Fifteenth Psalm

fE Jehovah, who shall sojourn
- in thy tabernaclcf
Who shall dwell in thy holy hill :
= He that walketh uprightly. and
worketh righteousness.
And speaketh truth in his heart;
3 He that slandcreth not with
his tongue,
Nor docth evil to his friend.
Nor taketh up a rcproach
against his neighbor;
4 In whose eyes a reprobate is
despised.
But who honoreth them that
fear Jehovah;
He that sweareth to his own
hurt, and changeth not;
5 He that puttcth not out his
money to interest,
Nor taketh reward against the
innocent.
He that doeth these things shall
never be moved.

PREACHERS SOCKS TOO GAY

Methodist Pastor in Califor- mia Resigns Because of Friction Among
 Flock

If 8 minister's Methodist minister wears gay hose, turned up trousers and fashionable shirts. is he a sport and unfit to lead his flock? asks the Ssn Francisco Chronicle.
 Apparently the official board of the First Methodist Church of La Jara and Bowen thinks such a mode or dressing indicates sport" for, as result of charges brought against him, Rev. B. F. Turner, pastor of the church, who went to La lara from the East three months ago, has re- signed and his resignation has been accepted.
 When MT. Turner went to La lara he was mediately placed under in vestigatIon. Mrs Ella Hamilton, one of the church stewards, finally ac- quainted the minister with the fol- lowing beliefs:-
 That he turned up his trousers.
 That he wore cap.
 That his trousers were light color ed.
 That he went skating with the young people of the church.
 Summarized, she believed him a t'n1an of the wor1d.''
 Heated discussions before the board resulted in the minister's resignation, but failed to bring harmony, for the church board also has resigned.
