GOOD WILL CENTRE
NEAR THE HOME

The Woman's Missionary Society
of the First Baptist church has
opened a Goodwill Center at 1403
North Davis street, near the Wom-
ans Home. A house has been rented
and small beginAing made. The
! first activity is an afternoon Sunday
school, which was opened last Sunday
with good attendance. This after
noon at 8 o'clock we hope to have all
who are interested attend. Reverend
Burks, the cowboy" evangelist from
Texas, will address the audience.
The Goodwill Center idea is not
entirely new, but is just becoming
| practicable
For several years educators have
advocated making the public school
buildings social centers; that IL. al
lowing the school buildings to be
used as centers or meeting places for
the social activities of the several
communities. These social centers
have been developed In many places
with excellent results. They provide
the wholesome bringing together Of
young people through various organ
iaztions, such as literary societies,
debating societies, musical entertain
ments, etc. For older people they
provide the lecture hour, night school
and other activities without laying
any stress on the religious idea. Then
most people have some idea of settle
The Pensacola journal. (Pensacola, Fla.) 1898-1985, 1917-11-18

lie school buildings for religious pur-
poses, even for a short devotional ex-
ercise at the opening hour of school.
Therefore, the school building must
be abandoned as q center of religious
activities.
The women Of the churches, or OF
the Woman's Missionary Union of the
Southern Baptist Convention, worked
out the idea Of the Goodwill Center.
AZ first they thought of making
community eenters of the church
BUILDINGS, but finding that churches
are located to suit the convenience OF
The majority of the members and not
for the increasing population, this
plan failed.
In most towns churches are located
in groups, as in Pensacola there are
church centers, too far for most peo-
pie to attend or to send the children
So the women conceived the idea Of
locating buildings at regular inter
walls, where they could be reached By
all and where they could combine ac-
Invites for the development of the
physical, social and religious life OF
the community. Instead Of calling
these buildings Social Centers, Settle
ment Houses or Churches, they cal
them Good Will Centers. We see tho
elimination of the idea among the
enlisted men, where the churches. the
