Less Laudation of Men

At a recent Episcopal convention in San Francisco, to nominate candidates for a bishop, a motion was made to limit speeches to five minutes, whereupon Judge Stanley, chancellor of the diocese, remarked, "Three minutes is long enough to tell all the virtues of any man in the church." Sensible. If there were less laudation of men, the churches generally would be much better therefor.
