The Minneapolis Forum critic
made a ten strike when he said
last Sunday it was most unfortu-
nate when people elected to come
late to the meetings of that body.
The Forum meets only twice a
month in a session that lasts only
for one hour and a half. Late
corners lose much of the value of
it's usually excellent program, dis
turb the speaker, discommode
those who have come on time.
Of course this matter of being
late is not confined to our own peO-
pie. But that is no reason why
we should not correct a fault so
widely prevalent among us and a
cause of the failure of many worth
while efforts, churches suffer; bust
ness appointments suffer, all from
the same inexcusable unwillingness
of people to go where they should
when they should. An occasional
reminder like that given in the
Forum Sunday is a word well
spoken.
One of our paper boys lost a
customer last week. She said the
paper didn't have any news in it.

people all of the time, some of the
people part of the time, and some
of the people none of the time.
