BAPTISTS ME BOOSTING PIIV OF MINISTERS A u b u r n Electric Company 123 Genesee St. The dictum of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., to the effect tliat no man ought to be ex pec ted to support a family de cently on less tlian $1,200 a year seems to have been, accepted la Vermont. ■While a recent surrey revealed the fact that Baptist ministers through out thc country with the exception of a few in the larger cities, received an average wage of only $683 a year, or 51.87 a day, Vermont Baptists today are paying their preachers an average of $1,200 a year and house rent. Moreover there is a movement on foot to raise the minimum pay of $1,- 000 a year and- house rent, wcich was •fixed at a meeting of tho Vermont Baptist State Convention last Sep tember, to $1,200 a year and rent, which would bring tlio lowest paid minister In the state to within strik ing distance of the present average salary. When the Northern . Baptist Con vention holds Its 13th annual meeting at. Buffalo, July 23-20, it is expected that reports will be submitted showing tliat tlie campaign of education to se cure adequate pay for tho clergy as recommended in conncetlon with the New World 'Movement at the' Denver meeting in 1910 lias borne fruit. Many churches have not only added materially to their pastor’s pay checks but have also provided suitable par sonages thereby relieving {be frightful er’s family budget from the frightful inroads of thc profitoe'rins landlords. •Moreover, the convention at Buffalo is expccted to adopt’a definite plan for the' pensioning of 'ministera and mis sionaries who have grown old la the aervioe of the church.

This far tiy the Booker Frlm»ry Cwnp*tjm Cwaoltt** Bill McCabe says he is an outfielder, and he should know what he is. Bill was taken by the Brooklyn Superbas on May 22 .from the Chicago Cubs when waivers were asked upon him, and be joined the Superbas in Pitts burgh, writes^ Thomas Bice in the Brooklyn “Eagle.” Despite his own ' protestations that he is an outfielder, Manager Fred Mit chell of the Cubs, persisted in the be- lief that McCabe is an infielder, and used hi* for the past two seasons as a substitue for Charley Hollocher when that eminent shortstop met -with accidents, which was quite frequent al though Mitchell occasionally employed Bill in the outfield. McCabe also played the infield part of the time when, he was with St. Joe in the 'West ern' League,' but his heart was in the suburbs and he hopes Uncle Wilbert Robinson will contiuue to rate him as a suburbanite while he remains with the Brooklyn squ«d. | McCabe is' ' 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 1S5 pounds and got his start witli the semi-pros of his home town of Chicago. He accompanied the White Sox on a trip in the latter part of the 1013 season and attracted the at- • tention of Manager Clark Griffith of I Washington, who signed him for 1014 i but sent him to Newport News of the j Virginia League' Thcnce Bill was sent' to the Northern League, and from tjere drifted down to' S t Joe, Mo., where he played in 1016. He was witb Hutchinson in 'Western League when (hat club won the ' pennant for the ! second half of 1917. In 1918 he shared! the Cub's world’s series money and got i a slice ot the third place coin last year. McCabe played in St Joe, Mo., when Barney Reilly, former Brooklynite and graduate of Tale, was- district ntfor- ney and running for mayor. Barney received a trial with the Superbas as an incldcr in 1912, or thereabouts, and announced then that lie would some day bo the real thing in St. Joe. He became all of that after playing with tho St. Joe team several seasons, but lost tho election for mayor by a small majority. The claiming of McCabe by Brook lyn probably crabbed a deal by the Cubs with the Los Angeles team, which is managed by Wp.de Hampton Killi- fer, brother of Bill ICillifcr, the star catchot of the Cubs. Three clubs claim ed McCabe, but two of them were per suaded to recall their claims. Uncle Wilbert Robinson thought that Mc Cabe’s light had been rather hidden under a bushel in Chicago, and persist ed in having him. He will be an out fielder for tha present, when he has an opportunity to break into an outfield that will be regularly composed of Zack TO)eat, Hi Myers nnd Tommy GrLfiilh, but ho will also be available for infield rUiof. His great ambition is to piny regularly, nnd he does not care much with what organization, but he is so ticklcd over being with a team that has so bright aij outlook for the pennant as have the Superbas that ho will be fairly well satisfied with bench duty in Brooklyn.
