Ministers must know how to lose arguments on non-essential matters. Care must be taken not to harangue others into silence. Preachers have a way with words. Their whole career is related to the skillful communication of ideas. It is a disgraceful fact that some ministers love to talk and have a habit of dominating discussion on every subject. Even when ignorant on an issue, a preacher can usually out-talk knowledgeable men. Thus in a controversy it is possible to silence men by sheer force of verbiage without convincing them. How exemplary would it be if all ministers exercised self-control over their tongues in the church! It is to be feared that some men are able to handle texts of Scripture who cannot discipline themselves.

and peel. Blend carrots and squash together. Don't over-blend: preserve
some texture. Add cinnamon sugar and salt to taste.
Add frothy eggs to carrot/squash mixture.  Grease an 8-inch loaf pan. Coat
the grease with oatmeal.  Mix about 1/2 cup oatmeal into casserole. Gently
fold in green peas, then put mixture in casserole pan. Sprinkle remaining
oatmeal on top and dot with butter. Bake at 350 degrees F. 30 to 40 minutes

  NOTES:
*  Butternut squash and carrot casserole -- A delicious Thanksgiving or
Christmas casserole.  My mother makes this at the holidays. I don't know
where she originally got the recipe. Yield: Serves 10.
*  Cinnamon sugar is a mixture of sugar and powdered cinnamon. Commercial
cinnamon sugar mixtures are mostly sugar. My mom prepares her own mixture
with the emphasis decidedly on the cinnamon.
