It is reported that the Mormon church has nearly fifteen hundred missionaries out in the different countries "of the world preaching the doctrirci of that church, This fact of itself, when known, is enough to attract the attention of an)' thinking person. But the most startling fact is what it cost to send these missionaries to the different parts of the globe. If we put their expenses at a very moderate figure, say $100 each to get them to and from theii fields of labor, we then have the sum of $150,000. If we put their expenses ex-penses while abroad at $10 per month each, which seems to us quite small, we then have the sum of $180,000. Put these two sums together and we have the sum of $330,000. This showing would look to be sufficient to challenge the admiration of all those who see it. It looks like this amount would be an eye opener for the people of those nniions who get the must of it. ? |
