Since there is considerable interest in this subject, I will provide the exact quote. Keep in mind this is one man's opinion. However, it is a man who had considerable knowledge of the inner workings of the society at that time."An amusing incident took place at the time of the Judge's visit. The director of our German branch, as had many before him, had grown a large beard, patterned after Charles T. Russell's beard. The judge did not want anything at all to remain which might remind him of Russell - not even the cultivation of a beard. So, sitting at the table for dinner one night within my ear shot, the Director asked the Judge for one more large rotary press. The Judge said nothing for awhile, merely ate. Then suddenly he looked up, his eyes pinned severly on the Director's huge beard and said, 'I will buy you the press if you take that thing off,' pointing to the beard. It surely shocked the Director's sensibilities, but he meekly heeded the warning and soon shamefacedly appeared minus his beard."
