Those of us who participate in
beverages, soft or hard, could do
iust as well with one lev- soda a
week, a bottle of beer, a half-pi s!
of “toddy", instead of a pint, etc
This. In money, could range from
tic upward to a dollar.
Instead of riding the bus one
morning, we would aid our health
by walking to work and pass the
15c saved on to the church. Or in
stead of driving everywhere- nv go
irs our private cars, just one oc
casion could be accomplished by
walking, thus saving at least the
15c the bus ride would save.
Most, of us could eliminate one
sweet a week <at home or as a
snack in a store > This would a
mount to about 10c
If we were a bit more careful in
I our work and dress clothes in
keeping them more orderly at
home and ourselves more orderly
on the job. i.e. riot rubbing our
clothes over everything we work
on, wp could save about 20c a
| week in the cleaning and pi ■■
ing bill.
And there are many miscellan
eous things around the house we
could be more careful in using,
thus, saving money in repairs md
rcpliCcnisGU.
For instance, the faucet wash
ers wear out, and have to be re
paired more often In the kitchen
and bath room when we tighten
them too hard, the electirc light
bill is up when lights are on all
over the house and not needed,
when there is no one occupying
that area. Many times cold water
could be used instead of hot wat-.-t
that cost money to heat, the re
frigerator could be more care
fully used in keeping the coid ak
in through thoughtful use of (he
opening and closing of the door.
Preparation of meals would be
much more economical If we wore
frugal in the use of this appli
ance, the fuel bill could be sliced
with more moderate house heat
ing and it would possibly be a treat
to your household to retire an hour j
curlier two nights a week ... it
would make you feel better too,
and. of course there are many,
many more things that you may
think of that would be beneficial!
as well as money saving.
From the things enumerated i
In the home It would be safe to
say a week’s program of the a
bove would give any one of -is an
additional 20c for the church
Involved in the few things dis
cussed In the foregoing thesis is
a savings of approximately $t 25.
This additional amount could
given the church and not, cost
any of us one nickel more
This amount from each nmn-i
ber would eliminate rallies, an-'

A Church with a membership!
of only 200 would be wealthier by I
S‘2so a Sunday or $13,000 a year.
Just think what a church with!
COO members could do with $52,000;
. . . and this amount wouldn't
cost us an extra nickel. Instead,;
we would more closely follow the!
teachings of Christ, who said "If
any nun would come after Me.
let him deny himself and follow
me."
The foregoing is a formula |
! whereby a church congregation
• - ■ Oh ■ .a;i intent uujd
of course, this entails intelligent
.-acrifices) could finance practical
ly any project. And this, proposal
doesn't include the present offer
ing to the church by Us member
i ship.
, To go further into the t,remen-!
dous v. ealth wi control through
congregations: Visualize the a
i mount of money spent, each year'
| by n church of :!00 and ROO mem- 1
be!.-, at the small allowance of S6OOI
;i year by the federal government j
for livin-; purposes alone. Simple!
arithmetic gives $120,000 spent
by a church congregation of 200
and SIOO,OOO a v ar by n church
population of 800 members. This|
r-.ii lot of money . . . and that is!
a minimum.
The Bonus Money program j
.ponsored by The CAROLINIAN;
arid offered the church through!
■ purchase slips from its advertts-!
s would show a. surprising pur- ■
cbiump power each week and j
Bonus Money period it each mem-!
van of every church would save his!
• or her purchase slips and give j
them to the clerk or whoever the;
, respective churches may ap- j
point to handle this program, It!
would surprise each church to!
know what its membership spends
; mid in consequence the wealth of!
,; its membership. With good man- i
i fitiement these many, many col- I
lective dollars could be turned In- 1
to prosperity and security for the ;
i future.
i As far as The CAROLINIAN is
concerned in tire analysis of the
them;, it would gain tremendously.
Tli si the dollar you spend
; with CAROLINIAN advertisers
i would let merchants know their
. ads In your paper is a good in
vestment, and in consequence the
. advertising dollar of the CARO
LINIAN would grow bigger
' through more frequent and larger
i ads.
Second: In order for you to
know where to buy to help vour
. i church earn Bonus Money, you
i j must know first who is advertis
i, ing in The CAROLINIAN.
To know where to buy you must
i . have a CAROLINIAN every week
, us that is the only way to know
; i where to get purchase slips. This
naturally would increase the ctr
• | ouiation of The CAROLINIAN
Increased circulation, multiplies !
. | the advertising dollar. The CAR- •
• I OMNI AN would then be in a bet- j
i j*( ■r position to employ more per
! sonnel and increase its salaries.
Incidentally. present. CARO
LINIAN salaries will double and i
in some cases, more than triple j
j the per capita income of Negroes |
