Benevolence and ltlutl’ton, Georgia. reports a second year of success with the Lord‘s Acre plan. begun last, year. when seven members ot‘ the ltlull'ton church agreed to plant. till and harvest. one acre of their land for tiod. 'I'hey charged otl' actual cost. it' any beyond their own labor. and agreed to give to God the rest. whatever it. might. be. So marked was the success of the ï¬rst year that, the season now closing: saw double the acre- age and satisfactory yield. l’astor Melton linds. at the end of the second year of the plan. tour distinct. advantages. Hue. a good yield. not alone troni the one acre set aside for tiod‘s proï¬t. but from all other :icres tilled hy the farmers in spite of rain and pests. Another is the etl'ect upon members of the church who did not. set, aside an acre. They have attended church services more frequently, and have :iien more. .\ third is a solution ot‘ the country church problem. It. is believed that most, of Georgia‘s churches can he saved Hi this way. and vast. sums given to causes beyond. The t'oiirth advantage l’aslor Melton holds to be. greatest. of all. That is a deepenina' ol' the spiritual life of the man who o\\l‘~. plants and tills the acre. gathers the crop and turns it :lito iiod's treasury. "You can readily see." observes the. on.~t~r. “that a, chance must come to a man who has in sight. day :i Lord‘s .\cre. who puts his work upon it. and who cont. niplates its :ain. over a man who has his church in mind oily one day a. month. when preaching: service dates come around." The pastor points out that his plan brings some men '?li'v' to lace with the Lord‘s need every day. whether they work upon the acre every day or not.

The Foundation has just completed a study of the whole problem of child mar- riages which extended into 90 cities and towns. and reports are now twin: issued which discuss the details of the problem and present constructiye proposals for remedying thesituation. According to these reports. the worst conditions exist in small towns and rural districts. First among the remedies proposed by the Foundation’s report. are the passing and enforcement. of a minimum mar- riaeeahle ace law. The report says that this should not be. less than sixteen. whereas in many states. it. is still at twelve. Other proposals are that live -lays‘ notice should be required of intentmn to lllal‘l')‘*-:l requirement now made in eight states ~r-that. the exploitation and commercialization of marriages should be prevented as far as possible. that. combined action or the states should discourage hasty marriages across the state borc'ler. that. the tee. system of marriage licenses should be abolished and licenses issued by salaried ofï¬cials. that. better requirements should he made in proof of age and greater care exercised in the scrutiny of affidavits. andâ€"a very important provisionâ€"that there should be a harmonizing of the different state laws in which a minimum age is required. “The mini- mum marriagcable age." Says the report. “should not be lower than the minimum working age, and the compulsory school at- tendance age should fit into both these others.†1 3 5. 8.
