We ARE GETTING BETTER

opscial Corrssroaasnoe % xhs 1rsss
WASHINGTON. Sept. 1.-THE
census bureau has just issued a
bulletin, based on the last religious
census in 1906, which confirms the
belief of ministers and public men
that the whole country is getting
better.
A mass OF figures bearing on re-
1igion and churches has been col
lected by special census statisti-
clans. Among others, they have
found two significant facts; first,
that he churches are growing more
rapidly than the country itself:
second, that the mebership of the
Roman Catholic church has grown
more than twice as fast as the
Protestant churches since the last
census was compiled in 1880, six
years earlier. The Jewish congre-
cations, too, show a remarkable
growth. There are now 1O1,457
Jewish congregations.
The wealth that is invested in
the country's church buildings rep
resents more than any big trust
ever has accumulated
II all the churches of the United
States were put on the realty auc-
ton block they would bring the
stupendous sum of $1,257,575.S67.
OF these huge holdings. the Ro-
man Catholic denomination owns
$685., 63S,787, this not including the
The Spokane press. [volume] (Spokane, Wash.) 1902-1939, 1909-09-15

value of other institutions main
tained by the church, such as hos
pitfalls, orphanages, etc.
Protestant church property is
valued at SPECIALISTS, which is an
increase of $3S6,246,S71 over nine
years ago.
1t is the women as a class who
mainly are responsible for the i'm
mense showing of the nation S
churches. Men form only 43.1 per
cent of the church going popula-
ton.
Should some wonder of science
enable one minister to address all
churches at the same time, through
the telephone, and the churches
were filled, he would have the mag
nificent audience of 5S,536,830 per-
sons.
Figures, while not yet given out
by the department, prove that
music enters greatly into modern
church worship. Millions of dollars
have been spent for pipe organs
and the training of choirs.
Viewed strictly as a business
proposition, there is no such an
amount of capital tied up in any
other undertaking which draws it's
interest-in this case human souls
SO quietly, and which is directed
so ably.
The significant fact about the
growth of churches is that they are
growing faster than the country is.

woodpeckers, Hiram J. Smith, Iiv-

PEELED to return home today, after
three days unsuccessful effort to

then the dog has haunted the
