The Churches in Summer.

The summer church congregations
are less populous than ever. An in
creasing number of people are wor-
shipping God in nature, at the rate OF
40 miles per hour in their automobiles
There is a hollow echo among the
empty pews, as the deacons march
about with the contribution boxes.
Some say that the minister is to
blame, and that his sermons do not
hit modern life. But still, when a
clergyman breaches about divorce and
the Mexican situation, he does not
seem to help things any. The trouble
is probably that peoples time and
attention are more exclusively occu-
pied with other things than formerly.
Their business or their job in the
daytime, the picture show, the club
or the motor, car at night, occupy
their exclusive attention. The feel
ing OF worship has been crowded out.
More and more churches during the
summer months are uniting in their
services. One we'll filled audience
