MINISTERS COST
LESS THAN AUTOS
World Survey Figures Reveal
How Badly United States Z
Paying Its Pastors.
MANY LIVE ON 5000 A YEAR
One CT the Aims Of Present Protestant
Cooperation 10 to End Disgrace
Of Underpaid Preaeher-Psn-
sions Also to Be Provided.

What are the chances of young
man who intends 10 be a lawyer of
making 5000 a year? What are the
doctors chance: What of the minis
ter or the manufacturer?
The lawyer has exactly one chance
in five. The doctors chances are one
in seven. 1t is ten to one against the
manufacturer The modern minister,
however, who formerly ranked with
the doctor and lawyer as a member of
the learned professions" has fallen
hopelessly behind He is 100 to l
shot
These figures are part of mass of
astonishing facts brought to light by
the world survey being made by the
Interchurch World Movement and
whose sources of information are
such that many economists and sta
tisticians are availing themselves of
the results. This survey puts Ameri-
cas- minister at the bottom Of the
ladder of the nations income re-
ceivers and with responsibilities
which equal those of any captain of
industry.
Not four ministers in a thousand,
according to the survey, receive $5,-
600 a year In no instance, whatever
the denomination, does majority re-
ceive $1,000.
Cotton Piekers Better OF.
Are you a COngregationalist? In
2.783 churches the yearly pay to your
ministers has been less than 1900
Are you Presbyterian? You are then
on the less than $1,000 list with 6,415
ministers. In the event that you are
Methodist the charge is that 4,719
pastors are trying to exist on the $50
week that you pay them. Episco-
palians do little better, yet half of
their rectors receive less than the ST.
500 n year which government econo-
mists regard as the minimum on which
a family can be decently maintained.
The initial cost of the cheapest
''flivver' on the market is less than
5000, but a very good, conscientious
pastor, it Is shown, can be hired for
year for that sum.
Ministers in the South are preach
ing to fifty or more cotton pickers
who individually are paid more for
picking cotton than their entire
neighborhood pays to the preacher in
q 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-
sites, business houses and municipali-
ties daily taking action to provide for
the comfort of their. workers, the
church is 10 keep pace with the times,
and to arrange not only for adequate
pay for its workers, but to provide
work.

PINNING A MEDAL ON
THE BANKER.

When you were kidlet and used
to slip nickles into your little tin
bank, you used to just love that bank,
didn't you? 1t was one of your
best friends, wasn't it?
Well, in these later days, when
you're saving dollars, insterd of
nickles, you've found a new friend
to put your money with. It's still a
bank, but dollars are so much more
important than nickles that this new
bank has a guardian.
He's yorr banker.
When financial troubles have YOU
somewhat guessing, this man Ia a
pretty good fellow to suggest wavs

turning out a higher elade of work.
This is not due to an effort on their
part to drive the men or in any way
attempt to make them work harder
than the men of other plants do, but
on the other hand is due to the fact
that they have a good thorough going
system, which is used with the hearty
approval of every man employed by
them. Thereby assuring them of the
full cooperation of the men.
All these things together making
high degree of efficiency. Now l
believe that in order to get co-opera-
ton your plan must be really coop
erative. Meaning that if you want
the other fellow to help you, you
must help him. In putting this plan
into effect in their business they have
set aside a part of the profits of the
| business to be divided among the en-
| ployees. This gives every man a per-
sonal interest in the business and
makes it to his interest to follow the
general plan and cooperate with his
foreman to the best of his abaility.
, In order to inform all of the men as
to details of the general plan and for
the purpose of having free and easy
discussion of same, and receiving sug-
gestions from anyone who may have
an idea for the betterment of the
work, this company has regular meet
ings of all Office, road and shop men.
At which they usually serve refresh
ments and ask for such suggestions
as anyone may have to offer. These
meetings are very democratic in spir-
it and everyone connected with the
organization, from the president
down, is just one of the "boys." By
having the men cooperate with the
/ foreman, the foreman with the Office,
the travelling men with the office, and
the Office with the travelling men and
the foremanaI believe that they are
deriving the best possible results
from the organization.
am sure that this plan will work
in any organization when it is adopt
ed and strictly adhered to, insuring
the greatest possible results for the
amount of labor done by each man.
These are my reasons for believing
in cooperation. Do you agree with
me that it pays? If so put your
shoulder to the wheel and go to work.
cooperating with your fellowman in
every good cause that you are inter
ested in.
Americus times-recorder. [volume] (Americus, Ga.) 1891-current, 1920-02-20

Do you believe in cooperation? l
do. Why? Because outside of CO.
operation there is only one thing
greater that makes for success in any
undertaking. That is efficiency. And
efficiency in its fullest sense cannot
be had without cooperation. Coop
Grafton itself cannot be had without
system. Therefore we have three es-
sential prerequisites to success in all
undertakings. First we must have a
good system or plan. Then, in or
der to bring it to it's highest degree
of efficiency we must have the CO.
operation of every individual con-
cerned in the plan or system. When
you have perfected your plan or sys-
tenn and have enlisted the full CO.
operation of every individual con-
cerned therein efficiency will natur-
ally result, and success, as result
thereof, is almost absolutely guaran-
teed. Without this plan or system,
and the cooperation of every indi-
vidual, success is almost an impossi-
| bility regardless of the fact that you
may have interested in your work
some OF the best and most brilliant
men of the nation. 1t is impossible
to bring the work of individuals to a
high degree of efficiency unless each
individual is thoroughly familiar
with the plan and his part therein.
This has been demonstrated in
practically every big business organ
ization in the world. 1t has also
been ably demonstrated in a small
way by some of the smaller organiza-
tons, both in business, church and
fraternal affairs. For instance, the
Baraca class of the First Baptist
church of Americas by cooperation
and giving along a systematic plan has
been enabled to do a wonderful
amount of charitable work, helping
numbers of needy families and indi-
lviduals in the way best calculated to
do the most good. This class is COM
lposed of comparatively small num-
Der of men of very modest means.
AS another instance of cooperation
| will mention the business of man
ufacturing enterprise, During all of
the recent years of unsettled labor
conditions they have never had a
strike or any trouble with the men
employed by them. Not only that
but believe that their plant is pro-
ducing more work per man than any
other plant l know of, and doing it
with a great deal more ease, and in a

ROSEBUDS IN THE WHEAT.
I HEARD God from his Judgment
seat
Speak unto Death, at is not meet;
Rosebuds are in the ripened wheat.
"Canst thou not count thy sickle's
gain
And cut the ripened, golden grain,
Letting the rosebuds still remain?
Surely it showeth wanton power
To scarify the morning flower
Ere it hath bloomed its little hour.
And all the earth IS filled with grief
And men deny me their belief;
Rosebuds are in the garnered sheaf."
Then answered Death, ooh, am old /;
My eyes are dim, my blood is cold;
The sickle wavers in my hold.
rs it my fault the rosebuds grow
Hard by the wheat fields outer row,
Or that my hand is palsied so?
Give Love my sickle. Let him serve :;
No tender strike of his will swerve
And they shall die VINO shall deserve"
NAY, none!' cried Love, for would
spare
The milk breath and the silver hair
And all between, though foul or fair"
Then whispered God beneath his
breath,
The sickle must remain with Death,
Even though at whites he blundereth.
For who would know that life were
sweet,
II life should never know defeat,
Aye, even with rosebuds in the
