INI IDEM IN THE LIKE Of A rOl'NTKY PASTOR I had just preached on "Absolem, M> Son" and was passing out the side exit of the church for reasons well known to ministers, that the effect of that particular sermon should not be dissipated as usual In the stereotyped hand-shakes and conventional compliments of the people in the front vestibule, when I was halted by the sad Solicitous faca of a care-worn mother. Her only speech was the agitated gripping of my hand, but I interpreted her suppressed sobs as an invitation to make a pastoral call. This I performed promptly early that week. The door opened before 1 rung the bell. I wan expected and forthwith escorted to the front room
or ‘‘parlor.”
Here my hostess launched into the subject, which she assumed I had come to discuss, almost precipitously.

The girls employed at the Allen jfn| j n business. Why should her son
go astray? The answer was not in her Ihf divorce suit of Mrs Orlena
Wlldman against her husband. Wesley W, Wlldman, which is being tried In the Putnam Circuit Court today, Is attracting a large crowd of Cloverdaie people to Mo* court room. The Wildmans live just east of Cloverdaie. Mr*. Wlldman filed suit for divorce alleging cruel and inhuman treatment. The husband filed a counter complaint, alleging cruel trentinent on the part of his wifi*. Tlie collide had lived together many years and the case is a
story which was too familiar to require my whole attention to under-
stand It.
But the answer was very manifest in that same “parlor” in which our dialogue occurred. As we entered the room my hostess raised the darM| green shades so that we could see each other in the broad daylight The windows, however were not opened, although the air within was damp and musty, while the aid without wa*

haircloth settee and leaned my elbow on the little white "tidy” neatly pinned over its arm, 1 saw the answer to her question. In the center of the room was a little walnut table with a white marble top, while the pile of ocean shells immediately under it on the floor, gave to Its location an air
of fixity. In the corner was a “whatnot,” a series of triangular shelves, supported by columns of spools and covered with all manner of trinkets and family souvenirs. On the walls bung the enlarged family photographs in walnut frames. Aside from these a huge wreath*of flowers made out of wax and enclosed in a great encased frame, constituted the art exhibit ol the room. This was the "parlor,” 14x16, at exact and indifferent as the figures that indicate its dimensions, as sedate as the white wierd marble of tombstones Its precision in form and nicety of adjustment bid defiance at even the suggestion of a change. But even more pronounced was the clearance of Its utterance, reinforced by the orders of its mistress: "Let boys beware who enter here. No furniturr can be disturbed; no games or merriment permitted.” Yet this was the only place for the son to spend his "social evenings" and in its damp unallurlng air it held the answer to the question of a mother's aching heart.
