Who Are th© Most Guilty?

Seme of our young people, who sit back in tne congregation at the Me thodist chulch. haye been severely criticised lor disorderly conduct during divine service. I believe this disorderly conduct consists mainly in whispering and laughing. This is very annoying to our minister;indeed to such an extent that he has threat ened some parties with the “Grand Jury,” This is bad, indeed, and we hope our young pecple will be more careful in future while in church. But now we would suggest that our worthy minister turn his attention for a while to his Choir. Or, perhaps, when a fellow becomes a member oi the same choir it gives him privilege to talk to his girl. If that is so I oelieve I’ll “jine.” I would like to ask’ in conclusion, if the threat of the g* j., by our worthy minster, applies to I the members of his Choir? More anon, if necessary. A Member of the M. E. Church.
