Pastoral Parson and His Country Folks 
By Rev. George B. Gilbert 
’Most Ready? —“Are you ’most 
ready?” That is the Sunday morning 
question in this bouse. We love to go 
off all together in Old Daredevil (the 
name of our Ford) for Sunday, but some¬ 
times it is something of a elufre to get off 
in time. A few Sundays ago the Parson 
was booked for a service 11 miles away 
at 10 :30 a. m., another service five miles 
from there at noon, another three miles 
from there at 3 p. m., and another 14 
miles from there in the evening. The 
first two places were new to the Parson 
and he wanted particularly to get there 
early and get the lay of the land. The 
thermometer climbed above SO in the early 
morning. 
The Trouble Begins. — Somebody 
asked the president of a large factory 
ing to reach, and Moms had on her very 
best. togs. “My white shoes are spoiled, 
wailed Sit, above the roar of the engine. 
The Parson stopped and got out and in¬ 
vestigated. When he made the curve into 
the road the miljc can had tipped over, 
A Trifle Late. —Though we arrived 
just half an hour late, no one met us at 
the top had come off—and no wonder 
then* was a flood. 
the door or told us where the vestry room 
was, or what kind of a service they ex¬ 
pected, or what hymns had been selected, 
or whether they eared if we never came. 
IIow beautiful to begin a service with a 
calm and unruffled spirit born of a morn¬ 
ing spent in peaceful meditation and re¬ 
pose. 
Better Luck; —We were only 20 inin-

down the road here some time ago when 
his sou would be home from Europe. 
“Next Wednesday.” was the curt reply, 
“and then the trouble will begin.” But 
that week’s troubles of the Parsons began 
long before Wednesday. We had gotten 
the chores done and the breakfast out of 
the way and put up a dinner for eight to 
carry with us, and GO per cent of the 
children had hail full baths and 40 per 
cent half baths, and Shelley had gone 
over on a run to get the ear, and the 
Parson had rushed upstairs and was 
wrestling with a collar that took its de¬ 
sired place with all the sweetness and 
accommodation of a new tire on a rear 
wheel, when lie saw the boy coming back 
—without the car. “Can’t you start 
her?” he wailed down the stairway. 
An Untimely Death. —“Our means of 
transportation has failed us,” quoth the 
high school boy, “the storage battery is 
dead.” What an unfortunate time to ex¬ 
pire ! This car has to have outside pep to 
get her to going—not wholly alone in this 
world in that respect. We found by the 
phone that a neighbor had some dry cells 
h- used on a stationary engine, and we 
rushed over and got them. But they had 
been long used, and never an explosion 
from the machine. Nothing left but that 
.Shelley must go two and a half miles 
each way to buy some cells in the city. 
The Parson ordered them to be ready, 
over the ’phone, with the necessary wire 
connections. 
More Trouble. —It was a terribly hot 
morning, but at last the boy arrived. 
"The man said you would have to fix up 
some connections, as he was all out.” Of 
course this is uot a serious job, but it 
takes time. Then when we went to put 
them on. three of the little finger nuts 
that hold them had lost off coming out 
from the city. But we twisted them ou 
and cranked the machine—one slight ex¬ 
plosion and no more. We were just about 
to leave the car in utter despair when one 
of the boys noticed the lights on. Of 
course the lights took up the current. 
Turning them off, away she went. It was 
even now time that the service should 
have begun. 
Haste Makes Waste. —We rushed 
the car over to the house and proceeded 
to pack in the family, and the dinner. 
While Mrs. Parson had her hands on the 
spring lock, the Parson made a last dash 
into til house and fetched out a 12 -qt. 
can of water and put in back of the car. 
The children would need this for dinner 
and the err would need it before that 
time. Tin Parson sent the car across 
the yard and made the curve into tin 
highway at u pretty good clip, which was 
no sooner done than a. wild cry went up 
from Mother Parson on the back seat. 
“There is a terrible deluge of water here. 
My shoes and dress' are soaked. It is 
running all over everything.” It was a 
“swell” congregation we were wildly striv¬ 
utes late at the next place, but the people 
were ou to us here, and the last one was 
just turning the key in the church door, 
headed for home. “So sorry they have 
gone.” she said. But she needn’t have 
worried. The boys were so tickled at the 
thought of being a whole hour nearer the 
broiled rooster under the seat that they 
nearly collapsed, and the Parson was 
twice as tickled as they were, though he 
didn’t dare roar with laughter for fear 
the church people would hear him through 
the windows. 
A Fair Profit. —Down at one of the 
mission stations, where we are trying to 
pay for the new building—the rocking 
chair church—the ladies decided to feed 
the multitude at the town fair. Nothing 
was asked for the concession, as the asso¬ 
ciation was glad to have good food on 
hand. Practically all the food was con¬ 
tributed. including 38 homemade pies; 25 
loaves of bread went into the sandwiches. 
Hot dogs found a ready sale. The ladies 
seemed to have a fine time in their nice 
little tent handing out the stuff and raking 
in the shekels. They were a tired lot at 
night, but when they counted up the re¬ 
ceipts, they had cleared up $73.05. Prob¬ 
ably none of them had really enjoyed a 
fair so much before. The Parson kept 
busy with his car bringing in supplies as 
needed. 
A Birthday Party. —One of the other 
ways of raising money was to have a 
birthday party. Little birthday bags were 
sent out to all that might be interested 
i<> help, and after a while we had our 
birthday party. A little over .$50 came in 
this way. It is ouly a small mission, but 
the ladies put a check for $314 on the 
plate last Sunday, which shows what can 
be done when all are interested and work 
together. They made a lot on rummage 
sales. These sales are certainly good 
things. They bring many things from the 
attics and closets and put them to much 
good, instead of leaving them for the 
moths. We shall now hurry to put in the 
stoves—no furnaces for us—so that you 
can sit around and hear the fire crackle, 
and soon, as cold weather comes on, the 
odor of coffee will come up from below 
and there will he no long suffering from 
overlong sermons. 
Strikes. —The most we seem to read 
about now is strikes. The war, from 
being concentrated ou a few fronts, has 
now spread all over the world. An in¬ 
dustrial warfare, hut war just the same, 
with casualties recorded every day. As 
Christians, what attitude shall we take 
toward this industrial revolution, for a 
revolution it really is, with the power 
passing from one group to another. While 
with some phases of it we cannot sympa¬ 
thize. as the Boston police strike, yet ou 
tlie whole the Parson believes we ought 
to.-welcome it. All thoughtful people must 
see that things cannot go ou as they are. 
There was constant trouble before tho
