Poor Hand In q Bible Glass.


A woman Of Louisville, KY, who en-
joys a game Of cards. recently visited
a friend in Indianapolis. Sunday
morning came, and the hostess invited
her visitor to accompany her to Sun
day school. 1t is the practice OF the
teacher of the Bible class Of which the
hostess is a member to ask each men,
Der of the class to read verse from
the Bible and comment on it. The
visitor from Louisville had not been
informed of the teachers custom.
However, the teacher seemed to think
that visitors as we'll as regular mem
bers should participate, and when the
member next to the visitor had read
her verse and made her comment the
teacher smilingly looked toward the
visitor. The visitor appeared to be
:. disconnected for a moment, and then
she hastily said. II pass."-1ndianap'

Severe.
A story Is going the rounds at
certain university regarding one OF the
sarcastic professors, who was recently
conducting an oral examination In
very scientific study.
There was one student, handsome,
easy and self possessed. who appeared
to be utterly ignorant Of the simplest
phases of the subject.
Professor w. put question after
question to him without receiving one
intelligent reply. Finally the student
said naively: ..
"Tm very unfortunate, professor;
you never ask me anything know"
The professor said nothing. but
gravely tore off tiny piece Of paper
from q convenient pad.
"Here, Mr.. b." he said. handing 1t
to the student, write all you know.

He followed mining from the spring
of '53 to the fall of 49, experienc-
ing the good and bad fortunes of the |

removed to Jackson, the county seat,
and is still advocating democracy i'm
that city. He sold the Dispatch and
