M ovem ent the com p lied Protestant
churches of Am erica will provide many

feature of these Protestant hospitals
will be free treatment for ministers,
as recent surveys made by the Inter-

need for special dispeneatlona very
obvious.
The follow ing startling facts were
divulged as to the average salaries in
the various denominations.
Starting
with the highest, the average for Epis

for Presbyterian (N orth ), $1,177; for
the United Presbyterians, $1,09$; for
the Reform ed Church (D utch ). $1,170;
for the M ethodist Episcopal (N orth),
$1,176; Congregational, $1,042, and for

BREAD
The Merchant— The more people who habitually vis
it a town, the better become its possibilities as a business
and trading center. The two results are natural compan
ions. And every business interest in the town may profit
thereby. Every merchant wins there!
The Participant— One participant will receive hand
some compensation for his or her efforts during the cam
paign. Think o f it! A brand new 1920 model Maxwell
automobile, worth $1230, for only seven weeks o f con
scientious effort. Many men labor and save for a lifetime
to acquire much less. Next, look at the list o f additional
prizes— everyone attractive and of definite high value.
Moreover, remember that every active non-prize winning
candidate will receive 20 per cent on subscription money
collected. Certainly, everybody wins (some in a mighty
big w ay), and nobody loses there!

The Town— More people in the surrounding territory
will become familiar with, and interested in Independ

visitors to the town and participants in its activities.
That will have a tendency to make it a more active and
interesting town—a better town. Everybody wins there I
