The time has come that some
of the young people should call a
halt in their conduct while at
church. The pastor of one OF
the leading churches were so an
noyed that he was compelled to
stop in his sermon last Sunday
evening, and insist on having
order. It is to be, hoped that the
actions of some will never be re-
peated again. No true lady or
gentleman can afford to disturb
religious meetings. If their edu-
cation can not, their common
sense should raise them above
such conduct and keep them
away from such association.
