Preachers Pay on a Business Basis.

The current issue of the Success
contains an excellent article on the
salary OF the preacher and the usual
method of raising it. The writer
takes the position that the church
bazaar and oyster supper plan is
largely responsible for driving men
out OF church while at the same time
the dignity and self-respect OF the
pastor is usually submerged beneath
the avalanche of donations. What
the preacher OF today wants is
straight salary in cash, realized by
equitable subscriptions from the
members OF his congregation. The
sooner the church establishes itself
upon business basis IL it is not al
ready there, the better the church.
There is no more reason Why the
preacher should be an object Of char
ity than should the janitor who
sweeps out the building in which the
word of God is expounded.

clerk in the State bureau, TO have
charge of applications for employ

FOR CLANS

STATE HEALTH BOARD SEEK
ING TO SECURE PROPER
LEGISLATION.
Says Congress Appropriated $40, 900
for Study of Clams-Refused
$4,000 for Children.

DO we love clans more than child
rem? If we did not-why did Con
gress without hesitation, appropriate
$4,000 to pay experts to study CLAIMS
anG almost unanimously turn down
an appropriation of $4,000 to pay an
expert to study children? asks J. N.
Hurry Secretary OF the State Board
of Health in a recent communication.
The clam appropriation was passed
in 1907, and early in 1905 the child
appropriation was killed. In 1905, the
State Board of Health presented to
the Indiana General Assembly. a new
health law, which had for its object
the conservation OF human life. 1t
seemed to the Board that our state
would do we'll TO catch up with other
states, and do like sensible, practical
work along the lines OF preventing
disease and saving lives. When the
bill was up, the member from Po-
dunk arosA and said: 81 have been
requested by my constituents, over
and over TO vote for measures TO pro-
tect hogs from cholera and trees from
scale, but | never have been asked to
and children from preventable dis
eases" OF course the bill was de-
feated as crank bill Had the bill
been for hogs or CLAIMS, it would not
have been cranky. The reason why
the $4,000 clam appropriation passed
like creased lightning, was because
the pearl button makers want clam
shells TO make pearl buttons from.
We cannot make anything but men
and women out Of children, therefore
can't give United States Commission
er Brown any money for such end
it is to be said that Secretary Gar
field heartily endorsed the child APP
pro- riaticn and when he approved
before the Congressional Committee.
a mighty member from Sink-hole
asked Does this not approach dang
erously near the line OF encroachment
upon the rights OF states and mimic
ipalit;es?"
The State Board OF Health viii ask
the coming General Assembly to
pass an up-to-datc health law, TO take
the place OF the old one OF 1891 now
in force. This law will. if passed. re-
duce the sickness and death rates
and in that way save money to the
people and promote their happiness.
Will it pass? 1t certainly will if the
people think that children are worth
as much as CLAIMS.

State Food Commissioner Says Deal
er and Customer Are Pleased
With Rule Barring Water.

The state food and drug commits
sioner, Fl. f. Barnard, believes he
has discovered why the man from the
east never eats oysters twice in the
west. The conclusion is made part OF
his report on the oyster question,
which has been very much agitated
among dealers since the oyster sea-
son opened "Those who have lived
On the Atlantic seaboard and know
the oyster as the delicious bivalve
comes fresh to the table from its ma

Gives an Example.

For example one sample OF oys-
tiers purchased for 35 cents quart
contained 125 grams of oysters and
$40 grams of water; that is, 1912 per
cent, of the sample was water and on
ly 26.ss per cent oyster. This sam
pie contained only 4.67 per cent. solid
matter. Another sample purchased on
the same day contained 91.29 per cent
oysters and $40 per cent liquid and
the total solid matter amounted to
1902 per cent These oysters cost so
cents a quart, but as they contained
4Os times as much solid matter as
the first sample, they would have
been as cheap as that sample if actual
cost had been 407 times 35 cents, or
s1.45 per quart In other words, the
sample which cost 35 cents was 291
dearer than the. apparently costlier
article"

Oysters Grossly Diluted.

The reason stated by Barnard for
his condition is water. THE oysters
offered for sale have been.' says he
rs apparent by our analysis, gross
~ diluted with water and the solid
portion OF the oyster bloated and
swollen, not WITH its own palatable
and nourishing liquors but with
water from melted ice.
1T Is contended by oyster packers
who have been accustomed TO snip
ping iced and watered stock and who
wish 10 continue to do 50. TIA; ice
does not increase the volume u oys-
;ers appreciably, If at all. This con-
tention cannot be correct. for by
comparison OF that percentage OF sol
IDS in the meat is in one instance H.
O6 and in the watered stock 22.O5 per
cent. in favor OF the solid pack and
while the solid pack contains 26.76
per cent of water in the sample, the
watered stock contains $3.50 per
cent"
The pure food commission ruled
that water or ice in oysters consti-
tuted a dilution and would be prose
cuted as a violation OF the law AT
first some objection was made - the
order because of the fact that jobbers
and shippers within the state were
not supplied with sufficient contain
ers suitable for shipping oysters out
Of contact with ice and water The
jobbers have in few weeks time
obtained special shipping cases to
handle their goods properly and the
contention of the cheap retailer is
met by the almost unanimous opinion
OF both the trade and the consumer
that the solid pack oyster, free from
water and ice, is the most economical
to buy and by far the most palatable
