NECROnS* LIVES SHORTER
. According to a recent reloa-e o
the Bureau of Census, colored pep
pie do not live as long as whit
people, dying faster. It seem
that the first year of life is tli
period where the greatest . num
ber of Negroes die in compariso
with the whites. ' Out?of 1<H> <><?

readily concluded that the economic
conditions, more than anything
else, account for the great difference,
not overlooking the fact that
ignorance is a powerful contributing
factor. If that he the case,

will result in his living longer and

Dear Dy namo: I wan I to", ort
ganize my church for greater Effectiveness.
How would you suggest
that I do this? I want ev- '
' eryhody to work in his circle.
. Answer thru Kampbellgrams. For
1 ef.fctiveness, I suggest that you
divide your membership into three .
' sections, areas, or division's . or
groups as follows: The children I
' division, up to 12 years old. Or- I
' gamzo them into clubs with their '
' own little officers with an adult
5 over them as sponsor or advisor
" or councelor. All who can sing,
1 have a children choir, and at one
f of your services, l.-t them sing a"
s number. Have them to report
1 each week or month on a separate
>jtable. Let one of their number
> take up the money,
i The second division would con
sjst of all from 13 years old thru
' 23. This is your young people de- ,
; vision. Organize them as? above
state, only assign a definite task
'lor them to do each week or month
I Let them have a whole, {lay and
vou nroach on flint rlnv fn tV-nm
!! moat, with theni and show them
' | how -to do. Pick out the more a 111
vanced ones nnd train them for '
; officers.
Your third group, from 25 up to
969 (so Methusalah can come).

HE PALMETTO LEADER
This is your Adult division and
they can be organized into different
clubs and report weekly or
monthly." I suggest that you name
your clubs in memory of some deceased
member. Give everybody g
in the church 3 placd on some" club 'o
under a leader When any one r
join the church find out what they
can do and assign them a place, t
This is an age of participation. %
This is what I think will help you li
no little to have a more effective
church. t.
