September 3, 1913. A FAMILY P-iPBR. 11 CHURCH CONCERTS AND SHORT SERMONS. An interview with Dr. Munhall Reported by \ Rev. F. E. Allen. The day following the adjournment of Synod, I had the pleasure of conversing with Dr. Munhall, the evangelist, who delivered his address on "The Book of Books" before Synod, as we journeyed on the road Ibetween \A'arsa\v and Indianapolis. The •.following is part of what he said, as I re- ^,call it: ";V short time ago I delivered an address 'before the ministers of Indianapolis. If there is any city in the v>'orld where the ministers are shortening their sermons to please the people it is there. They told me twenty or twenty-five minutes left for the sermon. When they got through with over an hour's entertainment there was not quite twenty-five minutes left for me. I preached lintil twelve, when the town bell struck, and then all the men pulled their watches and I saw at once that they were used to being let out at that time. I stopped and said to I'lem, 'I have just begun, but I see you are used to closing at thisi time. I know your unners are waiting, and I will' not keep you 'm them, but I need fifteen minutes more to finish my sermon. I pronounced the benraiction. Two of the trustees came to me afterward and told me that I did wrong. They said, 'Why didn't you finish,? W e "We been cursed withi these entertainments 'g enough. We pay $8,ooo a year to keep •'P this choir. W e wish we could stop it. J^e don't know what to do.' 'Well,' said I, kno-w what to do alright, you leave it to me.' The next Sabbathi they banded me the same sort of bill of fare program. I let them go on with three of theii pieces, then S^t up, stated my text, started in and Pleached for forty-five minutes, and then Pfonounced the benediction. The leader of "f clioir came at me like a mad bull. He s^'d: 'What
