(By the Associated Press.) ; ; ?
Lexington, Ky., Sept. ft.Mrs,
Mildred Simpson Allen, wife of ; R.

shot and killed herself. She was a

,1 heard a preacher say some time
ago that he had about quit preaching
on dancing, and theater going, and
card playing .as. specialties but In
cluded them all under the same cate
gory,;; His idea is now that the groat
menace of the church ia the social
life and - the intense, commercial ac
tivity,.' He told me that in his prayer-meeting
talks he laid stress on
this matter and insisted that tbe j
women had too many functions to ,
look after. In the old days South
ern women were stay-at-homers, very
tew Of them had riches but now we
are all well-to-do, with plenty of
money to spend and are vieing with
each other; and seeing who could give
greatest ; entertainment and most
lavish spreads. After the prayer-
meeting talk a woman who was espe
cially Interested In society came to
him and said: "Drv- , I feel the
force -of you s talk; the truth Is, I
have so many functions in the after
noons during the week-to look after
that It ; is absolutely - impossible for
me to give any attention to church
work In the day time.. But I Intend
to. cut out In each week one after
noon and henceforth you may call on
me for religious work on Tuesday of
each .' week.'! r Of ' course- this little
story from. tha. preacher tickled me,
especially.:. sthe. quaint. manner in
which he spoke of her giving him
fuesday' in eacn. week, for religious
work; ' -1 have nothing" ta say. about
society but I guess the poor , must
feel very much the weight ; ot the
high social ; life in - this day.. : Of
course the poor women can not have
these: things and necessarily must
make them feel heavily, .what a low
place they occupy in, society. Some
tiAid ago I heard some colored wor
men talking about their entertain
ment and one of them said that .their
circle was going to. have a "FUNC
TOM" and she wanted all to be sure
and come out, that the admission fee
as.ten' cents and the money would
go nib the church. , - s .1
' Now I .have not time to keep up
with high life, even if the disposi-,
tion existed, but I see enough to be
lieve that the extravagant high liv

people who aspire to' lead In these
great functions- but possess, not the
