Critics of missions, who delight in
saying that lit takes dollar to carry
a cent" to the bepeficiaries Of these
organizations, are conclusively refuted
by facts given in connection with the
missions of the Methodist Epis-
copal church. During the church year
1878 this body expended in the for
eign and domestic mission fields about
twelve hundred thousand dollars. The
Salaries of missionary bishops, secre-
taries, and so FORTH" together with the
office and incidental expenses" took
just six and half cents out Of each
dollar given to be expended in mission
work. The children Of this world
may be wiser in their generation than
the children of light" at least the
critics think so; but the fact remains
that a business corporation which
could keep its cost of administration
within seven per cent OF its total ex-
penditure would feel that it exhibited
very commendable worldly skill.
