Ed said you could tear the gears grinding clear out to the street and all the other mem bers would start looking at their watches, squirming around, thump ing the dust offn'h their hats, and glancing toward the door, Ed said it wastn' long till the preacher an nounced the money item ahead of the text fer his'Sermon. Incidental, Ed said this preacher told him anct he never did like that feller 1 ngersell nohow on account of him being a atherist and he was mighty glad when his dollar watch went up to $9 and folks like Abner had to quit buying it. Farfhermote, he told Ed, time pieces and the Lord's work didn't go together.
