WEST HAVEN FIRE.
IL A. Kimberly Loses Practically New
 Rnrnc

I lss E
 Fire yesterday noon destroyed two barns belonging to Lester A. Kimberly of 527 Savin avenue, West Haven The flames were first noticed by neighbors when they had gained considerable headway. The alarm was turned in and the borough fire department was soon on the scene They had water on the burning buildings in a short time but were unable to subdue the flames. After a stubborn fight the firemen pre- vented the buildings from being con sunaed, but they are an entire loss as they cannot be rebuilt.
 Only one horse was in the barn at the time of the fire and 1t was removed be fore the arrival of the company. The buildings are practically new, having been built only three years ago. In

phase for christian ministers. As to
the social amusements in society ana
that are common in the community,
and popular too. The minister ought
to exercise good common sense, sound
Judgment and dissertation with the
question in sight and proper for him to
attend such places; where the bible
says. follow not the multitudes to do
evil etc. Blessed is the man that
walketh not in the counsel of OF the
wicked, nor standeth in the way OF
sinners, nor sittsth In the seat OF the
scornful etc. The minister shosld say,
we are doing great work etc. we can
not come down; wherefore should l
leave off my high and holy calling and
come down to you to partake OF your
evil ways and ungodly doings. There
fore the minister in the community
must lift up the standard of morality,
elevate the ensign of virtue, raise high
the banner of christian light and truth
He goes fourth as the minister OF the
New Testament, not of the latter. but
of the spirit, for the latter killeth, but
the spirit giveth life. 81.
He goes in the spirit of the divine
Mastsr-dignified but gentle. He goes
forth to preach the glorious GOSPEL
of God and to teach the way of life and
saliva ton. He is in the community to
be a light and a guide. Hence the
minister should be jealous and faith
full in his business affairs, uniform in
his conduct, sincerity and earnestness
setting good example, This will
procure dignity to himself, to himself
give energy to what he says and prove
a blessing to the community where he
lives. Then with Paul he can say,
seeing we have this ministry, as we
have received mercy, we faint not but
have renowned the hidden things OF
dishonesty; not handling the word of
God deceitfully, but by manifestation
of the truth, commencing ourselves to
every mans conscience in the sight of
God.
The minister is to feed the flock of
God-taking the oversight thereof, not
by eonstraint but willingly; not as
lords and gods heritsge-being ensam-
pies to the flock, being faithful, and
when Christ shall appear you shall re-
ceivs crown of glory that fadeth not
away.
Now unto the King eternal, immor-
tai, invisible, the only wise God, be
honor and glory for ever and ever.

THE MINISTER IN THE
COMMUNITY.

| The minister, who is he-whois he
what is he--what of him-what says
the community in which he lives? The
minister, his calling, his qualification
his work and duty in the community
The minister that is called of God
qualified of the Holy Spirit and com
missiond by the Lord Jesus Christ
ought to be able TO say as the Apostle
Paul, II thank Christ Jesus our Lord,
who hath enabled me, for that he
counted me faithful putting me into
the ministry. Whereof was made a
minister according to the gift of the
grace of God, given unto me by the
effectual working OF his power" Again
hear what he says, "a minister must
be blameless, the husband of one wife,
vigilant, sober, of good behavior; given
to hospitality, apt to teach; not given
to wine, no striker, not greedy of filthy
lucre; but patient; not brawler not
covetious-one that ruieth well his
own house-having his children in sub
lection with all gravity. The minister
must have good report in the com
munity in which he lives--controling
we'll his household affairs, good be.
havior-ruling well his own house, as
tina apostle says for if man know not
how to or will not rule we'll his own
house how can he take care of the
church of God. Hence minister
should strive to make his own house.
hold subserviant to the church and tc
the kingdon of Christ. The minister
should endeavor to harmonize his
family with his work and not to dis
associate them from IT. His household
be consecrated household; a church
in the house.
Ministers are sometimes inclined to
be loose in the moral and religious
government Of their families. The ex'
cuse themselves on the plea of public
duties, ETC.; but no man should neglect
his own household duties for other
For if he provides not for his own

The community is watching to see
how the minister conducts home affairs
Hence tho minister should be on ex

of the church.

authority from Jesus the Christ. He
