THE SWEATED CLERGY. “ The Church Assembly spent most of the second day in the July sessions in discussing the Cathedrals Measure. It was not a Measure with aroused enthusiasm. Any bishop, any archdeacon, almost any rural dean knows that a considerable proportion of the clergy under his eye live in perpetual struggle to make both ends meet,” adds the “Record.” “Yet the Church, as represented by the Assembly, seems content to dally with palliatives and never to attack the.real problem. The financial position of the clergr offers a big and a complex problem. Sooner or later it must be attacked in no partial or ballhearted fashion. And, in the face of present suffering, the Assembly might do better than give a foremost place to toying with our Cathedral system.” —“ The Record.”
