of Chapter Four, and in Verse Two OF
Chapter Five. Note the causes producing
the 'puffed up" condition:
l. Thinking of men more highly than we
ought to (Chapter Four, Verse Six This
causes us to be "pufed up one against an
other"
2. Some were "pufed up" because they
imagined Paul would not come unto them
(Chapter Four, Verse Eighteen) Some are
"puffed up today because the General
Overseer is not severe enough with them
3. Paul would go to Corinth and know
the power of them who are "puffed up
(Chapter Four, Verse Nineteen).
4. Would they have him come with a
rod or in love-? (Chapter Four, Verses
Twenty and Twenty
5. They were pulled up" in refusing to
discipline the (perhaps) rich { p and prom
ment CD fornicating member, by retain
ing him in their membership, thus condon-
ing his deed and tolerating, knowingly, gross
neglect in the Church Chapter Five, Verses
One and Two).
6. Paul rebuked them for their GLORY
ing He declared that little leaven would
leaven (sour, corrupt and ruin) the whole
lump, and exhorted them to "put away
from among them that wicked person. p
Chapter Five, Verses Six, Seven Eight,
Nine and Thirteen.) This is the great New
Testament lesson ON ABSOLUTE SEPA-
RATION. Compare II Corinthians OLA
Is and many other passages.
7. Paul would exercise his Apostolic
Authority as the General Overseer Ito
whom was committed ''the care of all the
Churches III Corinthians II :28) and ex-
pei the perverse fornicator from the mem
bership of the Church - Chapter Five,
Verses Three to Five.

YANKS AND BOCHE FIGHT
One American Loses Nfe-Several

Coblentz. March 24.-The American
army headquarters today completed
the investigation of a fight between
three American soldiers and a num-
Der Of German citizens at Gulz. a sub
urb of Cob1entz, on March 16. In
the fight one American private was
stabbed to death and another was
seriously wounded. while two Germans
sustained stab wounds. These men
with several other Germans are being
held for trial.
The Americans contend the fight
began when a German made remarks
reflecting upon Americans which were
resented by the soldiers. The Ger
mans maintain the Americans stopped
them on the street, destroyed their in
dividual permits and attempted to
separate a German girl from two
companions, one of whom was her
brother. This is the first fight which
has had fatal results that has occurred
since the American troops occupied
