the board of trustees, of which he
is chairman, using every effort to adj
vance the Peoples Mission along the lines
OF the highest grade of mission work, and
are soliciting the good will and active as
sistance of the pastors and churches of the
city. Good fellowship prevails between the
two great missions of the city, the Peoples
and the Central Union, the superintendent
of the latter being one of the speakers in
the course of addresses to be delivered dur
ing the week.
The program of addresses for the week is

DIR. DAWSON'S MISSION
BIG REVIVAL SERVICES AT
FOUNDRY M. E. CHURCH.

The mission being conducted at Foundry
NJ. e. Church by Rev DR.. w. j. Dawson.
author and revivalist, has been receiving
widespread attention, owing chiefly to the
leaders personality. Dr. Dawson is an Eng
lishman. He describes the manner In which
he first became interested seriously in evan
gelistic work Of this character as follows;
During the last year have lived a kind
of life wholly new to me. For many years
no day has dawned which has not provided
me with several hours Of work in quiet Ii
brary. For twenty years have produced
upon the average a book a year; I have
written two sermons each week, and more
than one article for newspapers and maya
zines; and daily have thanked God for the
shelter to grow ripe the leisure to grow
wise
This program of existence suddenly ter
minated in September, 1904, when 1 visited
America. A strong compulsion was laid
upon me to attempt quite different kind Of
work, and in obedience to that imposition of
a higher will have spent six months in adj
dressing daily congregation of thousands
upon the greatest of all themes, and with
the greatest Of all objects-the surrender of
the individual character to the spiritual
mastery of Christ.
II have been brought into contact with
various minds. with novel conditions, with
much that is tragic, with yet more that is
pathetic in human life; above all, 1 have
been granted access to the secrets of many
hearts.
I'm brief ten days of mission preaching
a bond of extraordinary affection is created
between the preacher and the people. 1t Is
a sacred and peculiar intimacy; it is scarce
ly too much to say that such an intimacy
usually requires for it's development years
of patient friendship. and is not always at
tanned even then"
Meetings have been held every afternoon
at $50 o'clock and every evening at S
o'clock since last Sunday. The mission will
continue throughout next week No even
ing meetings will be held on Saturdays, and
no afternoon meetings either on Saturdays
or Sundays.
The attendance has been exceptionally
large and all denominations are represent
ed in the congregations. A special appeal
Is made to the non-Christian.
