, and other organizations. But in the \ country, the Church is in a special degree respon- 1 sible for the supply of a social meeting-place for I men. In a masterful way the Church must at least/ inspire the social instincts of the men and boys. If these social instincts are allowed to find expression without the inspiration of the Church, they will re- sult in groups of loafers, social cliques, or a mul- tiplicity of secret orders. Such things may exist in the city without any marked effect on... the social life. ;[6o] INSTITUTIONAL METHODS Life in the city is composed of many classes and circles within circles. But, in the country, social life is a unit. When the country community is com- posed of cliques and groups and independent asso- ciations, the whole fabric of rural society is injured. The preference men have for association with men is a fact which should not be overlooked in the study of the problems of the Church and society. The lodge-room, the club, the saloon, and the "corner grocery" have their peculiar fascination for men because there they find a company of men.
