The Trials
OF Preacher
By Rev. A. w. Bealer.

The average man fancies that preach
er rides through the world on howery
beds of ease, that few waves of trouble
roll across his peaceful breast and that,
living on the fat of the land he has every
day foretaste of the heaven about
which he breaches and to which his eyes
are often turned.
And yet this is just where the average
man makes one of the greatest mistakes
that is charged to him on the book of
life. have been meditating on the tri-
ais that come into the life of a preacher.
He is only man and he enjoys the same
things that other men enjoy and dislikes
the same things that other normal men
dislike. ..s
One of the trials of his life is to have
a white man call him Reverend" The
general rule is that negroes try to acl
like the whites. Joe Jones used to say
that the ruination' of this country was
that poor folks tried to be like rich
folks and negroes tried to be like Uhite
folks. But in this case the tables are
turned and the white man who speaks
of Reverend Blank or writes Of him as
such in the papers is aping the negroes.
they call most white men Cap" The Gus
tom appealed to certain thoughtless white
men and they took it up and began TO
Cdll every nlllc Spil5 VI idNyS VIM
nad a big tongue, Colonel Then they
heard the negroes speaking of Reverend
Smith or Reverend Jones and they tonk
it up. The newspaper reporters have
caught the bad habi, and you often see
them writing about Reverend Black or
Reverend White.
If there is anything on earth that gives
me a pain it is to have a white man who
appears to be well informer call me Rev
erend." Let him put the title Mr." to
my name in addressing me, or if he writes
IT let it be Rev. Mr.. Bealer.
The habit is niggery in the extreme
and it ought to be tabOoed by the best
people. Let the newspapers. molders OIL
public opinion take up this matter and
begin to treat preacher with becoming
dignity and then other folks will stop
the practice which has now become al
most as popular as it is to say II dis
remember" 1t is almost as popular to
speak of the preacher as Reverend as
IL is to call the little lawyer Colonel,
it is almost as niggery as it is to speak
OF the white man as cap"

Another trial that comes to a preacher
as we'll as other men when they go fish-
ing is to hang a good fish, pull him to the
top of the water and then lose him. He
feels that life Is vain and is not really
worth the living after such catastTo-
phe has dropped its raven mantle across
his pathway.
Not long ago I was fishing. got a
good bite and jerked. I hung the FISH. He
bent the pole almost double and charged
around in the hole at a great rate. I got
him to the top Of the water and saw that
il was a Jack. He made another plung &c
and was gone toward the bottom. My
friend. who was with me, said 1t was be-
cause he had seen my face. played him
around very carefully and then pulled
him toward the shore, Suddenly the line
slackened. He was gone. Have you ever
had the camp meeting platform to give
way with you while you were speaking?
Have you ever had the limb Of the tree
on which you were sitting to break OF
with you and drop. you to the ground?
II you have experienced either of these
sensations. you know just how I felt.

loss. have persuaded myself that II
Yves the largest fish I have ever hooked
Whenever I go in the neighborhood OF that
hole approach It on stealthy feet. as II
I were stalking a tinlid deer. I will walk
a half a mile to reach that hole. have
an idea that the Jack Is still lingering
about. want to get even with him for
having given me such a near catch"
It has been two years now since hook
ed him him and am beginning to lose
hone. I fear that will never have the
pleasure Of handling that ungrateful fish
He ate UP the bait had gathered with so
much labor and then refused TO show his
gratitude by letting me catch him.

One Of the greatest trials that comes
into my life today, and I think I speak
for the whole army of preachers I'm Geor-
gia, is to see the rapidity with which the
monthly check melts away in the warmth
of the bills that are presented by the
grocer. the butcher and the baker.

cratic feeling to have a little money In
the bank. can nreach better with bill

You know how that is yourself. But
hardly has the money been deposited

bill. His -four. meat and lard and In
fact everything else is so high that he
can make a preachers check dwindle

probability OF flour going down in the

well remember the time when good fry

went as low as ten cents dozen. Now

There are some other trials that come
to a preacher when he goes fishing in the
OchIochnee river. It Is a beautiful little
stream Of wine colored water that winds
across the sands that are as white as the
driven snow and that crunch like the sand
of the sea shore when you walk across
1t. The bed of the stream is as full Of
roots and snags as a dogs back is full of
hairs. Sometimes you come to hole IN
which the water is eddying around and 1t
as smooth as a mirror. 1t looks as If
it were full of fish and in you drop
your hook. 1t is not long before you
discover that like the human heart there
are ugly things beneath the surface.
When you go to draw up your line 1t
hangs on some sort Of snag, You pull
and twist and jerk and coax that, line
but It viii not come up and there is but
one way, to pull it straight in to you.
until the hook or the line breaks. This
Is not very conducive to peaceful
thoughts. There is but one thing to do
and that is to put on another line. You
feel that It is all right and in you drop
1t again You get splendid bite and as
you jerk it you get no fish but you gel
hung on a hidden log at the bottom of
the river. Your patience is strained by
this time and you give vicious jerk or
two AID suddenly. the line flies out Of the
water only to hang in a hopeless mess on
the limb of a dead tree above your head.
At time like this generally call on
one of my deacons who is with me to ex-
press my feelings. 1t looks like something
is Just obliged to be said. OF course he
cannot EXPRESS himself in the presence
of his pastor and we compromise the mat
ter by singing verse Of some well-known
Of
better promoter of patience than a days
fishing on the Ochlochnee river.
This is the time Of year when the fishing
is good. This year there has been so
little rain that the river is very low, and
few large Dream have come UP stream.
Still you can catch enough to make a
fine breakfast and since automobiles have
come into such general use 1t is a very
easy thing to run down the country p or
80 miles, get there by sunrise and be
home again with a fine string of fish for
supper.
