CHURCH SURVEY IN OHIO

Less than 80 per cent OF the rural

Further facts brought ont by the sur

There is One country church TO each
$50 persons living III rural districts of
ohio. but ouly one minister To every 500
such persons.
churches have a membership OF less

Most Of these arc declining yearly.
and this is particularly true in districts
where farming is poor
The most hourishing country church cs
are those which lay emphasis on com
munity rather than on sectarian lines.
The country church in Ohio has been
found To hc too small in size. too mar
