GUARANTY OF HIS SILENCE
Stopped Objectionable Noise Man
Thought Was Singing.

Unexpectedly a city pastor who en-
couraged congregational singing
gained a new parishioner. Keer
though his delight in hearing his PEG
pie sing, there was one member of his
flock whose endeavors he never en-
couragcd. But the man sang without
encouragement, much to the dlscom
future of pewholders anywhere nea
him, who claimed that his loud. un
musical voice threw them out of time
and tune
Repeated complaints convinced tho
minister that somebody would have
to assume the responsibility of 81
lencing the ambitious singer. He de.
cided that the mans wife was best
fitted for the job. Owing to diff
ference in religious views husband
and wife attended different churches,
but the minister knew her, so he
called and explained his predicament,
She was genuinely surprised
DO you mean to say he sings:"
she said.

She thought minute. Il shall
have to come there to church." she
said
81 shall be glad to see you" said
the minister, but what effect will
that have on your husbands sing
ing?"
The look she gave him was more
significant than words, and they
meant good deal.
John will never open his mouth
when l am around" she said.
And John never has.
