The Tampa Times sounds the fol-

This Is rather q crucial time for

AsToNlsHED THE GOOD SISTERS

An old printer evolved the idea OF
getting up a prayer book and his
minister gave him every encourage
ment and helped him get It out.
After the prayer books were printed
the old man went to see the minister
again, and said to him; Nov, one
more favof'I wish to ask of you, when
you are finished with your sermon,
Sunday morning, kindly announce to
the congregation that have prayer
books for sale"
The minister promised he would do
this.
After the sermon, Sunday morning,
the minister forgot all about the
promise he had made to the old man,
to announce about his book, but said
to the congregation: "All you ladies,
who. have babies to be baptised,
bring them this afternoon for bap-
tism."
The old printer, who was hard OF
hearing. thinking that the minister
was announcing his prayer book. got
up and said: yes. and all you ladies
who haven't any. can get the.white
ones for so cents, and black ones for
