To is the kind of increase in salary expenses have risen just as fast and as far But he is paid on the average just 52 cents more per church member than he was paid 34 The Minister Never Fails You Every officer of the Government with a war message to deliver appealed to the ministers first But 80% of the ministers receive less income than government economists figure as a minimum for the support of an average family. When hospitals need money they enlist the support of th> ministers--and receive it. But when sickness visits the minister or the members of his family they must be treated in a charity ward. His pay is less than a day laborer's. 8 out of every 10 ministers receive less than $20 a week--about half the pay of a mechanic. We Pay Him Half the Wages of a Mechanic And of these pitifully inadequate salaries, how much do Nothing if you are outside the church; an average of less than 3c a day if you are a church All of us share in the benefits of Christian ministers to the community. They marry us; bury us; baptize our children; visit us when we are sick. In their hands is the spiritual training of the youth. We Are All Profiteers at Their Expense Part of the Interchurch World program is this--a living wage for every minister of Jesus Christ; an efficient plant, and a chance to do a big man's job.

"Wish I Had" and "I'm Going To," were members of an ordinary, every "Wish I Had" was always seeing things that he wanted, but never had the money to get them, because he had never done anything about a bank account, but "wish he had" it. nn | "I'm Going To" was his sister. She, too, saw many things she wanted, and it was her real intention to have them "sometime," but always failed te get them, because when the matter of starting a bank account was men- tioned, she always said, "I'm a going to," and let it go at that. MORAL--A bank account, while not a cure all, can heal a lot of financial "aches" and "pains," and give a fellow that pleasant "easy" and "comfort- able" feeling.
