Well, no need to look solemn;
If you haven’t got what you desire,
Put an ad. in the want column.
The Presbyterian church at Rouseville, torn down years ago, was built, paid for, furnished handsomely and run nine months before having a settled pastor. Not a lottery, fair, bazaar or grab-bag scheme was resorted to in order to raise the funds.
The Salvation Army once scored a sensational hit in the oil-regions. A lieutenant struck a can of nitro-glycerine with his little tambourine and every house in the settlement entertained more or less Salvation-Army soldier for a month after the blow-up.
“Like a sawyer’s work is life—
The present makes the flaw,
And the only field for strife
Is the inch before the saw.”
