Preachers Pay.

a census report published only a few
days ago shows that the average salary
paid to clergymen in this country is
about $780, Two years ago the aver
age income of Presbyterian preachers
was only $500, SO that the pay of the
clergy seems to have increased at the
rate of $40 per year since 1908 a week
ly raise of about So cents each year.
Wonder is often expressed that in
these days so few young men are gein g
into ministry Union Theological Semi
nary notes the falling away of students.
So do the Episcopalian Institutions.
The large universities have very few
prospective ministers on their lists, the
great proportion of theological students
coming from the little colleges in the
west-colleges whose names are rarely
mentioned.
Almost any trade offers larger in
ducements, in the way of earnings
than the ministry, and, besides. the
clergyman has to go through long years
of preparatory education. If there were
no other incentive than money for men
to go into the ministry, very few would
take up this profession.-Newark News.

Good Roads and Sound Health.

There is nothing dry or uninterest
ing about the good roads movement
Its appeal is to everyone. Its call is
received alike by the pedestrian, the
farmer whe carts truck to the railway
station, the driver of a good road horse,
and by those who ride in automobiles.
There is much poetry in the good
road across country as in the bypaths
through the woods or the steep path
that leads to grazing uplands.
Road improvement has also its
economic side through its appeal to
summer tourists. Governor Quinby, of
New Hampshire, estimates that sum-
nner visitors last year expended $14,-
100000 in that state and bases his
confidence that they will leave a larger
amount behind them during the COM
ing summer upon the Improvement
that has been made upon the high
ways. For example, in 1908 it was
necessary to haul automobiles through
a steep portion of the famous Craw-
ford Notch, whereas now these ma
chimes can make the ascent under their
ed in that state three trunk roads at
cost of more than 81. 500, 900. They
have been laid out with an eye both
for the convenience of local commune
ties and for the qualification of the
tourist Along these roads many
places of vantage, where the passing
visitor may halt to look back upon the
"steepness overcome" and the wonder

gered the Egyptians who are striy,

discover where he is and whithe
he is going; what he represents ant
