SUNDAY SCHOOLS
i NEED BOOSTING
protestant Churches VIII
Make Campaign to Check
Decreased Attendance

A campaign is beng planned by the
protestant churches in Memphis to In
crease The Sunday school attendance
during the summer months. The
Protestant Pastors association at their
meeting last Monday morning perfected
the plan and 1t is proposed to call Sun
LAY school superlntendents and Bible
class teachers together one night next
week and perfect a campaign orRaniga-
lion to project the campaign which con
templates enlisting all of the churches
IN Memphis and vicinity in the effort
70 increase the attendance upon the
sunday schools during the months when
there is a tendency on the part Of every
church.
In addition to organizing a campaign
committee, a director and secretary Of
the campaign will be selected to handle
the publicity and organizing of forces
IN the various churches, assemble the
reports from the various Sunday schools
each week and furnish the press Of
the city with a copy of these reports.
The Sunday school showing the larg-
est per cent of attendance during the
period will be given some recognition
OF distinction.
This matter was presented to the
Baptist pastors and superintendent
executive committee meeting on Mon
day night and they heartily approved
the plan, II has been suggested that
the last Sunday Of the campaign, which
will be the last Ssnday in August,
shall be designated as soldiers day in
the Sunday schools and a special eff
fort viii he made to nave all Of the
men represented by the stars In the
service flags of the various churches at
tend in a body and special exercises
will be held In their honor.
From the following facts II would
seem that q campaign to increase Sun
day school attendance is absolutely
necessary. During last year, there was
a decrease In Sunday school attendance
IN the Protestant churches of Amer
Ca Of more than 1870, 900. The Sunday
schools Of the Northern Baptist conven-
ton showed a decrease of So 06; the
CongregationaIists a decrease Of 2,5SS;
the Evangelical association a decrease
OF b7.44S; Protestant Episcopal, 2G, 1Sg;
the Reform, l6,342; the Methodist Epis-
copal, 12i,945, There were 525 Sunday
schools in the United States discon-
tinued and 5000 superintendent and
teachers dropped from the rolls. The
above facts were given by Louis A.
Hartmann at a recent meeting In Chi
tago, according to THE Biblical World"

AN RusT.

The character Of a community is
largely dependent upon the indi-
viduals Of that community. The at
mospheFe in which we live has
much to do with what We are.
Good habits mean good morals;
good morals mean good thoughts:
good thoughts mean happiness, use
fulness and real service. No n
person is absolutely without influ-
ence. II is not true that q man
has a right to do as he pleases with
what is his, unless he pleases TO do
right,
II were we'll for every man to
keep before him the standing ques-
ton: What is my contribution to
the character of the community, Of
which ! am a part?" Our churches
mean more to our city than any
thing else. Without them and their
influence, no one would care to own
a dollars worth Of property within
our city limits. You need the
strength and help that comes from
the services OF Gods house; there
