decrease in the supply of pastors for the

"The churches having the means
should pay their pastors more. 1t is not
to their credit that pastors deserving OF
their confidence and affection should be
subjected to the distraction that accom-
panies insufficient income There are
many able and faithful ministers whose
usefulness is in a measure discounted by
the embarrassment which results from
inadequate salaries ministers, 100, who
are serving churches abundantly able to
pay them enough to free them from this
crushing anxiety, ministers who have

The Crossing of the Red Sea

\ nobleman wanted the painter Ho-
garth to paint his staircase. and selected
as the subject the Crossing by the Israel
ties of the Red Sea. For this he offered
the painter the munifcent sum of two
guineas. To all the world s surprise.
Hogarth accepted the commission, but
stipulated that as it was large piece
of work, the family should leave the
house during the time he was engaged
on it. This. of course was agreed to, but
the work was accomplished in a much
shorter time than was expected, and the
nobeman on his return was surprised
and Mortified to discover that all the art
list had done was to paint the walls
brilliant brick-red He sent for the
painter and asked him what Was the
meaning of the mistake he had made.
''No mistake" said Hogarth: ''your
lordship desired me to paint Pharoah's
overthrow i'm the Red Sea" But where
is Pharoah and where is his host? 2"
''They, of course, are all drowned, was
the reply. but the 1sraelitcs-where
are they. then?' asked the infuriated
nobleman "rhe Israelites. was the
calm reply, ''the Israelites have safely
crossed over. Pay me my two guineas.
for you will never find anyone to do it
better for the price
The Jewish outlook., 1907-10-18
Ministers Salaries

nal, The Intelligencer, the subject of
ministers salaries is discussed as fol
lows
There are many pastors of churches
in the United States who are overworked
and underpaid. Some weak, struggling
churches cannot pay more than they do,
and other stronger churches do not pay
as much as they ought. Taking these
two classes of churches and striking an
average it will be found that the minis
ters salary is small. The large salaries
the strong and rich churches pay may
bring the average up to a figure consid-
cred quite respectable. Yet it is small
compared with the wages skilled work
men receive. or the compensation in
other professions.
1--WE put in Il plea for ministerial
support, not only on the ground that of
all men in the professions and trades
ministers are very much underpaid, but
also for the reason that in recent years
the cost of living has perceptibly in
creased. According to the statistics of
the government labor bureau, the in
crease in the cost of living during the
ten years from 1890 to 1900 amounted
10 about twenty-five per cent. and this
increase has continued to the present
time. The salaried classes are especially
affected by it. AS IL rule. their salaries
have not increased with the increase in
the cost of living, while the wages of the
laboring classes are considerably higher
than ten or fifteen years ago
1T needs To be borne in mind that
during this period the United States has
enjoyed uneXampled prosperity. and
men in business who. for the most part
we feel warranted i'm assuming are con-
nected with the churches. have been
growing richer and richer. i'm not few
eases doubling and quadrupling their
fortunes 1t is manifestly most just that
ministers as well as others on salary
should share in their prosperity: should
at least receive proportionately as much
as they did decade or SO ago. or twen-
ty-fve per cent. more than they were
then receiving, to cover the extra cost of
living. The fact is ministers are actually
receiving less than they did, while
church members are contributing less per
capita
Figures are given to prove the fore
going statement. and the article con-
tines:
Undoubtedly inadequate salaries.
