tolChurch Movement Will Have Won
deIful Support In Rural Communities

ApV ~ in the newspapers, securing the cooperation of
"a the telephone companies, announcements at farmers
oranges. unions and clubs are suggested as means to arouse
interestin MI GO To CHURCH Sunday for rural workers. The
Orangeslndd Farmer says edhorialy:
"ThEssRuRAL CHURCH HAS HAD ITS SHARE OF CRITICISM
IN RECENT YEARS. SOME OF THE CRITICISM is JUST, BUT
MUCH OFT is SENSATIONAL AND UNJUST. THAT RURAL
CHURCHES ARE A VITAL PART OF EVERY RURAL COMMUNITY
THEREScAN BE NO QUESTION:. WITHOUT THEM COUNTRY
LIFE WOULD GO TO RUST AND DESTRUCTION, AND THIS ASIDE
FRoMsRElIGIoN. TO SAVE COUNTRY LIFE, THEN, WE MUST
SAVE THE RURAL CHURCH, AND TO SAVE THE RURAL
cHURcHfWE, AS INDIVIDUALS, MUST DO OUR PART IN PER-
soNAL DEVOTION AND ATTENDANCE.
"The problem now before us is this: What can we as farmers
do to promote this movement and accelerate the c%hurchgoing Gus
tom Of olden days? The answer is simple. Go to church ourselves,
ask our %neighbors to do likewise and ask minister or priest to join
in welcoming everybody of the community"
To make a great success of this affair it will be necessary for
each and every one to see his pastor, tell him of the plan, get his
cooperation and then get generally busy. Let it be known in every
chu1chsin this broad land-from Pacific to Atlantic, from the lakes
to the guf-that special services will be arranged and an effort
made to have every person in the community attend church.
