CHURCH
Reading edition
SCOTT—"What is your notion of an ideal church?"
JACKSON—"One that meddles with neither politics nor religion."
He had been around from church to church trying to find a congenial congregation, and finally he stopped in a little church just as the congregation read with the minister:
"We have left undone those things which we ought to have done, and we have done those things which we ought not to have done."
The man dropped into a pew with a sigh of relief.
"Thank goodness," he said, "I've found my crowd at last."
HIX—"I understand your Church has sent the minister to Michigan for a month."
DIX—"Yes, that's right."
HIX—"For a vacation, I suppose?"
DIX—"Yes; the congregation decided that we were entitled to one."
