Clement Tells School of Religion at Howard University Things for Young Preachers to Guard Against. Familiarity with women, liquor, unfortunate marriages and unsym- pathetic and Jjealous wives were classified as some of the reasons leading to the failure of a minister to succeed by Rev. George C. Clement of Louisville, Ky., Blshop of the Afri- can M. E. Zion Church, at today's session of the cighth annual convo- cation of the school of religion of Howard University. “A minister who is familiar with women, especially those in his con- gregation, might just as well tie a rope around his neck and drop from a tree” said Bishop Clement. “There is no place in the ministry for a drunkard. An igornant, jealous preacher's wife is as bad as a wicked one—that sort of a woman will ruin him." Ministers who air their personal | grievances from the pulpit and those who fail to pay their juet debts also ' have little chance of success in the ministry, Bishop Clement pointed out, “Somehow we ministers are too often looked upon as a poor debt- paying class,” he said. “It's all wrong.” Cites Specific Cawe. Bishop Clement then told of a per- sonal investigation he made of a case of a minister who had failed to pay - | his debts and found that the largest Dbill was owed to a photographer for | pictures of himself, a majority of which had been distributed to the | female members of his congregation. At the outset of his speech Bishop Clement referred to a magasine article by Rupert Hughes on “Why I Quit Golng to Church” and declared that the noted author had given no valid reason for his desertion from the church. “The church need not be afraid that intellectuals and 100 per cent Americans will stop going to church.” he declared. Unification of the missionary and educational work carried on by the various church denominations in Literia was urged by Rev. Matthew W. Clair, bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, who spoke on “Con- ditions in Africa.” He also empha- sized the need of better educational facilities in the little Bast African republic, especially an up-to-date colléege. Big Opportunity Open. “There is no botter place in the world for missionary work and king- dom building than in Liberia,” de- clared Bishop Clair. “It is up to the Christian forces of this country to ald in that work."” The convocation will close - this afternoon with a round table discus- sion of “The Ixducation,of Negro Min- isters,” conducted by Dr. Robert L. Kelly of New York City. Preceding the round table discussion Prof. Ster- ling N. Brown, director of the Howard University school.of religious exten- sion department. and Rev. R. C. Ran- som of Nashville, Tenn. bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, will speak.
