Ms*By Peter Radford Lecturer National Farmers’ Union.The church, the press and the school

form a triple alliance of progress that guides the destiny of every commun­ity, state and nation. Without them civilization 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 social triumvirate for their uplifting influence, and on behalf of the American plowmen I want to thank those engaged in these high calling for their able and efficient service, and I shall offer to the press a series of articles on co-operation between these important influences and the farmers in the hope of in­creasing the efficiency of all by mu­tual understanding and organized ef­fort We will take up, first, the rural church.The Farmers Are Great Church Build-

V

ers.BE WI-SE.The American farmer is the greatest

church builder the world has ever known. He is the custodian 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 cit­izenship.

The farmers of this nation have built 120,008 churches at a cost of $750,000,000, and the annual contribu­tion of the nation toward all church institutions approximates $200,000,000 per annum. The farmers of the Uni­ted 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 reside 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 nature.

The Functions of a Rural Church.If the rural churches today are go­

ing to render a service which this age demands, there must be co-operation between the religious, social and eco­nomic life of the community.

The church to attain its fullest meas­ure of success must enrich 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 the 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 religion, one we can live by and farm by, as well as die by.

Fewer and Better Churches.T~" Blessed Is that rural community

H which has but one place of worship.H While competition is the life of trade,I it is death to the rural church and

Bt moral starvation to the community. Petty sectarianism is a scourge that blights the life, and the church preju- dico saps the vitality, of many com- juunities. An over-churched commun-

is a crime against religion, a seri- handicap to society and a useless

ax upon agriculture.I While denominations are essential lid church pride commendable, the [igh teaching of universal Christianity lust prevail if the rural church is to llfill its mission to agriculture.Iwe frequently have three or four

Burches in a community which is not to adequately support one. Small ;regations attend services once a th and all fail to perform the re­lus functions of the community, ïdivision of religious forces and leaking into fragments of moral A is ofttimes little less than a Bv and defeats the very purpose
