stock objection to this society which is 50 much
harped upon in these days that to aid you ng
men in seminary and college tends to pauper-
ize the ministry; that it gives such young men
as are helped crutch which they do not need
and takes away from them Independence and
manlness Of character.
We do not believe this. If the society
furnishes crutch it is a crutch which makes
all the difference with many young men be-
tween reaching the ministry and not reaching
it, and crutch too that is taken away as soon
as the young minister is ready for his life
work.
There is only one alienation. Either we
must help our young men into the ministry or
we must pay them more than enough to keep
body and soul together after they get into the
ministry. If the churches of Maine guarantee
all their ministers a good living salary, say
$1,000 year in the country, then we can dis
pense with this society, for our young men
will then have some prospect OF paying In
after life the debts contracted in obtaining an
education.
For my part 1 should prefer this, that our
young men should fight their way through to
an education and pay for it Afterwards, II
there was any reasonable certainty that tn ey
could pay for it afterward. But il the churcnes
persist in paying their missionaries such m can
salaries as absolutely forbid such payment, the
only thing for them to do is to help the candi-
date for the ministry at the outset. IS
So long as the average salary of the Maine.
Home Missionary, as we heard this morning,
is only $3.50 per year let us not begrudge the
pittance of 500 year to the worthy student
who is gaining an education. q 8.
This fhelp does not necessarily foster I'M
worthy and inefficient men. 1t is the duty of
our seminary and college officials to see that it
never does. tits not our duty as representa-
tives of the churches to look out for that mat
ter. 1t is our business to see that the treasury
is not empty SO that the worthy may not go
unaided.
With this brief appeal leave the matter,
brethren and pastors in your generous hands.

stories go that he went in Philadelphia to buy
a suit of clothes, and the tailor charged him
$3.50, when to clothe an rdinary man would
require only $50; that he can't stand erect in a
railroad car and suffers great discomfort and
pain in travelling; he cannot ride in the
ordinary hack and that either the top must
be taken out altogether, else the carriage
must be An open one; that metropolitan land
lord took him to board at one hundred and
