They are carrying-on the work instituted by those who have preceeded them in the mission field during the last few years. In the interest of their work, these young men will carry on a ceries of brief lectures over the local broadcasting station starting immediately every Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 12:30 and on Sundays at 2:30. These lectures {will be on the Book of Mormon, | studied from the standpoint of In- [dian legends and tradition and from recent archaeological discov- cries on the North and South American continents. They will also give illustrated Book of Mormon lectures in the city by means of a slide projectot which shows pictures of the ruined cities of the ancients. Both open {air and hall meetings will be held, | From Pertland Headquarters | The party is from the Northwest- ern States Mission with headquar- ters in Portland, Oregon, which is a branch of the Church of Jesu¢ Christ of Latter Day Saints. The missiona; in Juneau are Clinton M. Ta of Kirtland. ico; rel E. Brems of i, Utah; Carl G. Warnick of Provo, Utah; Loral C. Dana of Me:a, Ariz, and John F. Watson of Salt Lake City, Utah. In discussing their work here the young men gave the following interesting account of how the Mormon Missionary System oper- ates: . “The misslonary system of the Church has been regarded as one of the marvels of the religious world. Men are called as they are. needed, and for serviee in some of the missions of the Church wemen also, to give their time and energies to this privileged labor “By far the greatest number of missionaries are young men and women. It is the ambition of Mormon youths to so live as to be counted worthy to be called to the service. One person usually serves two or more years. Money for Maintenance “One unacquainted with this system is inclined to inquire as to whence and how the mission procures money for his mainten- ance. A few use accumulated means of their own; others r: regular remittances from families at home; the vet others are assisted by contributions from the respective Ward or Stake to which he belongs. “The financial cost of our mis- sionary work is a subject of oc- casional inquiry. The Church records show the following inter- esting items for the year 1929. On the basis of a broad average cover- ing all our missionaries in all lands and climes, the cost per mis- slonary for subsistence in the field, including necessary trave! within the district, was $40.08 per month or $480.96 per year. During the year 1929 the average number of missionaries in the field was 2,064; and the cost of subsistance for this number amounted to $992,701.44. Wage Earning Capacity “This does not take into con- sideration the wage earning ca- pacity of the missionaries’ time. Take the average earnings of the missionaries to have been $900.00 money value of ohe year's time for the 2,084 missionaries in the field is equal to $1,857,600.00, which add- ed to the cost of maintenance be- fore specified gives a total of $2,- 850,301.00 as the individual con- tribution of the missionaries for a single year. This does not in- clude the cost of transportation from the .missionary's home to his field, which he pays, nor the cost of return transportation, which is paid by the Church. “Since missionary work was first instituted in this Church about 100 years ago, more than 70,000 men and women have gone into the fleld and it has been estimated that more money has been expend- ed in this_benevolent work than will be needed to build the Boulder Dam one of the largest of govern- ment projécts.” i NOT RECKLESS—SECOND HAND MCcPHERSON, Kas., April 20.—Ed Lewis, arrested for reckless driving when his car leaped a curb, struck a pedestrian and wound up against & Stape tront, explained he had just bought the machine second-hand and didn’t know its peculiarities He was released when the pedes- trian declined to prefer charges.
