How TO Treat the pastor.

BE courteous to your pastor. Give
him the best that your stock affords.
l3estOw upon him your brightest smile.
Study his little wants and see that
they are satisfied. Surprise him with
delicate attention. If he looks tired
after preaching say CHEEKY word to
him. If you happen to know that some
rude or thoughtless person has stung
him with unkind ness, show him that
you love him. Do not let him know
that you are aware of his trouble, but
simply shine it away by your beam of
life.
Remember that the best pastoral
visit is the visit you pay your pastor,
but do not overdo the thing. Do not
build your tent in the pasror's house or
study. Do not go to see your pastor
too often; do not go at the wrong time
ard do not spend the week wis you
d. go. Go when you wish to see him.
Go for some distinct, purpose, and
when you get through give his hand
me warm squeeze and strike for the
door.
Introduce strangers to your pastor.
This is a superb thing for you TO do. If
YOU can carry new people to church,
he sure to take them up and present
them to the minister, and always say
in Introducing him, "This is my pas
tor" That has q strong. affectionste
sound. 1t will touch the pastor, and
the stranger will at once infer that
you think highly of your pastor, which,
in point of fact, you ought to do.
Speak well of your pastor. Speak
veil of him at home. 1t is burning
disgrace for you TO blurt out your
-narls and frets against him in the
presence of the home folks, and es-
pecially the children. 1t will do harm
! of which you little dream. or course
it S the essence of wickedness to talk
i'll of your pastor IN the presence of
| outsiders. This is the dregs of mean
| ness. This Is the most effective pos
sible way of destroying your pastor
| usefulness and peoples respect for
you.
Finally, pray for your pastor. That
| is the truest bond of union with him.
If you prayOfor him other things will
come along all right.-Baptist Clean
er.
