Ministerial Vivisection
and the Growth of
Churches.

factor in the working efficiency
of a church, but he is a highly
important one. 1t is a matter o1
common knowledge that a bust
ness which has no one immedi
ately in charge of it is not apt tc
prosper. There are few kinds Of
business that will run them.
selves. The church is an enter.
prise which requires constant
care. The minister is the man
in whom the responsibility for
this care is vested. He is pre-
sumably an expert in church ad-
ministration. The efficiency of
the church will depend largely
upon whether his expertness is
sufficient for his task.
Ministerial vivisection is the
greatest crime committed by
most country and village church
,es. 1t is a crime not only ag-
ainst the minister, but against
the churches themselves. 1t con-
sists essentially in dividing up a
minister between two or more
different charges and compelling
him to attempt to do in several
different places work which re-
quires his constant attention in
each place. Out of TAG churches
in IA counties only 129 had undi-
vided ministers; 264 had each
half a minister, 172 had each a
a third, ISL had a fourth or a
fifth of a minister each. A whole
minister has a big enough task
to keep a church alive, as the
records we'll show. A piece of a
minister has an infinitely more
difficult task.
It is hard to separate cause
from effect in such questions as
this, but the figures are striking.
Of those churches with a whole
minister each, $50 are growing;
of the half a minister churches,
38% are growing; OF the third of
a minister churches, 36% are
growing; while all of those chur-
ches with less than a third of a
minister each, only 24% are
growing. It is not good business
to send a part of a man to do a
mans work or to send one man
to do four mems work.
There is still another angle Of
this question which shows quite
clearly the effect upon church
growth of the minister's pres
ence. It is obvious that when q
minister. for example, has four
churches, one Of the churches
has a resident pastor; /; the other
three have a nonresident minis
ter. A little more than one
third Of the churches considered
above have resident pastors. Ma.
ny of these pastors are handf
capped by the fact that they have
one or more other churches at
distance which they must worl
in addition to the church. neal
which they live. In spite of thil
fact, of all of these. churches
with resident pastors 40R ar'
growing, while Of the remaining
number of churches which hav'
non- resident ministers only 274

Obituary.

Carollne, ntCn daughter or Ma
thias and Ernestine Arm, born at
West Charleston, Ohio, May 25,
1850, united in marriage at Cow
ington, O., to M. L. BowersoX
October "a, 1888, died December
20, 1912, at her home, known as
the home farm of her parents in
this county, where, ever since
five years of age, she continu-
ously lived, aged 62 years, Z
months and 4 days. She was the
first to die Of six sisters. She
lived a happy married life of
more than "a years, during which
time a son, Paul, was born to
them September 20, 1898, dying
aged one day.
At the age of 18 y ears she u
nited with the M. E. church at
Morris Chapel, then located Il
miles southeast Of this village,
removed to this place and became
the church of the M. E. society
of this place, and from which
her funeral rites were conducted,
having had her spiritual home in
this building for Al years, Her
husband having been a member
of the Evangelical Lutheran
church at their marriage and
continuing such for several years
thereafter, joined her church,
since which they have journeyed
together in the same faith, en-
joying together the same spirit
ual blessings, growing out of
what many church people do not
have, to-wit, a family altar,
which service she helped to per-
form. Her last altar service,
rendered the night of her death,
was especially blessed in COM
munion with her Master.
She doubtless had a Fremont
ton of death, then close at hand.
During the silent hours of some
nights before she sang the fam
iliar hymn, of which the follow
ing is a part: Il would not live
alway away from my God. and
Immediately before death, say
ing, Don't leave me,' and i
am coming" and all was over.
In the midst of life we are in
death. She was a constant rea-
der of the scriptures and took
special delight in reading the
Psalms, but more especially the
23rd Psalm, in which she found
a large measure of comfort and
help. She also enjoyed the rea,
ding of Christ's Sermon on the
Mount, and quoted many pas
sages from that masterpiece of
doctrines.
Since womanhood she has suf-
fered many bodily ills, but more
especially the latter part of her
life, when her suffering was al
mOSC COIlSCdIlC. I1cI Gnu was
peaceful. Heart failure ended
all.
Of her immediate family she
leaves surviving a husband, five
sisters, and many other relatives
of more distant kinship, to mourn
their loss. A large concourse OF
friends and neighbors attended
her obsequies to attest the es
TEEN in which she was held. Flu

A very sudden death occurred

A revival meeting began last
night in our M. E. church, to
continue indefinitely. It is to be

will be done and that it will be
fruitful of good results in a large

sinful life.
We are here on the brink of a
closing year, and while we look
backward over the past in re-
view of what there was of fail
ure or of success for us in the
year closing, we may as we'll look
forward to behold what may be
in store for us in the new year,
and while this pen will not re-
count the many things in store,
and rushing on us as fast as Time
can bring it to us, there is one
thing we will mention that may
augur well, and that is the par
eel post measure, recently passed
and to go into effect New Years
Day. This is certainly a new
creature and one which expert
ence alone can determine wheth-
er beneficial or not. For the pre-
sent the writer has no predic-
ton to make, but is willing to a.
