THE CHURCH INVESTMENT
Reader Raises Question Whether 1t Is
Not Too Large.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 4 question so extremely simple, and
one which has undoubtedly been in the
minds o. many people, expressed or I'M
expressed. is this.
why should such enormous amounts OF
money be invested in churches and other
places Of worship?
Surely God Almighty is not susceptible
to fiattery. nor Is lie TO be found only In
expensive cathedrals. Wherever few
are gathered together" there, lie says,
He may be found.
do not mean TO criticise the building
Of large and absolutely comfortable places
OF worship. nor the employment OF good
music and able divines. But would the
Lord not be more pleased If, instead OF
investing tl.0C0OJ0 In a church, with its
stained glass windows and handsome
carvings. etc, the same size building,
containing the same comfortable seat
ing capacity. the same light and same
heat, should be built for very much less
and the balance devoted to educational
aud hospital or other charitable work?
Many Will say: But the people who
subscribe 100000 for church will not
give II for these other purposes
While this may be true to a great ex-
tent do not believe the question has as
yet been agitated sufficiently.
Without lessening the capacity OF
churches or comfort of those who attend
the services. think what a vast amount
OF money could be saved and devoted TO
caring for the morals and intellects OF
countless thousands OF children
II may be said that any ornamentally
expensive structure would come under
the same rule and that our cities ana
towns would cease TO contain beautiful
edihces. This is. Of course, not the case,
as building constructed for revenue is
not In the same class as one constructed
for the worship Of God. nor we do ex-
pect the same aims and mercenary re-
quirements In one as in the other
The question asked at the beginning OF
this article remains the same Why ex-
pend thousands In mer rial glass win
dows carvings and other expensive deco
rations when more lasting and far more
beneficial and Christlike memorials could
be so readily achieved?
What would Christ advocate we're lie
again to visit this earth?

The economic cause of the amend

transfer of capital to the proposed

the transfer of these funds will result,
1t is declared, in a contraction Of

Georgia Archives in
Peril of Destruction,
Asserts Phil Cook

Secretary Of state Phil Cook Tues
day issued an informal statement in
regard to the importance of the State
preserving the old records which are
filed in the Statehouse
According to Mr.. Cook many of the
Oldest records in the State Archives
Department are in imminent danger
Of destruction. Most of the books
are now stored away in cases which
could be destroyed by fire, and many
of the old maps have been rendered
practically valueless by excessive
handling.
Mr.. Cook points out that whereas
the State of North Carolina has ex-
pended something like $4,000 recent
ly for the preservation of it's old rec
ords, Georgia is spending less than
$4,000 appropriated last year for the
purchase Of glass cases. A much
larger sum is needed Immediately he
says.
