Suggestions As To Church Financing The following letter from W. R. Reid, o f Garfield, represents the ideas of an experienced busi ness man, on the question of church support and finances. Mr. Reid’s suggestions a r e right, except that he is overlook ing the ever present obstacle of getting someone or more inter ested church members, to do the soliciting. Soliciting f o r any work is disagreeable, but the ob taining o f church funds is a little harder and unthanked for job, than any. easier and better. Suppose e- nough people sign a Bankable Bond to secure the payment of $1200.00 in twelve months at the rate o f $100.00 per month, each bond man to mark the amount opposite his signature that he is willing to secure. The Bond is placed in the bank, then the church finance committee would send out a subscription paper and solicit from all who are interest ed in church work, the amount paid in on subscription to be turned into the bank to pay off the bonds, the deficit if any to be paid by the bond men. My plan is to have all church bills paid each month at the bank. W. R. Reid” “ Pear Editor:— Pardon me if I “ butt in” on church talk.
