CHAPTER vi.

In spite of his determination to get
out and occupy his pulpit the first
Sunday of the next month Philip was
reluctantly obliged to let five Sundays
go by before he was able to preach.
During those six weeks his attention
was called to subject which he felt
ought to be made the theme of one Of
his talks on "Christ and Modern Socie-
ty." The leisure which he had for read
ing opened his eyes to the fact that
Sunday in Milton was terribly desecrat
ed. Shops of all kinds stood wide open.
Excursion trains ran into the large
city 40 miles away, two theaters were
always running with some variety
show, and the saloons, in violation Of
an ordinance forbidding it, unblushing
ly flung their doors open and did more
business on that day than any other.
AS Philip read the papers he noticed
that every Monday morning the police
court was more crowded with "drunks"
and ''disorderlies' than on any other
day in the week, and the plain cause Of
it was the abuse of the day before.
In the summer time baseball games
were played in Milton on Sunday. In
the fall and winter very many people
spent their evenings in card playing
or aimlessly strolling up and down the
main street. These facts came to Phil
ip's knowledge gradually, and he was
not long in making up his mind that
Christ would not keep silent before the
facts. So he carefully prepared a
plain statement of his belief in Christ's
standing on the modern use of Sun
day, and as on the other occasions
when he had spoken the first Sunday
in the month he cast out of his reckon
ing all thought of the consequences.
His one purpose was to do just as, in
his thought of Christ, he would do
with that subject.
The people in Milton thought that

"Why didn't you come and preach
for me last SundayT' asked Philip
quizzically.
"wny, haven't you heard? 1 dld not
get news of the affair until last Sat
urday in my western parish, and was
just in the throes of packing up to
come on to Elmdale."
"Elmdale?'

Philip gravely. "a minister must be

times in which we live. I'd like q

"Done," said Philip, with grin. And
just then Mrs. Strong forbade any
more talk Alfred staid until the even
ing train, and when he left he stopped
down and kissed Philips cheek. "It's
a custom we learned when in the Ger
man universities together that sum-
mer after college, you know" he ex-
planned, with the slightest possible
blush, when Mrs. Strong came in and
caught him in the act. 1t seemed to
her, however, like an affecting thing
that two big, grown up men like her
husband and his old chum showed
such tender affection for each other.
The love of men for men in the strong
friendship of school and college life is
one of the marks of human divinity.

and feeling the heartache grow in him
as the sin burden of the place weighed
heavier on him. Those were days
when Philip did much praying, and his
regular preaching, which grew in pow
er with the common people, told the
story Of his night vigils with the Christ
he adored.
1t was at this particular time that q
special event occurred which put its
mark on Philips work in Milton and
became a part of its web and woof, a
hard thing to tell, but necessary to re-
late as best one may.
He came home late one evening from
church meeting, letting himself into
the parsonage with his night key, and,
not seeing his wife in the sitting room,
where she was in the habit Of reading
and sewing, he walked on into the
small sewing room, where she some
times sat at special work, thinking to
find her there. She was not there, and
Philip opened the kitchen door and in
quired Of the servant, who sat there
reading, where his wife was.
II think she went up stairs q little
while ago." was the reply.
Philip went at once up stairs into his
study and to his alarm found that his
wife had tainted. She lay on the floor
in front of his desk. AS Philip stopped
to raise her he noticed two pieces Of
paper, one of them addressed to "The
Preacher and the other to "The
Preachers Wife" They were anony-
nous scrawls, threatening the lives Of
the minister and his wife. On his desk,
driven deep into the wood, was large
knife. Then said Philip with prayer.
"verily an enemy hath done this"
