Old members are lost sight Of; one
big city church recently purged its
roll Of more than a thousand names
OF members" who could nowhere be
found. although they had for. years
been appearing in the church's sta
tistical reports.
On the financial eide, curiously,
the churches have more careful rec
ords than on the human size. Yet II
is an open scandal that in churches
not a few, often money given for
benevoIences. like missions, has
been appropriated for current expen-
ses by inefficient trustees or treas
urers. Even after all the agitation
OF recent years, probably less than
half the churches IN the land have
budget system, such as good
business house would use. In this
direction noteworthy efforts toward
Improvement are being made by the
general UNCONVENTIONAL agencies and
allied organizations.
Some time ago a careful canvass
was made OF 1000 churches upon
four points: Accessions to che
church, ages OF the new members,
present total membership. and
church finances. On the frst point,
only 80 per cent Of the replies were
complete-that is. really accurate
while % per cent were poor-mere
approximations-and IS per cent
could make no reply at all.
When II came to the matter oil
age, only Is per cent were complete,
and IS per cent could not give any
figures. Even on the basis matter
OF their present total membership,
only sc per cent could give exact
information. On the subject OF
finances, more than half the 1000
churches, or 81 per cent, were able
to give definite information.
While general enterprises OF re
ligion will continue TO command at
tention. yet to promote the increased
efficiency OF the local congregation
is one OF the most important tasks
before the church in America.
