'I do not come to this church of God t defend the black sheep," he said. '"I come to defend the decent men and women of the profession." Applause greeted this start. "Thou shalt not slander thy neigh bor," he continued, turning toward Dr. Straton. He said the minister was unfair in singling out the theatrical profession from so many others for attack.

Removing Worry A great many persons who have fixed yearly payments to make on homes, insurance, etc., are following the very successful plan of dividing the total of such payments by 12 and then making a regular monthly deposit of the divided amount in a Savings Account. In this manner each monthly deposit is much smaller arid more easily made and when the year is up and payment due, the full amount is ready and waiting PLUS the accumulated interest which makes a tidy little beginning for the following year. This plan often removes great embarrassment suffered by the person who has let such payment go until the eleventh hour and is not prepared to meet it.
