MINISTERS COST
LESS THAN AUTOS
World Survey Figures Reveal
How Badly United States
is Paying Its Pastors
MANY GET $500 YEARLY;
OTHERS BARELY $500

What are the chances of a Young
man who intends to be a lawyer of
making $4,000 year? What are the
uoctor's chances? What of the min
lister or the manufacturer?
The lawyer has exactly one chance
IN nve. The doctors chances are one
III seven 1t is ten to one against the
manufacturer. The modern minister,
however, who formerly ranked with the
doctor and lawyer as member of the
learned professions" has fallen hone
lessly behind. He is 100 to 1 shot.
Ihese figures are part of a mass of
astonishing facts brought to light nv
the world survey being made by the
lnterchurch World Movement and
whose sources of information are such
that many economists and statisticians
are availing themselves of the results
This survey puts Americas minister
at the bottom of the ladder of the ma
IONS income receivers-and with re-
sponsibilities which equal those of anv
captain of industry.
A worker in silk mill. a laborer in
rubber plant, paper maker, a work
er IN shoe factory-all are getting
higher average wages, the survey
shows, than does Americas minister
city or country. Nor does the CITY
man receive the luxurious salary that
many persons, including many country
parsons, believe he does. Not four
ministers in thousand, according to
the survey receive $4,000 a year. In
no instance, whatever the denomina-
ton, does majority receive $1,000.
Cotton Pickers Better OFF.
Are you Congregationalist? In
2,7S3 churches the yearly pay to our
ministers has been less than $1,000.
Are you Presbyterian? You are then
on the less than $1,000 list with GALS
ministers. In the event that you are a
Methodist the charge is that 4719 pas
tors are trying to exist on the $40
week that you pay them. Episcopalians
do little better, yet half of their rec
tors receive less than the 81, 500 year
which government economists regard
as the minimum on which a family can
be decently maintained
The initial cost of the cheapest civ
yer" On the market is less than $500,
but a very good, conscientious pastor,
it is shown can be hired for a year for
that sum
Ministers in the South are preaching
to fifty or more cotton pickers who in
dividually are paid more for picking
cotton than their entire neigborhood
pays to the preacher in year.
One of the aims of the present CO.
operation of the worlds Protestant de-
nominations is to end this disgrace of
the underpaid minister. With univer-
stiles, business houses and municipali
ties daily taking action to provide f
the comfort of their workers, 4
church is to keep pace with the time.
and to arrange not only for adequate
pay for it's workers, but to provide
pensions for those no longer able to
work

WOMEN AUXILIARIES TO
AMERICAN LEGION.

State Commander, Colonel Albert
GreenIaw says that the manner in which
the women are interesting themselves in
the organization of the auxiliaries to the
American Legion is very gratifying. 1t
has been but about six weeks since the
Maine Department has been authorized
to proceed with their organization, but
already Is auxiliares are in working
shape, with applications for new charters
coming along at rapid rate.
The assistance that will be rendered
the World War boys by the women of the
auxiliaries will be more pronounced as
the years 60 by and in time, the women
will doubtless be considered one of the
most important parts of the entire organ
ization.
The growth of the American Legion it.
self in Maine has been almost phenome-
nal, over 100 posts having been organic
ed-with the Legion little less than a
year old.

THE MOST AND BEST.

The importance of economy has been
impressed on our minds in recent years.
We want to know that we are getting
the most and best for our money, no
matter what we spend it for.
In the matter of medicine there is
probably no more economical course of
treatment than Hoods Sarsaparilla and
Peptiron-a real iron tonic-taken in
conjunction, one before eating and the
other after.
The combination of these two great
medicines brings into cooperation such
well-knoWn substances as sarsaparllla,
iron, nux and pepsin, best for the blood,
nerves and digestive organs.
This combination is especially recon-
mended in cases that are scrofulous, or
rheumatic, anemic and nervous, or where
the blood is both impure and pale, de-
ficient in iron.
In cases where laxative is needed
Hoods Pills should be taken.

FIRST FULL TIME OFFICER

The town of York has to its credit the
first full time health officer ever employed
by Maine town. York proved pioneer
in the health movement, as its citizens
were far sighted enough to see the ire
mendous benefit which would be derived
from the fact that the town has a clean
bill of health to present to its summer
visitors. AS the major business of the
town has to do with its summer resorts,
health officer, on full time duty, has
proved financial as well as physical
asset to the community. The first full
time health officer there went on duty
February l, 1915.
