The Seattle star. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1899-1947, 1919-04-03

A lady writes me that she has been for
number of years a constant reader of my
and would like to ask some
questions. She propounds the following:
Why is there so much money spent on
beautiful churches, and the same not used
for better dwelling places where people
must live seven days of the week?
Why are not all buildings and structures
of all kinds in our cities not painted, as
they are not only sore to the artistic eye,
but terrible menace to the health of all
peoples?
Why is not the money and time that
is spent in cures for diseases used to pre-
vent them?
Does science know If there is any diff
ference between the blood of the human
species and the animals?
Why will man protect woman against
every other man but-himself?
Why is the word pretty" so msused?
Pretty difficult, much, bad, and so on?
Do we suffer most from the things we
don't think about?
Why is there so mach talk about personal
liberty, when liberty, getting away from all
order and sense, passes into the harshest
and bitterest form of slavery?
Who is to blame, the "tempter," or the
tempted?
What is the end of all education?
Why is it, whether we want TO OF not,
believe it or not, the fact remains that we
cast an influence for good or evil, physical
ly, mentally and spiritually?
OF course, / can answer these questions.
] can answer any question in the world.
] may not be able to answer them right,
but ! can answer them.

The Preachers Fay

The average salary for preachers in IL leading de-
nominations is STA year.
That's S2.1a day.
The average preacher is married. Most of them are
raising children feeding them, clothing them, buying med
cine for them and sending them TO school
The average preacher works seven days week
He must wear good clothes his wife must dress well
and his children cannot appear in battered and torn
His congregation insists that the preacher and his
family display signs OF poverty, and the
preacher must smile-aways. lie must have a
CHEEKY word for every woman and child he meets
He must not complain. $50
Once in a while preacher quits the pulpit and takes
another io-one which will leave something in his pay
envelope after taking out the tolls OF butcher candestck
maker and the baker Then his congregation speaks of
.his fall from grace" and he is branded outcast.
When he's not preaching and praying he is visiting
the sick helpless the aged and the backslder Aside
from these duties he has nothing else beyond attending to
the soca the half dozen church societies. the
boys and girls: the Sunday school, the choir: soliciting
money for new church roof collecting for home and
foreign missions; buryng and marrying US baptzng

the hire

Questions

But usually the propounder of questions
does not expect an answer, and would not
be satisfied with one. Most questions are
like prayers used to be in the old-fashioned
meeting, not really intended as requests,
but to give the Lord information.
Instead of answering these questions. l
would like to add few myself. For
instance:
Why are we united in war, but straight
way divided as soon as we come to make
peace?
What literary genius composes the read
ing matter for theatre programs?
How is one to keep on good terms with
the janitor?
Why does it take a woman so long to
dress?

Life Is an Art
by THE REV. CHARLES STEELE

Life isn't science. it's an art. Science may be
taught, but art must be learned by practice.
Science deals with formulas and statistics and other
exact things and our teachers have way OF saying
the final word about it-but art can never be re-
duced TO finished product that we'd feel justi.
fled In saying. We'll that's the way the thing must
always be done"
The most that art do for you IL to give you a
good start-it lay down certain Fundamental
principles but you've got TO learn how apply them
And no two people ever apply them in exactly the
same way. That's why there people exactly
alike in any way.
This also accounts for the fact that we are SO
Interesting to each other III we were all alike we'd
all seem horribly stupid TO each other.
If this makes life harder for OF u.s. IL may
also make IL more exalted for all of Us
II takes courage TO live In a world whore
you've got to be yourself else be nobody but You've
got better chance TO be somebody when you don't
have to be like everybody.

Every is welcome to attend the meeting. Repre-
