Unless you crossed him and were unafilliating your church from the UPC!
This article was more of good old time OP logic that you must ban everything because everything leads to something bad.
You can't play Monopoly with dice because the next thing you know you will be in Vegas playing Craps with a blonde hoochie mama at your elbow rooting you on!
I think the article speaks for itself. The ultra cons will revel in it's clarion call for cookie cutter corporate legalism layed down by a preacher modeled after the Old Testament Judges and Prophets rather than Jesus Christ's ministry on earth.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
