More than RS per cent of tha honn In New York City ura rented. In the Porourh of Manliattan the pervemage rises to V7. Nor is thl* condition limited to die Metropolis It la common to most dtlea. The people of the United Slate* who lire !n rented home* are in excesa of 54 per cent of the population, according to the lateai government return* About 4S per cent own the house* In whir* they live. These statistic* hare been cdlected for the survey of city life now helm: conducted by the Interchurch World Movement to provide a practical pro glam for closer co-operation of Protestant Churche* In America. And the survey already n-veala one of the g: event problem* now confronting the

Church.

Rented homes, the mrvey ahowr. mean migrant fnrrll.es, for the day the long lease Is passing, and Increas:* In rent cause Increases In moving. The migration of families has shifted and changed the congregations of orb»n churches. And 'oo often the family that moves beyond the reach of one church does not tmnsfer Its memberahlp to another, even though It attands thrt other. The moving family, aay the worker* «n the survey, leave* the cl •

■ by which mrtnhersblp Is trans.'erred, and the family cat behind. If the rburrh did not hove more lives than a cat. those survey worker* are beginning to think, h would have beer, dead long ago, for. Just as the family "loses'' Its «nr, a elinnh Iowa members, aitbough another church does not gain

them.

One preacher In a pastorate of IS years noted 3.000 changes In hi* congregation. The present generation of the city, the survey reveals. Is a generation of wanderer* because of the growing number of rented home* and the rirlng rents As a result, the family church is becoming an urban rarity. The family in which the father la a founder of the tTorch ha attends, marrii-d to * member of the congregation, and with | children baptised by the family minister. Is more and more seldom found, the survey workers r*t>ort. Too often the Increase 1c rent ha* nt flu- family to another nelghbor- ; hood ‘ -ne purpose of the Interchurch |World Movement httct of ti e cities 1* to determine how. through that efficient co-ops rr tlon of churches which t* the rm.Jor aim of the mevoment. mlcr .nf fatuDlaa may nor be lent to the membership of their respective deaominnttnna.

NEW KINKS IN JOB OF GETTING TEACHERS Closing of Schools by Thousands Makes Officials Bid High for Scarcest Article cn the Labor Market. f Competition for school teacher*, who are now about the scarcest tides on the lalKtr markaL has «ken on recently some strange and Interesting phases. It uaed to be that the.® were plenty of teacher*, and In thus* days there wu* little cotui'etliJon. If any, for their nenlces. If they Inquired—and they did in large numhera—they were told what salary bad lieen fixed for a particular position, nnd they could take It or leave lh Why worry? Some one would be certeln to come along in due time and atari to work. Ail that la changed n-w. From every state In the Union, from nearly every large city, anJ especially from Hie rural community, come* a wall. Nobody who knowa how to teach achool own !>c found to take any of the placet left vacant by the mnuy thousands who have quit teadilng In the punt year In order to make a living. The competent unemployed teacher has ceased to exist. There Isn't any. The old time supply of young folk willing to teach for a year or two while fifing themselves for other oc-.-upaiioiis 1* also a minus quantity. Y'oung men and young women car make more money these days at other work and have more time for further pn-paratiuu than leaching would give

them.

“We'll pay you $000 a year to start, and that Is $J00 a year more than the regular salary.” one principal in New Jersey wroie to a young woman recently graduated from a normal | school T am getting $1,6.7) a year now for - easier work and that salary la not irregular at all. It's what I'm being paid Just while Tin fitting myaelf to do si better class of work f--r a considerably higher salary." That waa the answer sent back by the graduate. It may soun' -vert, but times have changed. Competition i.aa stalked In brazenly to tangle up that nice old custom of our>—grown secred aa well as hoary with the year*—of getting our bright young Marys and Johns turned Into prodigies of learning at trifling cost Here we were able to imbue generation after generat'on of earnest young women, and even a goodly number of men for a time, with a willingness to accept the teacher's dole and to live ■ on it, no matter by hoe- much raving end skimping, as a jmrt of their personal sacrifice In a worthy and dilCcnlt calling. And now comes the high of living, without the courtesy of a warning, and wrecks the whole !•enutlful structure of salary achedulw, and i*-dugogtcal Ideals so carefully created by our canny forefather* and so revered by us. "S'art In teaching at $14 a week I Not so yoc could notice It,” says the business-wise high school girl "I guess I've got to live—yes?” That's one of the disagreeable featur.-*- of the present serious teacher trouble. Competition catches them coming nnd going. Because bris'nes- men know something good when they see It and are willing to pay the price their bidding for those In the leaching profession set up a kind of cniuifet'Mou that lias put the maker* of teachers' salary' schedules In considerable of a stew. Business la offering mure money—a whole lot more. It Isn't clubby, to be sure, but It Isn't herd to do either, t:-cause the yearly pay of the average teacher is less than that of the lowest kind of labor that of the "mustabouL” Still It fusses up the maker* of teachers’ salary schedules dreadfully. It has caused different localities In nearly every - *tute to enter Into ke«n romi-c-ition for comi>etent teachers, and there Is even competition as be- ! tween the stales themselves. New expedlent* are l<elng resorted to to retain teachers and teacher material One of these Is the refusal to give cerUflcates to normal achool graduates until they have taught two years In the state In which the school Is lo-

cale*!.

Anil with this Vompeiltlon to meet nnd the fear that their acbm !a will be lefi without teachers, local school board*, the makers of salary schedule*. have to work with ah eye on the taxpayer. That kind of wo'k la dis.-oncertlng, especially when all taxpayer!, naturally want the taxes kept down, and not many of them know tint unless the teachers' **!- I arle* »rv jacked up wlu- a Jolt, and 1 prompt!;, 'bey will have to teach their ' children tl>. -ive*. if any u-.-chlag u

done hereafter.

The whole trouble la, of course, that i he people generally don't know yet about the danger .us plight into which •lie schools have fallen. The teacher* know it the school authorities know, do those who have to with matter* of taxation. And. at leaat In N'*w

< large task of jetting the .n over to all the people of being pnsltei] vigorously.
