A current report OF the bureau or
the census, relative TO the salaries or
ministers, say that the average an.
nual salary OF the American preacher
is 1868. That's about $3.50 per day.
or course, there are many preach
ers in big cities who get fancy salaries
$4,000 year or more. Hence, to
bring the average down to 1868 a
year, there must necessarily be a le
gion OF preachers who get much less
than $50 a day.

A PROBLEM IN EDUCATION

Tim Durfee carried the bod and

He sent his son to school that he
might learn the "figgerin'" for want
of which Tim himself had never got
farther than the hod that he might
become a clean, honest workman, VINO
never sighted his Job nor spent his
wages in drink.
When the little chap" grown big

to Tim little longer wait, hardeT
work, more hours OF toll, more pTiyG'
tion that the boy" might not be put
to shame among his mates.

cred giving up the ministry because
of low salaries.
Perhaps, after all. the world pays
for deeds rather than words. The
preachers might experiment along
this line. Instead OF worrying their
heads about two new sermons for
every Sunday, let them read the Ser
mon on The Mount 10 their flocks
more often and devote the time thus
saved to considering the child labor
question or the bearing of working
girls wages on morals. Let them
forsake evidences OF Christianity"
for evidences of Hypocrisy, as set
forth by the tax duplicates. wherein
appears the names OF many OF their
parishloners as owners OF property
rented and used for immoral purposes.
Bu thus getting down to the bed
rock Of practical Christianity, the
Christian ministry as a whole would
become a far more mighty power for
social bettermeHt than II now is. Tins
