Plenty Like Her,

Some people carry their selfish
ness right into church with them, a
truth which was brought home to
me Sunday morning by an incident
in one of the city's large churches.
Due to the arrangement of the
marble pillars. the pew in front Of
me would seat five or six persons.
but the kneeling bench would ac-
comodate only two comfortably and
three il all were of slender built.
This pew was occupied by a man
and his wife who had arrived early.
Long after the services had
started. a stout woman sailed down
the aisle past many empty pews.
entered this particular pew in front
of me and appropriated the end of
the kneehng bench. During the
whole of the service she was ut
terly unconscious of the fact that
the man, out of politeness, was
obliged to sit back on the edge of
his pew and was denied the privi-
lege of kneeling.
Had this woman been less selfish
she would have been on time in the
first place. and IL her tardiness was
unavoidable she should have stood
at the back of. the church and To-
Gated seat for herself. There were
plenty of them vacant. At lease
she should have requested an usher
to accommodate her.-A. ", 12iS d
