Between Two Stools.

Not long ago, a gentleman riding
down on tie train with Bishop Whit
aker asked if the statement made in
the ATgonaut that the Episcopalians
of California owed Bishop Kip about
$4,000 was true. The Bishop said he
did not think the amount was over
$4,000.
"How came that much to be owed?'
asked the quizzical layman.
"Well," replied the Bishop, 81 think
1 can explain the matter. You see,
Bishop Kip is also rector Of the
Church of the Advent. The Parish
thought the Bishops salary from the
Diocese of California was enough to
keep him in good style, SO the Parish
of the Advent paid him nothing then
the Diocese of California thought that
his salary as rector of the Church of
the Advent was enough without any
diocesan assistance, so they paid him
nothing. and of course, between the
two his salary fell short"
