Mrs. CoIeburn, of Birmingham
Makes Instructive Talk to
the Members.

to have been fulfilled in the organiza-
ton, last Friday evening, of the
Twentieth. Century Self-culture
Club" by Mrs. Coleburn, State or
ganizer, in the parlors of the beauti-
full home of Mrs. Geo. W. Staples. |
The organizer talk was rich and pro-
fuse with instructive ideas. These
clubs have already been organized in
many states and also in many coun-
tries abroad. One of the main pur-
poses of the CLUB is to carry the moth
er thought into all that concerns or
touches. childhood in home, school,
church or state, to raise the standard
of home life and bring into closer re-
lation the home ard school, so parents
and teachers may cooperate intelli-
gently La the education of the child.
In the course of study will be taken
up the very best methods of develop
ing all sides of a ehilds life into broad
and useful fields of manhood and
womanhood that it must meet handi-
capped by lack of early training. The
club In Columbia was organized with
quite a number of members and it is
hoped that there will be many more
to give their membership into this
helpful and wonderful work that has
accomplished so much for others and
which places our city among those of
great civic pride that consider this
movement for better mothers and
better citizenship for our boys and
girls, one of the paramount issues of
the nation. The necessity of 1T is
felt on all side and it is hoped that
the work accomplished here will make
a favorable comparison with that of
other towns of our size or even great
er.

center. Fur miles ia an easy wagon
drive and lie every family were that
far from church the distance would
not be too great. Duplication OF
churches In one community prevents
any OF the congregations from thriv-
Ing and the small church cgroaws
with much greater difficulty than the
larger one. Once month service by
an absentee pastor leaves the church
without leadership or continuity Of
interest"
Mr.. Pinchot in his address pre-
dicted this convention marks the be-
ginning OF q strong nation wide inter-
UNCONVENTIONAL movement to prevent
maintenance Of superfluous sectarian
churches. particularly In country dis
tricts.
Principal Purpose.
The principal purpose Of the rural
church is to stimulate community
spirit among farmers and consequent
ly the church reform movement
means definite increase In material
prosperity. according to the Rev. r.
A. Hutchison, prominent: civic worker
OF Pittsburg, and secretary OF the
home mission board OF the United
Presbyterian church.
THE chief end OF the country
church Is not raising OF crops and
fiocks," he said. ut Is the produc-
ton of men marked for their person
al character and the development OF
a community civic Righteousness. In
the present weakened condition OF
the country church as an institution,
cooperation is essential for the main
tanning Of ideals and standards OF
civic life. The rural church should
be the center of its community and
not only cooperate with other coun-
try churches. but with all organiza-
tons which aim at the betterment OF
society,""
Miss Jessie Field. of New Y,k,
knwn the country over as 1.-The Corn
Lady" explained that prosperous
Young Woman's Christian Associa-
ton organizations in a rural district
would provide means of making girls
and women more useful to the COM
munity. They will be more content
with farm life II there is a commu-
nifty women's club such as the
Young Woman's Christian Associa-
ton.
Spirit Lacking.
The Rev.. Hubert c. Herring, OF
Boston, secretary Of the national
council of congregational churches
said: THE country church suffers
from lack Of the cooperative spirit.
1t Is never easy to get the community
to work together. There are many
feuds and factions. The sectarian
spirit causes some families to attend
church outside the parish, but real
get-together movement among the
churches will remedy this condi-
ton.
