ATTENTION, CHURCH CLERKS.

By H. A. St. John

Minister. Did you clip the article on the “Duties of Church Clerks,” from the REVIEW, and paste it in the Clerk’s book?

Church Clerk. No.

Minister. Why not?

Church Clerk. Because I understand my duties well enough without it.

Minister. Well, your successors may not be so competent as you are. They may need some simple rules for their instruction, and would it not be a true missionary act on your part to thus preserve them for the guidance of others?

Church Clerk. Yes, you are right; I will paste them in. H. A. St. John.
