PASTOR'S FLOCK IS PAYING

j pastor here, is paying his alimony.
^ | His wife divorced him and the Rev.
j j Walker left town without attending
t'j to the forinality of paying her aliq

. j Last week. Mrs- Walker and a depcJuty
sheriff descended on the church,
"i armed with attachments. They took
*j 193 chairs, a vacuum cleaner, an el^
ectric refrigerator, a grand piano
and a xylophone?not to montio? q

r | very well without the xylophone, but
[ 1 the singing was a hit off key without '
j! the piano, especially as the congre- ,
j cation had to sit on the floor to '
sing. J
Monday the sheriff was to auction ,
| off the church furniture. Several
buyers were on hand. One admitted ]
_ he was a bootlegger and wanted thei!
refrigerator to keep home-brew in.
But the congregation had had en- '
a ough sitting on the floor. Just as the
i< auction was starting a delegation arh
rived and offered to pay Walker's ;
b alimony in return for the furniture. ,
a Mrs. Walker got $150, her iawyer
y got $200, and the church signed a ;
j- note for $500, which is what Walker ,
still owes his wife.
