Religious Awakening Hoped For
Pennington, Mo-, March 23.-Of
the entire 36,OOO,OOO population of

are members of any church, protes-
tant or catholic, according to the
statement of the Rev. R. S. Boyd of
Pennington, campaign manager of
the Presbyterian Progressive Pro
gram in this synod. This leaves 49,,
0O0,00 without any church connec-
ton. ~
These figures were compiled from
a complete survey of the entire field.
They were taken from statistics rim
states from West Virginia to Flori-
da, and from Missouri to Texas. ) J
AS a result of its findings, the
Southern Presbyterian church is car
rying out a general evangelistic mo-
vement in this and other synods, lead
ing to the enrolment of at least So
600 new members, it is hoped. The
apathy towards religion which is be-
ing exhibited at the present time by
many people must be met by stupsn-
dOus efforts of the church, according
to s. Waters McGill, director of the
Presbyterian Progressive ProgramI
The family altar and stewardship
movements which the church is con-
Quoting are expected to become great
vitalizing forces for religion. At a
part of the latter, 100000 tithers are
being sought.
