Often On His Knees
When Rev. 0. left a Boston pastorate for a church in Idaho, the Rev,
X. took his place. Six month later a
visitor to Boston asked Mrs. Blank,
deaconess:
" I low do you like your new pastor?"
" Welt," replied the church worker,
" Brother X. is pleasant, and he
preaches good sermons, "but" — and
here came a sigh —"he doesn't hold

What He Really Wanted
A small boy went inside a store
that displayed a sign, " Boy Wanted."
" What kind of a boy docs ycr

" Why. a decent boy," said the
merchant. " One who is quick, doesn't
swear, smoke cigarettes, whistle
around the office, play tricks

"Oh. say, Boss," interrupted the
hoy, "Ycr don't want no boy; ycr

Passing the Hat.
T once attended an old fashioned
ciillud nicetin' down in Georgia.
After an invigorating sermon on
the advantages of living straight
and keeping away from your
neighbor's chicken coop, the venerable parson passed the hat for
the regular Sunday morning collection. He had no ushers for this
purpose, probably having made up
liis mind that this particular office,
like the preacbin', could hardly be
trusted to other hands.
After the hat had made the
rounds of the congregation and
was returned to the pulpit, he
gazed into its depths and finding
next to nothing in the way of a
collection, raised his eyes heavenward and exclaimed, "Oh, Lawd, we
thank yo for yo many munificences,
but most ob all, Oh Lawd, we is
thankful for de return oh de hat."
