Ex-Monmouth Pastor Paints and Preaches Although the time-worn customs o f " t o jn d ” and “ barrel” parties ¡have long since ceased m e x i s t , they never were o f much signifi­ cance to Rev. F. M. Fisher, pastor o f the Milwaukie Evangelical church, who has a much newer and better method by which he covers his deficiencies in salary— but he ! insists that the deficiency in his ease j cannot be blamed upon his little j congregation, for they are paying all that they can afford. Recent statistics have shown that a little over 9 cents each week is the con­ tribution o f over 30,000,000 Prot- ' estant church members in the country toward the maintenance of their ministry, but Rev. Mr. Fisher does not even need that. He is a painter by trade and although he points out that his calling of the ministry is his first duty, he still I has time to ply the brush and to I keep his family o f three children and his wife living comfortably in their Milwaukie home. Eighteen years ago Rev Mr. Fisher and Mrs. Fisher first settled in Milwaukie where he delivered his weekly ser­ mons from the pulpit o f the Mil­ waukie Evangelical church, but he has not spent all that time there. At the end o f four years they moved to Jefferson, where the minister took over the pastorate o f the church of his calling. His stay in Jefferson was limited to two years, when he was trans­ ferred to Salem. A two-year period in Salem ended and he was For Sale— Team o f mares weigh­ ing respectively 1300 and 1000 lbs., wagon and harness for $160. The wagon is a Shuttler with 3 inch tire.

W e Stand or Fall By This T est — 1 sent to Seattle where he also spent two years, and from Seattle he took the jump back to Monmouth, where, after a two-year period, just six years ago he moved again to Portland and then was forced to devote all his time to plying his trade o f painting. This he did for several years, and then he moved out to the little West Portland community, where the calling o f the pulipt again sent him into active preaching there, although he points out that the small congregation could not nearly afford to pay him a salary in this locality, so he kept up his work and preached on the side. A year ago in May he was again asked to come to the Milwaukie Evangelical parsonage, where he now lives and where every Sunday he takes up his w ork in the pulpit. During the past winter his three children suffered from a great deal of sickness, and out o f his meager earnings the minister found it a physical impossibility to pay the doctor and drug bills and still pro­ vide a living for the family. So to pay the doctor bills, Rev. Mr. Fish­ er has again taken up his paint brush and has a contract with his physician, Dr. L. L. Hewitt, where­ by his bill will be settled when the residence is completely painted in its new coat. ‘ ‘ I may believe a little differently about this business than some people do” , he said, "fo r 1 did not believe when I began my preaching that it was a profession. I felt the natural call to the pulpit and 1 do not think that any man should take up the ministry as a profession un­ less he is called. No; I had no idea of taking up the ministry when 1 arrived in the northwest from my old home state of Iowa.” he contin­ ued. “ That was in 1892 and 1 was a full-fledged painter and had come to the far west to try my fortune” . "But it isn’t so unusual for a preacher to be a painter also,” he concluded,.“ for I have an acquaint­ ance who gave up the ministry for fh e painting and paperhanging business a few years ago, and now he is making lots o f money. " I don’ t believe that is a reflec tion on him, though, for he had a large family and he had to take some other method o f making his livelihood.” The Milwaukie painter-pastor is 54 years o f age and strong and hale and looks as if he could handle many a painting job in the future if necessary. But he does not feel that he will do much more work of this nature after he gets the doctor bill paid. He finds that it takes too much o f his timeaway from his calling, so he will be going back to Milwaukie to his pulpit work ex­ clusively soon.— Oregonian.
