Hundreds of rural churches are dead and hundreds more are dylnar and tha rural ministers fare entirely to blame, according; to j Jamea W. Street of Mackinaw, 111., of me rural onurcn department at uetnany Park, Ind. : In an article written for tha United Press, 3. W. Street acathlngly de nounces the young minister who accepts a rural pulpit merely as a stepping; atone for a charge In the city. By J. W. Street. That tha rural churcb Is decadent Is not questioned by those who have scanned tha stream that aver flows Into the urban oenters of population. It no longer .possesses the strength to mould the lives of Its people on a large spirit ual plane. Rural communities ar no longer immune from modern evils. Tbe grossest forms of sin are new round amid the most attractive rural sur roundings. "Country slums' ar bo longer a curi osity, bnt an alarming situation demand ing immediate attention. Hundreds of rural churches are dead and other hun dreds ar dying. It Is not because there la no want or desire for the services rural churches might render that so many ar dead. It is because the right kind of leadership Is not present - Minister Chapes Volley. The largest single Item in shaping; the policy of the rural church is the minis ter. He comes as an evangelist and or ganises the congregation. He ia called to direct Its workers In their efforts to bring "the kingdom of God among men." He ia given full charge .of the work. His time is his to be used as he directs. Seldom does his people question the use he makes of it. The people have confidence in him and trust him in all church matters. They usually pay him a larger salary than any member of his congregation re ceives, notwithstanding the great furore regarding the low salaries for ministers. The homes of the community are open to him. Every officer of the church has a right to look to him for help in di recting the work of the church. How has he acted under such circumstances? From a careful investigation of many cases it has been established that nearly every man who haa accepted a call to a rural church does so only as a stepping stone to city work. He has been Im bued with the Idea that only beginners and broken down failures find a place in the rural service. He believes that the big men and the strong men always go ultimately to the city, and that he will soon go. This Idea results In sermons that smell of the roar and rush of the city. They are followed with the city oppor tunity and It task. They are colored with the city needs and its sins. He sees no local observation except to preach some sermons that ha expects to use later in hla city church. He reads no books except those that deal wth the city service. Ask him about the problems of his community and be will look at you as COUNTRY CHURCH flow Easy to Select Gifts for the Whole Family, Here!

The Great Whit Way of th city holds him enthralled ana ne aoes noi Know m many of th. isvils of the city are al ready transplanted In bis own locality. With thla attitude Is it any wonder that his farmer folk grow hungry for spiritual food suited to their needs They grow weary of being harrowed with the sins of th city while their boya and girls are going to tbe devil along the similar lan. Is It any' won der they have turned away from the church and the rural- minister? Then the minister, who haa alwaya regarded his charge as a mere stepping atone, and who haa alwaya had an eye and an ear open solely for the call to tho city, be gins to abus them as being hardfisted, miserly and lacking In deair for the fospel. aivas Ston for Bread. They asked for bread ' and he has given them a stone. He has eaten their bread and used hla strength to prepare for the city. Ia it any wonder they have grown tired of this kind of minister? We have talked with hundreds of farm ers In regard to this. They love God and yearn for the service the church could render. Many of them have told th writer: "Send us a man who loves our community and studies its possi bilities and its needs; who will be sym pathetic with us and see our faults and try t help us correct them, and we will furnish the money." Where can you find a minister with ability to undertake this task? There ar a few of them and they are doing good work. They receive good salaries and are doing; a great "service.
