have often wished that great fem
mine fetish, innocence, be killed once
for all. Don't confound innocence,
which merely means lack of knowl-
edge, with purity, which means clean
mind and heart as well as a clean
body.
MANY good people believe if
woman is clean physically and limo
cent mentally she is above reproach.
No. Being innocent she lacks the
knowledge of what constitutes pur-
ity.
81 once went to a clergyman to try
to get home for a girl with one of
his parishioners. The girl worked in
lawyers Office with only her limo
cence as a shield, when she should
have had vigilance, shreWdness, di-
plOmacy and will power. 1 would
rather see the mark of these in a
girls face than the vacuous pretti-
ness Of innocence.
THE clergyman advised me to put
her in a home for such as she until
her child was born.
That's just what don't want to
do 1 answered. I don't want her
purity of mind spoiled by some per
niciOus influence
HE threw up his hands in horror.
My dear young woman, you do not
seem to know you cannot have purity
when innocence has vanished and
certainly you cannot say this girls
mind is pure when she is about to
reap the consequences of her sin
My little friends mind is as, pure
as that of your own wife answer

loves you. The blame for her fall
should be put upon innocence, the
loss of which you deplore.'

He had become interested in the debate ON
Foreign Missions, and was, apparently, sur
prised by the statements made by the Boards
as to the cost of living in the East.
He had spent eight months in the Phil
ippines, some 500 miles from Shanghai,
China.
Most of the soldier food had been shipped
to the Islands from China, therefore costing
more than in China itself.
This Georgia soldier states that their ration
allowance was about 4 cents day, and that
they live like kings on it"
Doesn't that statement corroborate those of
Emma Lester, Clarence Poe, Lafcadio Hearn,
and the official publications Of the Boards
themselves?
Haven't the Boards been telling the people
that Chinese laborer supported himself ON
5 cents day; native pastor and family,
500 year; and student In the boarding
school, on 500?
Why this change Of front? Why this
somersault?
It has not been long since our foreign mis-
sionary, Dr. t. w. Ayers, was writing to
The Inder, admitting that they do employ
several house-servants to relieve the mis-
sionary wives and daughters of all household
drudgery.
DR., Ayers coolly defended this luxurious
living upon the ground that it was necessary
to live in that grand style, else the Chinese
would not respect them.
Bishop Frank w. Warner did the same
thing, in The Christian Herazd New York
City, April Is, 1914
This missionary Bishop wrote: "It is the
custom of India to have servants and caste
distinctions, making it necessary to have
several (servants) but they (the seueroz) do
not cost any more than one servant at home"
All! Gives it away, you see. Why is it
that the missionary can hire and feed several
servants, in the East, Oh the cost of one, at
home?
Answer it, Dr. Smith!
If Eastern servants can be hired and fed
so much cheaper than servants here at home.
what is it that makes the difference?
And why is it that the selfish foreign mis-
sionary is the only man in the East who re-
fuses to allow his salary to be placed on a
level with the actual prices of the East?
The soldier, risking his life and, if need
be, shedding his blood, is put on a ration
which is consistent with current prices and
the soldier gets cents day, living ''like
king on it,"
But the forei On missionary with his eight
children, must have $24O0 year, and man
sion rent-free to inhabit, and a vacation of
three months, on full pay
With fine, superciIious arrogance, the
missionary Bishop, Frank Warner, asked, in
The Christian Herazd
"Does the church send women, married or
unmarried, to the n-Christian world to
spend their time peezing potatoes, acashieg
dishes, and busting houses?"
My how proud and naughty and con-
temptuous this foreign missionary is, to be
sure.
No peeling of potatoes for has wife. Mine
and yours do it, but his won't.

Uncle Z. E. w.

