A preacher once said, Editors
dare not tell the truth. If you did
you could not live. Your paper
would be a total failure. The
editor replied "You are right, and
the minister who at all times tells
the bare truth about his members,
alive or dead, will not occupy the
pulpit more than one Sunday and
he will find it necessary to leave
town in a hurry. The press and
pulpit go hand in hand with white
wash brushes and kind words, mag
nifying little virtues into big ones
The pulpit, press and gravestones
are great saint-making triumvi-
rate" And the minister went away
looking very thoughtful while the
editor turned to his work, telling
about surprising beauty of the
bride, while in fact she was as ugly
as mud fence. -Starksville News.
