The Last Accusation.

The last thing the automobile is accused of is that it is responsible for the decline of the country church. In Kansas it is declared that “about 1,000 country churches in Kansas have been deserted because of lack of interest in church work.” People in the country ride in their autos into the city to hear the great men. At the same time, it is charged that the city people leave the city churches on Sunday for a ride in the country. But has the preaching aught to do with it? Or does the condition of hearts have any effect on church attendance?
