Universal Instinct for Play.

In providing for enjoyment the
church uses one of the greatest meth
DDS by which human society has de-
veloped. Association is never secure
until it is pleasurable; in play the in
stinctive aversion of one person for
another is overcome and the social
mood is fostered Play is the chief
educational agency in rural commun-
tiles and in the play-day of human
childhood social sympathy and social
habits are evolved. AS individuals
come together in social gatherings,
their viewpoint is broadened. their
ideals are lifted and finally they con-
stitute cultured and refined society.
1t is plain, therefore, that the
church which aims at perfected So
ciety must use in a refined and ex-
allied way the essential factors in
social evolution and must avail itself
of the universal instinct for play.
If the church surrounds itself with
social functions which appeal to the
young among it's membership, it will
fill large part of the lamentable
gap in rural pleasures and will reap
the richest reward by promoting a
higher and better type Of manhood
and womanhood.

THE: CHURCH As
A5OC|AL CENTER
A Broader Sphere for ReIision-New
Field for the Rural Church.
BY Peter Radford
Lecturer National Farmers Unto,

Lecturer National Farmers Union
The social duty of the rural church
is as much a part of it's obligations
as its spiritual side. In expressing its
social interest, the modern rural
church does not hesitate to claim that
it is expressing true religious in
stinct and the old-time idea that the
social instincts should be starved
while the spiritual nature was over
fed with solid theological food, is fast
giving way to a broader interpreta-
ton of the functions of true religion.
We take our place in the succession
of those who have sought to make the
world a fit habitation for the children
of man when we seek to study and
understand the social duty of the
rural church. The true christian re-
igion is essentially social-its tenets
of faith being love and brotherhood
and fellowship. While following after
righteousness, the church must chal-
lenge and seek to reform that social
order in which moral life is ex-
pressed. While cherishing ideals OF
service, Iuo rural CHURCH WHICH -.l-
tains the fullest measure of success
is that which enriches as many lives
as it can touch, and in no way can
the church come in as close contact
with its members as through the
avenue of social functions.
The country town and the rural
community need social center. The
church need Cffer no apology for its
ambition to fill this need in the com
munity, if an understanding of its
/ mission brings this purpose into clear
, consciousness. The structure of q
rural community is exceedingly com
pick; it contains many social groups
each of which has it's own CENTER but
| there are many localities which have
but one church and although such
a church cannot command the inter
est of all the people, it is relieved
from the embarrassment of religiously
divided communities.

RURAL SOCIAL cENTERs

We need social centers where our
young people can be entertained,
amused and instructed under the di-
rection of cultured, clean and COM
petent leadership, where aesthetic
surroundings stir the love for the
beautiful, where art charges the at
mosphere with inspiration and power,
and innocent amusements instruct
and brighten their lives.
To hold our young people on the
farm we must make farm life more
attractive as we'll as the business of
farming more remunerative. The
school house should be the social unit,
properly equipped for nourishing and
building character, so that the lives of
our people can properly function
around it and become supplied with
the necessary elements of human
thought and activity

Social Needs Imperative.

The average country boy and girl
have very little opportunity for real
enjoyment, and have, as rule,
vague conception of the meaning of
pleasure and recreation. 1t is to fill
this void in the lives of country youth
that the rural church has risen to
the necessity of providing entertain.

membership among the young. The
children and young people of the
church should meet when religion is
not even mentioned. 1t has been
found safest for them to meet fire.
quently under the direction and care
of the church. To send them into the
world with no social training exposes
them to grave perils and to try to
keep them out of the world with no
social privileges is sheer folly There
is social nature to both old and
young, but the social requirements of
the young are imperative. The church
must provide direct or indirectly
some modern equivalent for the husk-
ing bee, the quilting bee and the sing
ing schools of the old days In one
way or another the social instincts
of our young people must have oppor-
tunity for expression, which may
take the form of clubs, parties, pic
mics or other forms of amusement.
One thing is certain, and that is that
the church cannot take away the
dance, the card party and the theatre
unless it can offer in its place sat
isfying substitute in the form of more
pleasing recreation.
