THE PASTORS SALARY

There is scarcely minister in Am
erica whose salary is at all common
surate with his work. Most of them
are paid a beggarly pittance as COM
pared with the work of the men in
the shipyards or in other Ines of n
dustral activity There are but few
churches in this country that are deal
ing fairly and honestly by Their pas
tors, for most of them are paying
salaries far below the value of the
work that is done. This limitation of
salaries makes it impossible for min
listers to subscribe for many publca-
tions other than those directly of a
religious character. They cannot
therefore keep their reading table of
libraries supplied with publications of
national CIRCULATION, and that way
would be a gracious act, and one
which would be worth many times it's
cost, if individual church members or
the boards of trustees would make up
list of few of the best papers of
national power and influence and at
the church's expense furnish them
regularly to their pasors.
How few of the pastors of the
smaller country churches for instance,
ever have the opportunity of reading
any of the daily papers except those
in their own village. And how few
of them have an opportunity to read
many if any of the best publications
which in tbs world war are discuss
ing every phase of it from an infinite
ly broader standpoint than most of
the religious papers in the land.

d. c., few days ago. when l first
conceived the idea Of this work,
spent what money l had in obtaining
charter and establishing an office in
Huntington w Va, and started out on
a tour of the State to see if | could
get the support of some of our citizens
and raise funds with which to operate
the Society. | visited more than a
dozen of our cities and interviewed
many men Of wealth and influence, but
my plea met with a cold reception. By
the time | reached Elkins | was very
much disheartened. However, / had
heard great deal of the Elkins family
and of their giving to charity so l ask
ed the pastor Of one of the churches
Stephen B. Elkins and he assured me
that if l would call on her she would
see me. lost no time in going to her
home, a beautiful home overlooking
the city of Elkins. / was embarrassed

told him my name and that l was the
founder of the Prisoners Relief So
ciety. He went into the house, and in
a few moments Mrs. Elkins appeared
in the doorway. She greeted me very
graciously and asked me to have a
seat on the porch where it was cool.
She had already heard of the Society,
and when l explained my plans to her
in detail, heartily endorsed them, and
made a liberal donation. This was the
| first encouragement had met with on
| my trip, and it certainly was RESPONSE
BILE to a large extent for the success
of the Society"
The Prisoners Relief Society is now

throughout the county; securing suit
