Advice to Ministers.


From the report of the closing SEES
sion of the Tennessee conference of the
African Methodist Episcopal Church
last week at Nashville, published in
the American, we take the following:4
Bishop Salter, upon receiving the
young men into the church on trial,
delivered short lecture to them, tell
ing each how to conduct himself as a
minister in order to get along and build
himself up. He spoke of the impor-
lance Of the work Of the gospel min
lister, holding it mp as the most impor-
tant calling. He wanted them to be
active men, never unemployed, but at
their leisure they were to search the
scriptures diligently, They were told
not to stand around the street corners
and in barber-shops telling long yarns
or jokes. "You are to spend your time
in study" he continued, learning the
word of God, to be able to go to your
people with new sermon as we'll as a
new text, 1t is yotir duty to visit your
members and pray with them, but this
is not meant that you should visit any
one place too much or stay too long
when You go, Make it a point to make
your ministerial visits when the hus-
band is at home, and not stand around
to see when he goes in order to visit
Take yonr hymn book in one hand and
the Bible in the other, and God bless
you" .g
The young ministers We're admonish-
ed to be prudent with women. and not
make love with every good looking wo-
man Of their congregations. In this
connection the Bishop said that a
preacher should be the husband of one
wife, and it was his duty to support
her. He was to be true to his wife and
family, and not take up his time with
some other mans wife and family. He
took off his gloves, rolled up his sleeves
and handled the kissing preachers in a
rough manner, SO to speak. He oppos-
ed the preacher kissing any woman ex-
cept his wife, mother, sister or dsugh-
ter, and when he left them he was to
leave off kissing. ''This kissing has
caused the downfall Of so many men,
and if you want to stay out Of trouble
stay away from the kissing machines. .
In his closing words he spoke against
the whisky drinking, cigar smoking
and tobacco chewing preachers, saying
they We're not wanted in his church.
He declared that men who were known
to drink whisky or to be guilty Of any
immoral act wonld not receive any ap-
pointments in his conference.
