In recent years nearly all wages and
prices have materially risen except
preachers salaries. The cost of living
has risen. The wages of artisans Of all
kinds have been greatly increased.
Even the salaries Of school teachers
have shown an upward tendency. But
ministers salaries have generally re-
manned stationary. though In many
places they have actually declined. 1t
would not be difficult to find within the
suburbs of New York a church which
demands the entire services of a man
Of high scholarship and devoted life,
and expects him to give such services
and to maintain his family and make
provision for his old age ON wages of
$40 or $12 a week, and which, to cap
the climax, gives an occasional "dona-

Arthur H. Smith, the well-known
American missionary shows in an In
teresting book that this country has
not followed It's missionaries and its
ministers of famine relief with any
deep intellectual or even commercial
understanding of China. 1t is strange
that this nation, at once mercantile and
generous, should have made SO little
effort to understand the Chinese on
their own soil, and should have failed
to heed the plain statement of Ii Hung
Chang that "if Americans want the
trade of China they must come after
It." Our attitude toward China has
been like our attitude toward South
America. American consuls have been
preaching to us for years to learn the
countries to which we ship our goods
Yet no traders are so little at home

investigation. Considered as a Ian

Egyptians, but Psychologists can read
them with such ease that almost anv

read In three or four ways by an equal
number Of rival Psychologists. Any
language more utterly impossible at

headed language could not well ha
imagined, but there are many learned
men who can read, write and sneak

man can make the least sense of the
writings left by the Etruscans. al

characters.
