in with his ideas at the morning service,
all but about a dozen women of five or
six hundred took off their hesdgear at
the evening service. The caustic re-
marks of the minister. who refused 20

his request

refuses to take off her hat, she can so

is not wanted here. You women can
take your choice. Either take your hats

that there were women in this congre-
