Prayer service Wednesday night at 8:15 o’clock. A cordial invitation to all. Rev. Dr. Shaw, of the Tenth Ave nue Presbyterian church, has keen ears. He heard something while at Barium, w'ell told of in “Our Father less Ones.” “THE LIMIT.” “After spending a few' weeks at Edgemont, Dr. A. R. Shaw, pastor of the Tenth Avenue Presbyterian church, Charlotte, N. C., came to Ba rium Springs to spend a few days. Shortly after reaching Barium Lodge he overheard a conversation near his door in w'hich the following statement was made by a lady from Georgia: "Well, tw'o preachers here now^ and a third one is coming. W’^hen he arrives I am going to leave.” This playful remark w^as made for the benefit of on^ of the ladies present whose husband is the “third preach- er.” Next morning Dr. Shaw composed a poem, the reading of which pro duced considerable merriment in the Lodfee. The poem embodies the Geor gia lady’s sentiment, or point of view. Dr. Shaw has yielded to a request to publish the poem in “Our Father less Ones.” This original production goes to the reading public in sup port of hi& contention that poets are born, not made. Some days igo I left my home In search of needed rest; I surely thought at Barium Lodge, There’ll be nothing to molest. So I packed my trunk and hurried off In eager expectation; After a long and dusty ride I’ve reached my destination. Well, here I am; and is it strange That I should be dejected? Two preachers on the ground, I find; A third is soon expected! The day he comes I’ll either go An^buy a flrst-class ticket; Or if I find the train is slow. I’ll make right off for the thicket. Chorus If a corn is on your toe, you can trim it; If the cream is on the milk, you can skim it; If a river’s in the way. you can swim it; ^ But three preachers at a time, thats the limit! “I thought you wanted a wweet- heart?” “I did.” “And now you are tired of him! "That’s all right; you prayed for a month for rain, and now you are tired of it, you didn’t pray to have it all the *lme.”—Hou»toa Post.
