But it might be difficult to calculate.

We would propose then, as a secondary item, some easily calculable and known expense, something which every missionary accountant knows, such as the pay of all native pastors and evangelistic workers, and then compare with these the contributions of the Christians for Church and evangelistic work only, excluding all fees for education and medicine.
That would, we think, give us a standard which we could apply without having to consider complications introduced by such things as Government grants to schools or hospitals.

We propose then to judge progress in self-support thus:-- -- ------------------------------------------------------------------- | Total Cost | Total | Total | | of all | Salaries of | Native | | Evangelistic | all Paid | Contribution, | Province.| and | Native | excluding | Remarks and | Pastoral | Evangelistic | School or | Conclusions.
| Work, Men | Workers, | Hospital | | and Material.

| including | Fees or | | | Pastors.

| Donations.
