It seems a far cry from the old
time under-paid and under-fee
preacher to the country minister ot
present day and age as exemplified by
the Rev. Bergstrasser, the newly ap
pointed divine of the North Branch
Evangelic church west of Avoca.
What do you suppose induced s
high class man to leave a church in
a thriving modern little city to go tr
a country cross roads church? Wt
are not going to let you guess. Wf
are going to tell you. We don't
wnat it to remain a secret. Maybe
some other congregation will tak
notice and try and anulate the exam
ple. The North Branch church i:
just an average country church that
needed new blood and went about
getting it by modern, up-to-date
business methods. Orrered a g"o
salary, and built a modern, up-to-date
parsonage, equipped it with run
ning water and installed a Delco
light plant, so when the preacher
moves in, he and his wife and fam
ily have as well and modernly equip
ped home as can be found in any city.
Where is the next, congregation whr
wish to show their appreciation for
their minister and his family. There
i is nothing to good for a good cause
and if your preacher isn't as good and
emcirnt as you think he ought to be,
put in a Delco electric light plant for
him and has family and seo if that
don't improve him an awful lot.
