CHURCH CONSIDERS
HIGH LIVING COST
(National Eews Association

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 1s.--The
high cost of living has made necessary
an increase in the salaries of mission.
aries according to the report of the
board of home missions to the Presby'
terian general assembly. A year ago
minimum salary of $500 was secured
but the report says that this is al
ready inadequate for family and pro
poses 5000 as the minimum salary.
That the ministry is not as favored
calling as it was in olden times, was
shown by the report of the committee
on ministerial SUPPLY that where the
church had one candidate for the min
istry to every $4,000 of population in
1880, it now has only one to every
rs, ,000
Farmers sons furnish twenty pei
cent of the candidates for the ministry
and ministers sons are next with ter
per cent.

A post card found in the Los Ange.

Rabies Again

The epidemic of mad dogs has
not been stamped out.
After four months quarantine the
disease has reappeared. The quar-
antine was thought sufficient by the
health authorities and doubtless
would have been effective except
for some accident or a possible new
source of infection from outside the
county.
The majority OF dog owners and
dog lovers took every precaution
they knew of to guard the public
from danger and their own dogs
from infection. But the probabili-
ties are that some muzZle slipped
and some dog became infected en-
tirely without the knowledge of the
dogs owner.
No owner of a dog. whatever may
be his affection for the confiding
collie. the courageous watchdog.
the intelligent setter. or the faith
full ST. Bernard. would place in jeo-
pardy one child's life.
The law has taken its course and
through some accident il has fail
ed
Can not the dog owners put their
dogs into a voluntary quarantine
which will be more stringent, more
efficacious, more careful than the
law itself?
We appeal TO city owners to re-
double their caution, to care for
their dogs comfort and health. and
above all things to safeguard their
children and their children's play
mates until such time as will make
it absolutely certain that their dogs
have not the rabies AND ARE NOT
EXPOSED TO THE DISEASE
FROM DOGS THAT MAY BE AT
FECTED.
IL for no other reason than self
ishness such an action will be the
only one which will ward off an i'm
mediate determination OF ALL
DOGS.
We also appeal to country own
ers of dogs that they do not con-
strue the loose legal phraseology of
the law to mean that the dog shall
be confined to the broad fields and
the homestead but rather to an en-.
closed place.
We suggest that those people
who can do so put their dogs in a
pen.
We suggest that as muzzles can
at the best only keep your dog from
biting some one that the dog be
kept on a leash IN public to pre-
vent him from accidental infection
in scuffling and playing.
We suggest that every dog own
er feed his dog on a simple diet
and see that he is watered during
the muzZling. A man who does not
do this ought not TO have a dog.
Finally we urge that the health
authorities do their duty even il ii
is necessary to appoint deputies
from among the citizens-one in
every block.
FOR NO ONE CARES TO BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR A DEAD
CHILD OR A WOMAN DYING IN
