THE PREACHERS PAY-WHEN SHOULD
HE GET 1T?
The average salary for preachers in IL leading
denominations is STA a year.
That's $2.12 day.
The average preacher is married. Most of
them are raising children, feeding them, clothing
them buying medicine for them and sending them
to school.
The average preacher works seven days
week.
He must wear good clothes; his wife must
dress WE'LL and his children cannot appear in tat
tered and torn rags.
His congregation insists that the preacher and
his family must not display any sign of poverty,
and the preacher must wear sme-always. He
must have CHEEKY word for every man, woman
and child he meets. He must not complain.
Once in a while preacher quits the pulpit and
takes another job-one which will leave some-
thing in his pay envelope after taking out the tolls
of butcher, candestick maker and the baker: Then
his congregation speaks of "his fall from grace"
and he is branded outcast.
A preacher ought to preach. What right has
he to stew and fret about shoes for his children,
food for his table and the declining years Of his
life?
And above all, preacher should never men,
ton his pay envelope, for his congregation has
arrived at the conclusion that their pastor will
reap his reward in the hereafter, than which no
human being could desire greater reward.
So the congregation distributes haloes, passes
to paradise, and reserved seats in heaven to its
pastor. Having been thus generous in the matter
of spiritual rewards, the members of the average
congregation hand over about two cents a day
which totals the munificent sum of $212 every "a
hours for the preacher.
You know, the average congregation magines
its pastor never would get to heaven unless it per-
mitted him to preach to it each Sunday. That's
the impression the preacher must receive every
time he gets his lean pay envelope. ...a.
So he goes on preaching and praying for his
employers, and for everybody else under the sun.
We suppose there are times when preacher gets
to pray for himself and preach to himself Usually,
though, the average preacher has his hands full
preaching to and praying for his congregation.
When he's not preaching and praying he is
visiting the sick and helpless, the aged and the
backslider Aside from these duties he has moth
ing else beyond attending to the lawn socials
the half dozen or church societies; the boys and
girls, the Sunday school; the choir, soliciting
money for new church roof; collecting for home
and foreign missions; burying and marrying
US; baptizing us and converting us. Once in a
while the average $2.12 congregation will permit
It's pastor to take exercise moving the church
lawn, or sweeping snow off the sidewalk. -
Truly is the "laborer worthy Of his hire" The
only trouble in the matter is the matter of the
preachers hire is that his congregation expects the
Lord to pay about 88 per cent of the hire.
It is better to increase the content of the
preachers pay envelope than to contribute for
homes for aged pastors, and it is more pleasing to
preachers to get regular sized pay envelopes while
they live than bronze tablets after they're dead.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SPECULATtVE INTERESTS
 WERE IN CONT

New York. July 15.-Pools and speculative interests generally were again in undisputed control of the stock market today, resuming their 1 bullish operations in the face of de velopments which ordinarily would have given rise to no little concern.
 Absolute demora1iZatiOn in the for eign exchange market, as evidenced London and Paris and increased dis crimination against industrial collat- eral, caused only occasional interrup- ton to the markets further advance.
 Dealers in exchange were at a loss to explain the continued adverse movement of sterling and francs on other than credit or economic grounds which are admittedly unsavorable to the principal entente powers.
 The gap between mixed and 'all in dustriaI" loans widened appreciably in the afternoon, the former closing at six per cent. the days ruling rate. while 12 per cent. was demanded for the less acceptable security.
 Yesterdays favorites, notably Cru cible Steel Baldwin Locomotive and Stutz Motor. were again prominent, but less sensational in their move ments. Numerous miscellaneous dealings, rails also manifestb g strength, but losing ground la1c~, when leaders reacted one to tAD points.

SPORTING NOTES

Cooper had the Giants handcuffed and there wasn't a Houdini in sight.
 Harry Safir, who is the megaphoae man at the Yankee games, has been drafted to do the announcing for the Giants. It's a big help to the fans for when they boost or boo a player they want to know whom they are boosting or knocking.
 Hugo Bezdek, who bosses the Pi- rates, is continually encouraging his players. His favorite advice to his lads at the bat is, Make it be good. Sometimes they do and then again they don't.
 Kid Caton and Mollwitz walked in from first together after the double play in the ninth. Caton is the short is a bean pole When Caton wants to communicate with Mollwitz he has to write a note and hand it up to him..
 Pittsburg isn't out of this pennant race by any means They are getting firmer hold on fourth place every day and Bezdek has a strong pitching staff to call on.
 The west is treating sthe east just as kindly as it did in May when the easern teams crossed the Alleghanies for the first time In twelve games played the, last two days the east has landed just two. The Yankees and Senators each picked one game out of a double header and saved the east from being annihilated.
 The Clark who has been catching for the Phillies in the last few games is none other than old Mig" Clark. formerly with the Cleveland Indians.
Norwich bulletin., 1919-07-16

He was over on the other side with the marines. Mig won considerable fame in 1906 when he was tied for the American league batting lead wiEa George Stone. Yes, folks, that was some time ago! a
 Perhaps it is Cincinnati's turn to win the pennant this year. In each of the last five years q different club has won. It went entirely around the eastern end of the circuit and now it seems that the west is getting a crack at it. Boston won in 1914, Philadel phia in 1915, Brooklyn in 1916 New Pork in 1917, Chicago in 1918 and Garry Hermann says Cincinnati will win in 1919. At that rate Branch Hickey may order a pennant pole for the Cardinals by 1921.
 WickIand, the Yankee utility out fielder, continues to maintain his spotless record Al appeared in two more games yesterday and each time he had that familiar 70" in the, hit column. A Yankee fan writes: "BHl Lamar is not the most valuable out fielder in the world, but if he is not an improvement on this young man I'm willing to eat my hat" Many other persons have the same feeling on the subject, though all have not reaced the hat eating sage.

AUSTRALIAN PLAYERS DUE ON JULY 28h

great speed this year and have lost but one game out of the twentsr- five they have played.
 The Norwich team played their first game last Sunday and trimmed the New London Independents II to 5 in a one sided contest. Since that game new men have made their appearance on the local team. men who have played the game and who are con sidered fast. The game should be a fast one and the public will have the chance. to show whether or not they are with the local team in the bring ing back of the good old game to Nor wich.
 The diamond has been repaired and now it is in first class condition The infield is now half dirt and half grass and looks like the Polo Grounds. The management is soon to add a back stop and to erect a score board on the field. It is also hoped, that by Sunday seats can be erected for the comfort of the fans. Baseball at one time was popular in this city and the attendance at the game last Sunday shows that the lovers of the sport are still plentiful. Back up the team and Norwich will again have a champion ship team like those in the days gone by when Norwich camped at the top of the Connecticut league.

Boston, July 15-The Australian tennis team. headed by Norman E..

 Secretary Richard Bishop of the Massachusetts Tennis Association had announced today that the Australians were en route to America and would be here in time to compete in the eatsern tournament Later, however, he said they had missed the steam ship Aquitania and had cabled that they were sailing on the Adriatic. due in New York on July 2S.