4 CAREFUL analysis of Brother Smiths
efforts to come down to 'brass tacks",
on the mission SYSTEM as nO90 aU0rhed, shows
the following points.
CD He denies that missionaries are paid
more than the comfortable cost of living. and
that they have an easy, luxurious time, ac-
cumulating property, etc.
90 He Indignantly scouts the allegation
that missionaries own horses, vehicles, bi-
cycles. motor cycles, automobiles. aero-planes.
air-ships, ETC. He stoutly maintains that mis-
sionary ocomotiOn is limited to walking, to
riding wheelbarrow, and to lolling in a litter
(Shentze) fastened to the head of one mule
and to the tail of another-the travelling
missionary being perambulating human

(3) Brother Smith says that there are
thousands" of self-supporting mission
schools and churches in the foreign field
Specifically, he alleges that there are
'thous0nds" of such schools and "th0usapds"
of such churches.
(4) Brother Smith bitterly denies that
foreign missionaries are objects of scorn and
derisiOn to impartial travellers; and in
proof of his view, he cites such glObe-trOtting
political Founders as Taft, Roosevelt and
Bryan.
Brother Smith deplores my ''rhetoric', say
ing that there are 'tons" of it, Tons of
rhetoric for as small paper as The Jeffer-
sonian, are surely an overload of rhetoric; and
for fear that Brother Smiths criticism may
have some merit, | am going to do my best
to confine this article to brass tacks, avoiding
rhetoric. ] trust Brother Smith will appre-
ciate my honest effort to comply with his
wishes, and will enjoy my brass tacks.

lished statements, that the salaries paid for
eign missionaries were based upon the actual
cost of living
Dr.. Smith defended the baby bounty on
the score Of ''economy' and both Drs Smith
and Graham made the astounding assertion
that the foreign missionaries could not live
on the native food-stuffs of the countries in
which they were located but had to import
their provisions from the United States!
Both Of these Doctors of Divinity stand be-
fore the country committed to those prepos-
ferrous propositions.
DR.. Smith first published them in The
I1adeu, and then DR.. Graham published a
pamphlet to the same effect-and DR.. Smith
endorsed the pamphlet. So there you are.
Brother Smith-whose dislike of rhetoric
| am determined to respect-actually went
before the country with the assertion that
500 a year. for the first 10 years of the life
of a missionary child, was an extra allowance
justly contributed by the Board to the child's
''education.'
One thousand dollars!

And DR.. Graham, in his amazing pamph-
let, says that "the largest number of children
any one missionary has in the employment Of
the Board is eight.
My Lord! How many more did he need?
DR.. Taylor admits that the yearly salary of
a missionary with eight children is 50 400,
And yet DR.. Smith says that missionary
cannot afford a buggy, or a carriage or
motorcycle, much less an automobile The
best the poor fellow can do is, to pile his
plumber on the top of wheelbarrow, sur
round himself with his wife and children,
and let two husky heather tote him from one
moral vineyard to another.
Brothers Smith and Graham both vehem-
emily contended that our missionaries could
not live on the food products of China,
Japan, etc,
What are those foods? Practically the
same as Ours. The main difference is, IN the
cray they cooh 1t.
Europeans going to the East can do one
of two things, with perfect safety: they can
accustom themselves to the native method of
preparing the food, or they can prepare it
the European way.
Every sane man knows that this is literally
true.
In the Philippines, in Japan, in China,
Korea, and India, the food-stuffs take much
the same range they do with us.

Fife Myers told how she raised tomatoes, Hattie May Myers gave talk on poultry raising, and the members of the Sunflower Club (children too young to belong to the regular clubs) each recited short flower verse. Miss Wilson took up the subject of school lunches. She said that the best lunch for the child is milk. and bread and preserves. MT. Jernigan showed the boys how to judge corn, and spoke briefly on the corn and pig club work. Miss Allen also made a very good talk on club work. The Ladies' Auxiliary served delicious lunch to the agents and club members. One feature of the meeting was display of sewing, can hing and cooking done by members of the various Geyer Spring Clubs.
