I P ) S. d | Pasto/s* Stipends i i —— I BIG SCHEME BY WELSH  METHODISTS. I At the Sassiwn this week, the Welsh 1 Methodists adopted a scheme for increas- ing the salaries of ministers. It aims at raising £ 250,GOO for a central fund with a view to secure pastoral oversight of and regular preaching in all the churches. The scheme provided for a minimum sal- ary of L2,00 a year for married pastors and £ 150 a year for unmarried pastors. This might be a stipend of £83 per an- num for pastoral work, and a. fee of X2 5s. for each Sunday's preaching en- I ga,gement in the case of a married man, and a stipend ol' £ 46 per annum for pas- toral work, and a preaching fee of t2 each Sunday for the unmarried pastor. A preaching fee of- Cl 10s. was suggested for ministerial students. The income of the fund was to be derived from personal subscriptions, contributions by the churches and income from invested funds. Every church must contribute an average of at least 13s. per member per an- num towards its own ministry. The com- mittee laid it down as essential to the success of the fund that every church shall contribute towards it an average of not less than 2s. 6d. per member a year. A graduated scale of abatements was provided for churches heavily bur- dened with building debts. The commit- tee also recommended the grouping of churches- and a. more settled ministry, and urged that "in the best interests of the connexion and in order to promote a loftier conception of the religious and moral obligations concerning parenthood and the place of childreninthe State, the principle be recognised of makng grants to pastors in respect of their children."
