PREACHER PASSES THE BUCK

Elsewhere in this issue OF The Re.
porter, under the heading of "voice
OF the People" will be found a com
munication from the pen OF Rev VIM
Poyseor OF Crystal Falls. We are not
publishing this article because Mr.
Foyseor asked us TO do so, but to
show what d--n fools some people
can make OF themselves. During the
past few months our friend Poyseor
has become good deal like an un-
ruly Ford car, runs wild without oc-
casion for so doing. Evidently the
Irish have gotten on his nerves and
he is unable 10 control himself, as
can be plainly seen from a perusal OF
his wonderful effusion. for as a pas
ser or the buck he Is certainly won
der.
Whoever heard of Poysor becoming
a reformer until the Irish got ON his
nerves last summer? Why we did
not even pedp when his congregation
over here repudiated the action of
the minister in charge OF his church.
and the poor fellow found II very con
yenient TO enter plea Of illness in
order TO get away from the unfortu-
nate furore that had been created by
the frothings OF his superior.
When the Rev. Poyseor intimates
that the editor OF The Reporter be
longs TO clubs in which gambling Is
carried on and liquor is sold he in
timates or says what is absolutely
untrue-the writer belongs 10 no
such clubs. We will admit for his
especial benefit, so that he will not
think we are lodging. that we did

In conclusion. the writer as part OF

The weeks happenings abroad
must impress the average American
with the wisdom shown by the Amer
lean people IN Withholding their ent-
rance into the League OF Nations, at
least until the rough spots of the
compact are ironed out and European
complications developing from the
war are settled. Foremost among
the happenings was the withdrawal
OF Argentina from the League OF Ma
tions. Another happening was the
vote OF the people OF Greece to bring
back Constantine as their king, not
withstanding he had been shunted
out OF Greece during the war because
OF his pro-German leanings. The
three great powers, England, France
and Italy have served notice of their
disapproval OF the recall OF Constan-
tine by refusing further financial aid
and demanding payment OF outstand-
ing obligations. There are many
sore spots TO be healed over yet in
the European situation and America
is wise not 10 be where she would he
