More than SO per cent of the homes
in New York City are rented In the
Borough Of Manhattan the percentage
rises to 81.
Nor is this condition limited to the
Metropolis. 1t Is common to most
cities The people of the United
States who live In rented homes are in
excess of 54 per cent Of the population,
according to the latest government re-
turns. About As per cent own the
houses in which they live.
These statistics have been collected
for the survey of city life now being
eenducted by the Interchurch World
Movement to provide q practical pro
gram for closer co-eneration of BrQtes-
tant Churches in America. And the
survey already reveals one OF the
gravest problems now confronting the
Church
Rented homes the survey shows,
mean migrant families, for the day Of
the long lease Is passing, and increases
in rent cause increases In moving The
migration of families has shifted and
changed the congregations of urban
churches And too often the family
that moves beyond the reach Of one
church does not transfer its member
ship to another, even though'it attends
that other.
The moving family. say the workers
ON the survey leaves the church letter.

| by which membership is transferred,
and the family cat behind. II the
church did not have more lives than q
cat, these survey workers are begin
ming to think, 1t would have been dead
long ago, for, just as the family "lOses"
its cat, church loses members, al
though another church does not gain
them.
One preacher in a pastorate Of ~
years noted 1900 changes In his con-
gregatlOn.
The present gene .ation OF the city,
the survey reveals. Is generation Of
wanderers because Of the growing
number of rented homes and the rising
rents. AS a result, the family church
is becoming an urban rarity. The IAN:
lily In which the father 10 . founder as
the Church he attends, married to q
member OF the congregation, and with
children baptized by the family min
lister, is more and Ihofe seldom found,
the survey workers report,
Too often the increase in rent has
sent the family to another naighb0r.
hood. One purpose Of the fnterehurch
World Movement survey Of the cities
is to determine how, through that
efficient cooperation Of churches
which is the major aim of the move
ment, migrant families may not ba lost
to the membership Of their Respective
denominations.

The way to all things at Ginling lies

The moon door at Ginling Is round

she steps over its high sill, may spread
wide her arms and still not touch its
rim with the tips of her fingers.
Some times across the court yard Is

The whole is China, old China and

the greatness Of old China, But the
