Newell Dwight Hillis of New York have brought to the fore the ques- tion, “Should Ministers Speculate?” Unquestionably a minister of the Gospel has as much right to invest his means with a view to pecuniary gain as has any other citizen. He is a man as well as a minister, and his rights as a citizen do not differ in any sense from those of any other citizen. But the sordid world of today has learned to expect something higher and nobler from the men of God than a scramble in the commercial world for those riches which often they publicly condemn. To us it would seem that when a minister descends from the pinnacle of his purity and rubs elbows with his fellow men in the game of chance he is blunting the finer edge of his manhood and sacrificing the superior wisdom with which God has endowed him for the purpose of saving the souls of men. ‘We listen to his sermons with the expectation of learning of the higher thoughts and the brighter side of life; we expect him to lead us in the .path .of rectitude and pave the way to a brighter life yet to come; we look upon him as our guide, our mentor, as the one male being in all - this. world who is endowed by the Creator with the wisdom and the pa- tience to lead us in manhood as the mgther led us in our childhood days. And if we see him side by side with us in our mad scramble for gold it is more than possible we may come to consider his tedchings as coming more from the lip than from the heart. ' The minister is entitled to a sal- ary commensurate with his position and the financial means of his con- gregation. He should never be confronted with the necessity of employing out- side methods of keeping the wolf from the door. ‘He should -continue to be a min- ister—the man of :God.

Nation of Tenants. Cold government figures shows that this nation of farm-owners is rapidly becoming a nation of farm- tenants. There are now tenants on 37 per cent of our farm land. That is because each farmer tries to bor- row for himself and market for him- self instead of doing it through an organization of the kind outlined, such as his operation in the coun® tries of continental Europe. You, the farmers, have to plead and pray on bended knees for money to finance your crops. You pay big interest on short-time loans. If you happen not to be able to pay it back promptly, you are apt to be sold out. Then you become a tenant.
