IAMBS OdilMTf HttJUUL MASJUtt.* THE RURAL CHURCH Co-operation of Church, School and Press Essential to Community Building. By Peter Radford. Lecturer Nath*ual Farmer*’ Union. The church, the press and the school form a tripple alliance of progress that guides the destiny of every community, state and nation. Without them civiliza tion would wither and die and through them life may attain its greatest blessing, power and knowledge. The farmers of this nation are greatly indebted to this iccial triumvirate for its uplifting influence, and on half of the American plowmen I want to thank those engaged in these high callings for their able and efficient service, and I shall offer to the press a series of articles on co-operation between theae important influences and the farmers in the hope of in creasing the efficiency of all by mutual understanding and or ganized effort. We will take up first, the rural church. The Farmers Are Great Church Builders. The American farmer is the greatest church builder the world has ever known. He is the cus todian of the nation’s morality; upon his shoulders rests the "ark of the covenant” and he is more responsive to religious influences than any other class of citizen ship. The farmers of this nation have built 120.000 churches at a cost of $750,000,000, and the an nual contribution of the nation toward all church institutions approximates .S2< >0,000,000 per annum. The fanners of the Unit ed States build 22 churches per day. There are 20,000.000 rural church communicants on the farm, and 54 per cent of the total membership of all churches re side in the country. The farm is the power-house of all progress and the birthplace of all that is noble. The Garden of Eden was in the country and the man who would get close to God must first get close to na ture. The Functions of a Rural Church. If the rural churches today are going to render a service which this age demands, there must be co-operation between the reli gious, social and economic life of the community. The church to attain its fullest measure of success must enric li the lives of the people in the community it serves; it must build character; develop thought and increase the efficiency of human life. It must serve the social, business and intellectual, as well as ti e spiritual and moral side of life. If religion does not make a man more capable, more useful and more just, what good is it? We want a practical re ligion, one we can live by and farm by, as well as die by. Fewer and Better Churches. Blessed is that rural community which has but one place of wor ship. While competition is the life of trade, it is death to the rural church and moral starvation to the community. Petty secta rianism is a scourge that blights the life, and church prejudice saps the vitality of many com munities. An over-churched community is a crime against religion, a serious handicap to society and a useless tax upon agriculture. While denominations, are es sential and church pride com mendable, the high teaching ot universal Christianity must pre vail if the rural church is to ful fill its .mission to agriculture. We frequently have three or four churches m a community which is not able to adequately support one. Small congrega tions attend services once a month and all fail to perform the religious functions of the community. The division of re ligious forces and the breaking into fragments of moral effort is ofttimes little less than a ca lamity and defeats the very PUP pose they seek (e prompt* To Keep On In the Old Way. A fond lather who had an unexpect ed windfall and wanted to do some thing extra for his son and heir went into a hardware store and inquired the price of bath tuos for babies. He was shown several, and finally select ed the only one which he thought enough for his little paragon. “That” •aid the salesman, “will cost you 15.T5.” “Gee Wlliklnm!” exclaimed the man. “Well, it that's so I guess we'll have to go on washing the hid la the ooal •cuttle ” RATION’S LABOR PROBLEM Over a million and a Half Wo men Work as Farm Hands in the United States. •y Peter Radford etiirpr Nation*] Farwr' Union. Our goverment never faced so tremendous a problem as that now lying dormant at the doors of Congress and the legislatures, and which, when aroused, will shake this nation from center to circumference, and make civiliza tion hide its face in shame. That problem is- women in the field. The last Federal census reports shuw we now nave 1,514,0X1 women working in the field, most of them south of the Ma son and Dixon line. There were approximately a million negro slaves working in the fields when liberated by the emancipation proclamation. We have freed our slaves and our women have taken their places in bondage. We have broken the shackles off the negroes and welded them upon our daughters. The Chain-Gang of Civilization. A million women in bondage in the southern fields form the chain-gang of civilization—the industrial tragedy of the age. There is no overseer quite so cruel as that of unrestrained greed, no whip that stings like the lash of suborned destiny, and no auctioneer’s block quite so revolting as that of organized avarice. The president of the United States was recently lauded by the press, and very properly so, for suggesting mediation between the engineers and railroad managers in adjusting their schedule of time and pay. The engineers threatened to strike if their wages were not increased from approx imately ten to eleven dollars per day and service reduced from ten to eight hours and a similar read justment of the overtime sched ule. Our women are working in the field, many of them barefoot ed, for less than 50 cents per day, and their schedule is the ris ing sun and the evening star, and after the day’s work is over th*v milk the cows, slop the hogs and rock the baby to sleep. Is anyone mediating over their problems, and to whom shall they threaten a strike? Congress has listened approv- ] iiglv to those who toil at the! forge and behind the counter, and! many of our statesmen have smiled at the threats and have fanned j the flame of unrest among indus-1 trial laborers. But women are as surely the final victims of indus- j dustrial warfare as they are the burden-bearers in the war be tween nations, and those who ar bitrate and mediate the differ ences between capital and labor should, not forget that when the expenses of any industry are un- j necessarily increased, society j foots the 'bill by drafting anew. consignment of women from the home to the field. Pinch No Crumb From Women’s Crust of Bread. No financial award can be made without someone footing the bill,: and we commend to those whoj accept the responsibility of the distribution of industrial justice, the still small voice of the woman in the field as she pleads for mercy, and we beg that they pinch no crumb from her crust of bread or put another patch up on her ragged garments. We beg that they listen to the scream of horror from the eagle on every American dollar that is wrung from the brow of toiling women and hear the Goddess of Justice hiss at a verdict that in creases the want of woman to satisfy the greed of man. The women behind the counter and in the factory cry aloud for sympathy and the press thunders out in their defense and the pul pit pleads for mercy, but how about the woman in the field ? Will not these powerful expon ents of human rights turn their talent, energy and influence to her relief? Will the Goddess of Liberty enthroned at Washing- Use Bellow* to Skin Goat*.
