HISTORICAL


Whereas, The cost of living during the past four years has been steadily in- creasing, yet in many cases there has been no increase in the salaries paid our ministers ; and


Whereas, The wealth of our constituency has been steadily increasing ;


We resolve, That we as laymen, representing our Churches, are amply able to increase substantially the salaries of all those ministers who have during this period received no advance in salary ;


Be it further resolved, That we, upon whom the responsibility largely rests for the maintenance of efficient ministry, recommend that the minimum cash salary paid to any minister who devotes his entire time to this work be $1,000.00, and pledge ourselves to our utmost endeavor to see this result achieved in every pastoral charge.


Whereas, The citizens of the City of Lansing have given us of their hospitality ; and


Whereas, Our sister Church, the First Presbyterian Church of this city, has opened Its doors to us ;


We hereby resolve, That we, the lay members of the Michigan Conference in convention assembled, do hereby render them our thanks for the kindness and brotherly spirit shown.
