Mr. Foreman' statement is pre sented In a report which he has prepared for submittal on to the fony-ninth triennial general con vention of th K pi sco pal church, which wilt uoimblH In Washing ton.

Therefore, it i essential if the civilization of th cities which draw their con tinuing strength from the country districts Is not to disintegrate that t-ps be taken to promote, in these outlying districts high standards of Christian life.'

Three out of every five of the boy and girls who are growing up in the country districts today, he says, will eventually go to the city, y-t only one-fifth of the people in the country districts attend church services, loss than ten per cent are church members and one-seventh of all the villages and country communities have any churches whatever. "When we consider that the i Chritlun churches, and my own particularly," he says, "are doing little to promote, religious ideals and concepts of life In these dis tricts where they are needed most, what honest, law abiding citizens donthly. its way tnrougn me oio floes off tne point Barrow anchor age Wednesday and disebRFged mall and fruit before continuing to remote and sparsely willed trading posxa mm..- ... n hrnwn derhv rson tooK n.ivnmnKe m " rji. 1IATK OFF.
