..eased in nearly all occupations and
salaries were enlarged in the profess
,o,s save in that of teachers and min
E,otars. The cost of living has largely
:ncreased, and the salaries of ministers
18th very few exceptions, have not been
Increased.
Probably the Presbyterian Church
compares most favorably with any
ether Church in the support of the min
istry, yet the average salary given her
ministers is not more than sufficient to
make both ends meet. The result is
that many of our best young men, tempt
cd by more lucrative positions else
where, enter into other callings and are
lost to the ministry.
Another influence of a depressing
kind was that in 1906 the so-called
higher criticism reached it's high tide.
In the publication of '"The Encyclopedia
Biblica" of Prof. Cheyne, and the "Poly-
chrome Bible" by Prof. Haupt, the
extreme point was reached in the
rationalistic treatment of the sacred
Scriptures, accompanied by the re-
lection of the supernatural, and
the denial of the inspiration, of the
atonement and the divinity of our Lord
in 1897, Prof Driver claimed the gen.
eral acceptance of modern scholarship
Of the results of this criticism. Since
then the influence of higher criticism
has been on the wane. But it was
widely felt, coming from the. pulpit,
and still more from the popular liter
AZURE of the world. The foundations
OF the gospel were shaken, and young
men could have no purpose in studying
for the ministry. In large sections
OF America and abroad, the preaching
OF the pulpit was weakened, lost
authority, and unsettled the faith of
young men.
