THE CHURCH AS
AeOC|AL CENTER
A sroade. Sphere for Rellsion-New
Field for the Rural Church.
BY Peter Radford
Lecturer National Farmers Union


The social duty Of the rural church
Is as much part of its 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 interprets'
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-
ligion Is essentially social-its tenets
OF faith being love and brotherhood.
and fellowship. While following after:
righteousness, the church must chals
lenge and seek to reform that social
order In which neral life Is e1-
pressed. While cherishing ideals of
service, the rural church which IT.
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 It's members as through the
avenue Of social functions.
The country town and the rural
community need a social center. The
church need offer no apology for its
ambition to fill this need in the COM
munfty, II an understanding OF its,
mission brings this purpose into clear
consciousness. The structure OF o
rural community is exceedingly com
plex; It contains many social groups,
each of which has its own center, but
there are many localities which have
but one church and although such
q church cannot command the inter-
est OF all the people, It is relieved
from the embarrassment Of religiously
divided communities.

What is a Fair-Rate?

We do not know what constitutes q
basis for rate making and have never
heard OF anyone who did claim to
know much about 1t, but il the pros
perity Of the farm IS factor to be
considered and he railroad commits.
sion concludes that an increase In
rates is necessary, we would prefer
that It come to us through articles OF
consumption ol their Journey from
the factory to the farm. We would,
for example, prefer that the rate on
hogs remain as at present and the
rate on meat bear the increase, for
any farmer can then avoid the burden
by raising his own meat, and farm
er who will net try to raise his own
meat ought to be penalized. We
think the rate on coal and brick can
much better bear an increase than
the rate on cotton and -four. We
would prefer that the rate on plows
remain the same, and machinery,
pianos and such articles as the poor
er farmer cannot hope TO possess bear
the burden of increase.
The increase in rates should be SO
arranged that the farmer who lives
at home will bear 10 part Of the bur
den, but let the farmer who boards
In other states and countries and
who feeds his stock in foreign lands,
pay the price of his folly.

Social Needs imperative.

The average country boy and girl
have very little opportunity for real
enjoyment and have, as a rule, a
vague conception Of ths nea&u OF
pleasure and recreation. 1t is te ILL
this void IN the lives Of country youth
that the rural church has risen to
the necessity Of providing entertain.
ment, as well as instruction, to its
membership among the young. The
children and young people Of the
church should meet when religion Is
not even mentioned. It has been
found safest for them tc meet fre.
Quently under the direction and care
Of the church. To send them into the
world with no social training exposes
them to grave rerils 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 directly or indirectly
some modern equivalent for the husk.
ing bee, the quilting bee and the sing.
ing schools of the old days. In cne
way or another the social instincts
of our young people must have oppor-
tuaity 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

RATE INCREASE
NECESSARY
FARMERS UNION OFFICIALS
THINK RAILROADS ARE EN-
TITLED TO MORE REVENUE.
Products of PIow and Farmer Who
Lives at Home Should Be
Exempt From increase,
BY Peter Radford.
Lecturer National Farmers' Union.

Lecturer National Farmers Union.
The recent action Of the Interstate
Commerce Commission in granting an
increase in freight rates in the eastern
classification Of territory: the applieae:
ton Of the roads to state and inter
state commissions for an increase In
rates, and the utterances OF President
Wilson on the subject bring the farm
ers Of this naticn face to face with the
problem of ar increase In freight
rates. It is the policy Of the Farmers
Union to meet the issues affecting the
welfare Of the farmers squarely and
we wilt do so in this instance.
The transportation facilities Of the
United States are inadequate to ef-.
fectively meet the demands OF CON-
merce and particularly in the South:
and West additional railway mileage;
is needed to accommodate the move
ment of farm products. Il IN the wis
.dom ;of our Railroad Commissions an
increase in freight rates is necessary
to bring about 2an improvement In our
transportation service, and an extern
sion of our mileage, then an increase
should be granted, and the farmer is
wiling to share such proportion OF
the increase as Justly belongs to him.
but we have some suggestions to make
as to the manner in which this In
crease shall be levied.
Rates Follow Lines of Least Resist.
ance.
The freight rates of the, nat!,i: have
been built up along lines OF least re-
sistance. The merchant, the manu-
facturer, the miner, the miller, the
lumberman and the cattlemal have
had their traffic bureaus thoroughly
{ organized and In many instances they
have pursued the railroad without
mercy and with the power Of organ
lied tonnage they have hammered the
life out of the rates and with unre-
strained greed they have eaten the
Yitals out OF our transportation system
and since we have had railroad COM
missions, these interests, with skill
and cunning, are represented at every
hearing in which their business Is
! involved.
The farmer Is seldom represented
at rate hearings, as his organizations
have never had the finances to en-
ploy counsel to develop his side Of
the case and, as result, the products
Of the plow bear sr unequal burden
of the freight expense. A glance at
the freight tariffs abundantly proves
this assertion. Cotton, the leading
agricultural product the South, al
ready bears the highest freight rate Of
any necessary commodity in COM
merce, and the rate on agricultural
products as q whole is out Of pro
portion with that Of the products OF
the factory and the mine.
We offer no schedule Of rates, but
hope the commission will be able to
give the railroad such an increase in
rates as is necessary without levytng
further toll upon the products OF
| the plow. The instance seems to pre-
sent an opportunity to the Railroad
| Commissions to equalize the rates as
between agricultural and other classes
of freight without disturbing the rates
on staple farm products.

Universal IHstInet.for Play.

In providing for enjoyment the
church ases one Of the greatest meth
DDS by which human society has de-
veloped. Association is never secure
unt1 It Is pleasurable; in play the IN
etiuctive 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 a cultured and refined society.
It is plain, therefore, that the
church which aims at perfected So
ctety must use in a refined and ex-
aated way the essential factors in
social evolution and must avail itself
OF the universal instinct for play.
II the church surrounds itself with
social functions which appeal to the
young among Its membership. It will
Ill q large part OF the lamentable
gap in rural pleasures and will reap
the richest reward by promoting
higher and better type Of manhood
and womanhood.
