It is not unusual, however, to have traveling evangelists, in co- operation with a local group, erect a tent on the edge of the village. In some instances a sound truck has been driven throughout the villages calling the residents to "come to the tent tonight and join in with the old fash- ioned singing and the old fashioned religion. " In various localities churches have established their own cemeteries which are usually located in the back of the churches. In 32 mill villages, however, specia...l ceme- teries have been provided by the management where employees of the mills and members of their families may be buried. The burial lots are free in 24 of the 32 mills, and six mills reported that they spent a total of $1, 600 a year in the upkeep of their cemeteries.
