* fbupdmdgéadowd â€" Marge was a young woman who was at everyone‘s beck and call Besides accompanying soloists at concerts, she played 'edlll’g marches, played for my dancing class, and was the organist of a small town church. _ She loved it and was always willing and ready to serve. s One day there was to be a funâ€" eral in the small} town church. The congregation was assembled and Marge was at the organ, waiting for the signal‘to begin playing. She had with her a book of muâ€" sic containing a varied collection.

Having heard her scold other people, I felt sure that she would grab Marge by the arm, so she couldn‘t get away, and then pour out a torrent of biting words. Of course I couldn‘t say anyâ€" thing until she began to talk, and I almost passed out when I heard I think that some attention 3 Should be brought to bear at school ‘Upon the wellâ€"known principle : “‘Excentions prove the rule." I dreaded it, having had tilts with her myself, and I made up my mind that if she started to scold Marge, I would tell her we had something more important to do than to listenâ€"to her fault finding, and take Marge off with me.
