The Huron Expositor, 1929-06-07, Page 4COLLEG ATE $11TUATi ION e a,stion of the Seaforth Col- e Institute Board in asking for resignation of every member of present staff, without gig ing Mase or reason, and then inserting an advertisement in the Toronto Globe asking for seven new teachers, has caused much talk and much criticism in Seaforth and out of it, during the past week or two. There are, of course, two sides to every question. The Collegiate Board must have had reasons, which to them, justified their action, or they would not have taken it, but possess- ing these, it would have been fairer to the staff and better for the school if they had publicly stated them. The unfairness to the teachers is apparent to every one, in the position it will place them with other members of the teaching profession and with other Boards of Education through- out the Province. The unfairness of such action towards the pupils, at this time, is likewise apparent, and the record of the school will not be improved by it during the next few years, It was unfair to all and it was unnecessary. We believe it is the duty of every town newspaper to give expression to public opinion on every public ques- tion, or we would not have made com- ment on this. At the same time, it is not the duty of a newspaper to fire the balls manufactured by outsiders, no matter on what questions, nor on which side of the question they may be intended. If any reputable person wishes to enlarge on the comments of The Expositor, or to contradict them, the columns of this paper are freely open to him or to her. ea- elr Rene o, � igisaee to the: laws of 4.bpl gains are too e ale to a.ct. ,these >laaolsixag for Material enetterdee Even the hope/of WON a eoa&alletenes for old age in the" eteele ity of eases is denied the faithful minister, 'les appeal is, only s b to those vision is set on a noble career of self-sacrifice and devotion - and it is chiefly such as thews that answer it. And these servants of God are the very pillars of the temple of civilisa- tion and if these pillars are over- thrown the whole edifice comes crash- ing to the ground, as it did in the case of unhappy Russia. Time after time the experiment of living with- out God has been attempted by mis- guided men and women and it has al- ways ended in chaos, social and finan- cial, no less than spiritual. For a few superficial critics to call these es- sential ministers to human happiness and stability dull or dogmatic or un- convincing or emotional or wanting in understanding is an anticlimax attri- butable only to the natural ebullien,:e of hasty youth. THE MIN]STE 'S PREDICAMENT An editorial from the Los Angeles Times: With commendable courage a Los Angeles pastor recently invited the younger members of four different churches to say frankly ,what they considered the chief faults and short- comings ho •t- l comings: of modern ministers, and read the results of their findings at an op- en meeting. Being given carte blanche the youngsters were not back- ward in bringing a heavy bill of com- plaints against their pastors, summed up in that general allegation -so of- ten brought by inconsiderate husbands against self-sacrificing wives --that the ministers "do not understand them." A list of the many grievances list- ed proves on the other hand that these youthful critics do not under- stand the preachers, or at any rate that they do not appreciate the tre- mendous burden under which the mod- ern minister labors. Generally they accused the preachers of being dull, •dogmatic, too emotional, lacking con- victions and a sense of humor and be- ing poor salesmen of the gospel. The ministers accepted the indictment good-naturedly and even admitted that there was some justification for the criticism. While some of the charges no doubt hold good against some individuals of the clerical profession, in the main there is no other ,profession -law, medicine, edncationi science, ' en- gineering, national defense -less de- serving of such hasty juvenile con- demnation. Some preachers are over- emotional, some are too dogmatic, •some mistake theology for Christian- ity, some think more of selling them- selves to the public than of selling the gospel. But to the great body of our religious ministers, Protestant, -Catholic or Jewish, their office is a sacred trust and inside their human limitations they fulfill it not only to the very best of their abilities, but in "a manner that compares more than favorably with the achievements of the average business man. Probably few laymen stop to con- sider the predicament of the modern minister. No professional man has to reconcile more conflicting elements if he expects to hold his public and at the same time maintain the dignity of his calling. If he adheres firmly to the tenets of the church iri" whose service he is enlisted he is ton dog- matic. If he departs from the strict letter of its creeds he is lacking in conviction. If he limits himself to propounding orthodox texts he is dull and dry. If he throws himself irto the struggle for suffering humanity be is too emotional. If he restrains his sense of humor he lacks interest; if he indulges it he shocks the con- ventional. It is hard to see how even the best of ministers can avoid all the accusa- tions so easily brought against his profession by those who have never experienced its trials. No calling makes so exhaustive a demand on human endurance or re- quires more tact and discrimination to keep the balance even among its Malay duties. The minister must be a scholar to the scholarly, a society man to the social set, a divine in the >lalit, business man to his board of directors, a good mixer with people in general, a ready sympathizer with the unfortunate, a martinet in defense of his beliefs, liberal with human weaknesses, reactionary to any breach of the moral code, a good sportsman, care up-to-date 1 salesman and a dig- r�fifi�l ere' larr of the mighty truths eatt feint d stock in trade --all for 'MUM a lee than that of a bricklayer. t the f that it is so enacting, ee fall--tien, 90 alrntast tfnattain- 101 .;u 4 ` effiejeethee constitutes the othaellaPetia mitiotry., Pot this o r niteld Whet' tifttetatted to itself "Oita Agnate wide the Pea cola .`' Rh e» who hasbeen age eoa Meant in' the Bade of Comaerce here,, for the pest ten months.; left this Week far Naa area.
