I am a minister myself, and note ,irhat "Mrs. A. T. II." says about the .rformlnr of the marriage ceremonies of divorced parties, I detest the minister trhoAnowlngly would unite In marriage any arM who hae beendlvorced when tho srreund of that divorce was a question able one, ... , What does our Lord plainly declare In Matthew v, 21-22! lx. 8-0? And for a minister to unite such guilty parties l( yartlceps crlmlnls. As long as the church winks at divorce and remarriage, that long will she be shorn f " a great part of her strength, There an ,be no real advancement to the church until this abominable evtl Is put aside.

JU't ft .few da s ago I saw a mother whip her eight-tn-year-old dafchter. This girl stayed out lato at night and would not get up when h'er mother called her to go to her work In the morning. Sho had not been whipped Jtor years. This woman Is a widow and stops In my house. She told me her troubles, so I ad vised her to whip this lneorrlglblo daughter. The girl Is very big and strong, and this aeemed no easy task, but where there's a will there's a way. This morning ahe refused to get up, the mother lost her temper, and asked me to help her. which I gladly did. She pulled the polled girl out of bed and turned her across a sofa. 'While I held her down the mother gave ber a good, old-fashlonod spanking. 8h soon cried for mercy, and promised to bey her mother. To humiliate her more, tho mother took Jier clothes away and kept her In tho room all day. It cured tho girl nil right.

Opposes Sunday Baseball Games to the Editor of the Eceiilno Public ledger: Sir I am opposed to Sunday sports of -nry character. In spite of the fact that they aro permitted In many of the large HI. In this country. Because they allow them does not say that wo have to follow in their footsteps. Each city has a right to decide for Itself. Nor nm I opposed to Sunday sports alono; I am also opposed to the opening of the places of amusement on that day. The same people who argue for - Sunday baseball also argue for the thea tres and picture houses to b open. In tho first argument they claim that the people Head the exercise and to be In the open air after being confined In offices and factories all week. In the second they aak for reo- 4' nation of this character, even though It Is anloyed In a badly ventilated building. The whole thing Is Illogical. As to Sunday baseball. I am sure you will find that the majority of thoso who en gage In It are not persons who are confined In offices and factories, especially In the former As a rule It Is too strenuous for the office man to engago In. I do not believe that the aerage person cares nn lota about Sunday baseball, but only the base ball fanatics, who are making all the trou ble. Where a small audience assembles to enjoy the game a bigger audience made op of 'the residents of the neighborhood are Terr much annoyed by the hoodlumlsm that accompanies the sport. ' Sunday Is a day of rest and quiet enjoy TDsnt. and the man Is better fitted for the Week's work who spends the day as quietly and with as little vigor as possible, espe cially If his work during the coming seven days Is strenuous. While some may be benefited by the game. I am sure that the tg majority of those who play and who at tend, from my observation, are not ben efited physically, and I am sure not men tally and morally.

In 'my estimation, Is to attend divine service In the morning: In the afternoon, when the weather permits, to go out Into the country ,and enjoy nature and the fresh olr, and the evening should be spent at home with the - family and frtends who may bo gathered J about the circle. No harm can be done In I ao enjoying the day. and It Is not possible. through this schedule, to give offense to any one or to proe an annoyance to your neighbor or to any neighborhood, The theatre should not be open Sundays for the reason that every one should be given one day out of tho eeven for diversion tit a different sort from what he Is com veiled to go through the other six. The peo. pie who work about the theatres and picture houses do not want the additional day's worki neither do the actors, tho helpers, 'the musicians or any cne who U engaged In . v this sort of work.

MYERS. , Philadelphia, October 24. 1020 J The Housing Situation to the Editor of the Evening Publio Ledger: Sir The belief on the part of a crea) many people that the prices of homes are going to show a great decline In the near future, I consider Is unwarranted from the fact. Within a few years, no doubt, there if going to be considerable of a decline, bat-prices will never go back to whut they ''nee war. The reason for this Is sp- arent. It Is only by very slow stages that labor cost Is going to be reduced, and that th high cost of materials is going to corns back to a normal basis The number of building operations that are In progress Is going to furnish but a Yry small percentage of homes for those who are seeking them, and this Is going to maintain the purchasing prices. Until there Is sufficient building csch year to Tiiest the demand. It is not to be exacted that the prices of homes are going to be materially less. This Is most unfurtu- nato. for there Is a gradual tendency of salaries to be reduced and au long i (his condition exists, It Is going to make It harder for the persons receiving a salary to meet the continued high rate cf coat of very-thing. Once the public has go) to the point where their salaries will not permit them to bur, then there will have to be a de cline, but that point Is 'at '.east a few years off, and those persons who are holding off In their purchases awaiting the reduction, are going to find many causes for disap pointment at th delay.

Friends Bring True Happiness To the Editor of the Evtnino Public Ltdgtr: Sir ThoVwrlter who signs himself "E. M. H." certainly deserves tho sympathy of all the readers of his letter. It Is ono bf tho most selfish I ha ever read, lie says he beliefs' "In every ono looking out fur himself." That Is true to a degree, but the man who "goes It alono" entirely will soon find himself strandod and will bo glad for the friendship that even a dog will offer. As for myself, I am not mercenary enough to believe that I can find true happiness in myself alone. Companionship of friends Is as old ns the world and will no doubt live for nil time. In spits of E.
