doned his wife and had drawn $500 which
they had as a Joint account in a building
and loan association. Mrs. Townsend and
her children were left without funds and
went back TO her parents, at No. is west

EVENING CHAT
By RUTH CAMERON

The author-man was reading aloud to us
the other night.
There's an awfully clever parody on
the 23rd Psalm somewhere in this maya
zine, that I want you people to hear" he
said, as he consulted the table of con-
tents.
Excuse me-" said the man-who-thinks.
with a vigorous accent on the second
word. Anything but a parody for me,
please. But don't let me keep the rest
I'll take a stroll out in the kitchen for
a glass of water.
Now what is the matter with you,''
queried the author-man, Isn't this a new
wrinkle?"
mo. it is not" said the man-who- thinks
i've had too many beautiful things
spoiled by parodies already, and I made
up my mind some time ago that I'd never
listen to another if 1 could help it,
Can you ditto the author-man's exper-
I certainly can, and should think most
A clever parody is a mighty clever piece
of work. Unfortunately, its very clever
ness is apt to make it unforgetable- If we
could read, laugh, and forget, that would
be all right, but how often can we do
that2
We hear the parody once or twice and
from then we can never hear the real
thing without having its beauty OF its
sacredness stained or entirely Obliterated,
by the quick flashing recollection of the
clever but silly imitation.
Several beautiful hymns have been spoil
ed for me in this way. To my dying day,
l don't believe I shall be able to hear the
splendid strains of the Lohengrin wedding
march without singing over in my mind,
Here comes the bride, etc" For the sake
of those fortunate enough to have missed
that example of literary vandalism, I for
bear to go on with the quotation.
Perhaps you are saying that I lack
sense of humor to take the matter so ser
iouSly. I wonder If 1 do. Really I don't
think so. I can see the fun in a parody
as well as anyone, and laugh at it
heartily, but it seems to me the price is
too high. There are SO many things just
as funny that don't have any string tied
TO them. Why not laugh at these and
not take away the beauty and solemnity
of something worth while, for the sake of
a little momentary amusement.
Who will join the man-whO-thinks and
me in our resolution not to read or listen
to any more parodies on beautiful or
sacred things?
