There is no way of knowing the native born popula- tion in 1917. Our comparison must consequently be con- fined to the period from 1890 to 1910. The question is raised here whether the Protestant church membership during these twenty years has increased as rapidly as the native born of native parents. Let us see. In 1890, the population, fifteen years of age and over, that was native born of native parents, amounted, ac- cording to the United States census, to 13, 809. The na- tive born of nati...ve parents in 1910 in the city are given at 27, 158. The increase for this twenty-year period is almost 100 per cent. During the same period, the Prot- estant church membership, according to the table prev- iously given in this chapter, increased 111 per cent. While it was admitted that the Protestant member- ship included also a part of the native born of foreign or mixed parents, and it would seem a small part of the foreign born, nevertheless, the above comparison would indicate that as far as the native born of native parents are concerned, who make up the greater part of the Protestant strength, the Protestant churches have kept pace in their membership with the increase in number in this element during the period from 1890 to 1910.
