Hymn No. 32 Won.

A member of the congregation, a certain English peer, once w r ent to the rooms on Sunday Immediately after the morning service and put the maximum on thirty-two, the number of the last hymn.

The next Sunday the little church was crowded, and, the last hymn being again a low number, an unseemly rush to the rooms took place directly It was announced. Curiously enough, the number again turned up, and the bank was badly hit. On the following Sunday the church would not hold all the would be worshipers, but their ungodly intent was frustrated, as all the hymns were “off the board,” and have been so ever since
