Excerpt: ...like one well-to-do taxi man, "do not worry," having laid aside a sum of "between $6,000 and $7,000 in two months." And what of the churches? In a good many cases they have been nearly wrecked. During the summer their pews have been filled with wealthy visitors. The resident congregation has been necessarily kept away from services to see that the guests' dinners are properly prepared. Different pastors give different versions of the effect upon their organizations. One pastor sighed and shook his head. "If the summer folks would stay at home," he said, "we might be able to manage the winter ones." On the other hand, a certain Episcopal rector remarked that if it were not for the summer people his church would have to close. In the words of Joseph Lincoln, the summer residents live on the lands about Lake George, and the "natives live on the summer residents." They depend on them not only for their daily bread, but for the support of their churches. On the surface the resort churches seem to be better off financially than those in non-resort communities. A good many churches do not make up their budgets until after the vacation season. Summer guests are, as a rule, regular attendants at services and liberal with their collections. In non-resort communities the churches raise seven-eighths of their funds by subscription. Those in resort centers depend largely on collections, more than a third of their money being raised by this means. The non-resort churches exceed the resort churches in average per capita contribution toward benevolences. The average per capita expenditure is $26.99 fr the resort church and only $21.94 in non-resort churches. Pastors' salaries in resort churches range from...

Some assimilation might be attained on a purely human basis if denominationalism did not run so high and if the Golden Rule were more definitely practiced. Successful inter-racial cooperation has been developed in Middlebury by the Federation of Women's Clubs whose committees take turns visiting in the homes of the foreignborn. Sincerity has won these New Americans. If they desire to learn English, classes are arranged. In the home of one of the town leaders there was a beautiful bowl of flowers on the table. They were the gift of "an Italian friend" of the hostess. She had come with her large family on Sunday afternoon, had talked of current happenings, strolled through the garden, and enjoyed the new records on the phonograph. There are few homes in which such hospitality is to be found. The habit of following the line of least resistance and indifference is too much a matter of course. Especially in rural New England, people need to "thaw out" in their attitude toward their leaders, toward each other, and toward the stranger within their gates. Chapter VII THE PROBLEM OF THE SUMMER RESORT EVERY summer Warren County is host to more than 15,000 visitors. The normal year-round population is doubled. Ten communities, containing about half the rural population of the county, are dependent to some extent upon the summer visitor. The more enterprising communities make great preparations. The stores with their summer stock become quite up-to-date shops. All the business resources are assembled. Some of the people rent rooms or furnish board. Others run automobiles to "any place you want to go." Everywhere, everyone hustles to entertain the "city folks" in the best possible...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Country Church in Colonial Countries: As Illustrated by Addison County, Vt;, Tompkins County, N. Y. And Warren County, N. Y All these studies have been made from the point of view of the church, recognizing, however, that social and economic conditions affect its life. For instance, it is evident that various racial groups influence church life differently. Germans and Swedes usually tend toward liturgical denominations; the Scotch to non-liturgical. Again, if there are economic pressure and heavy debt, the church faces spiritual handicaps and needs a peculiar type of ministry. Because of the importance of social and economic factors in the life of the Church the Opening chapters of this book have been given over to a description of these factors. At the first glance some of these facts may appear irrelevant, but upon closer Observation they will be found to have a bearing upon the main theme - the problem of the Church. Naturally the greatest amount of time and study has been de voted to the churches themselves. Their history, equipment and finances; their members, services and church organizations; their Sunday schools, young people's societies and community programs, have all been carefully investigated and evaluated. Intensive investigation has been limited to the distinctively rural areas and to those centers of population which have less than inhabitants. In the case of towns larger than this an effort has been made to measure the service of such towns to the surrounding countryside, but not to study each church and community in detail.

Download or read book Rural America written by Caroline S. Kelsohn and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2002 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Jefferson once envisioned the United States as a 'nation of yeomen farmers'. Looking around today, however, illustrates that nothing could be further from the truth. In a globalised world and techno-centred society, urban sprawl is overtaking rural America. For over a century, farming was the backbone of the American economy, and though it is still critical to American productivity, many rural areas are plagued by poverty and job reduction. Agricultural issues have a hold over national politics (as in the debates over farm subsidies), but they cannot change several significant trends in America today: the movement toward fewer and larger farms, environmental pressures from urban and suburban interests, and changing food consumption patterns. In order to assist the remaining 'yeomen farmers', a comprehensive and integrated agricultural policy must be initiated to sustain the nation's farming communities. This book analyses the status of the farm industry in rural America, providing a historical context for agriculture and assessing its future for the nation. and the information provided in this book is necessary to understanding the nature of what has historically been a key component of American industry and life.
