Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Susquehanna County Survey: By the Interchurch World Movement of North America Certain unusual features marked the Interchurch survey held in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania. In the first place, the survey was requested by local leaders, who also suggested the leadership under which it was put through; in the second place, local church members assisted in financing the survey; thirdly, and possibly as a result of the preceding conditions, the preparation for carrying out the program which was the sequence of the survey has been worked out with exceptional care, unequalled in any other county. After the conference had been called to order in the auditorium of the library, Mr. Cope, Jr., temporary chairman of the committee, welcomed the conference and introduced Rev. Robert R. Ruff, field secretary of the Rural Church Branch of the Interchurch World Movement. Mr. Ruff led in a devotional service and the meeting was then addressed briefly by Dr. Edmund deS. Brunner, director of the Town and Country Division, Interchurch World Movement, on the organization, purpose and program of the Movement. Reports followed from Rev. I. E. Deer, state rural survey supervisor for Pennsylvania, who told of the status of the survey in Pennsylvania, and by Rev. F. E. Cholerton, surveyor of the county. The first step towards the survey was taken in January of 1919 when Francis R. Cope, Jr., approached the Home Missions Council to solicit its good offices in securing a survey of Susquehanna County. Representatives of three of the boards concerned in this county were brought together by the Rural Fields Committee of the Home Missions Council, and through them arrangements were made for taking the survey.
