us, taxed Wright's physical strength
tor/such an extent that he was forced
to abandon his studies for at time.
As a: result he was not'ordaincd in
the ministry until 1897. His first
pulpit was that in a little church in

This introduced him for exactly
eleven years or preaching'ln various
churches in Missouri, Kansas and at
Badlands. Caiitornla. Everywhere
hie presence was marked by conspic-
uous success. As one who knew him
wary well recently said:
“He had the xitt or understanding
men and women, of laying a. finger
on what was vital in their lives, 01'
speaking the word that touched their
hearto.” '
Everything that Wright did was
mooning for the better and some-
thing which advanced him to a high-
er ,9“!an in public esteem. vHis

fled himself with the misfortunes
and agpiratlona of his people.
While head. of a'flock in Pitts-
burgh. Kansas, Wright conceived the
idea ot delivering a. series of ser-
mons. extending over a period or
Sundays, on one enhlect. It was de.
lined to tell them of their own
lives. their own experiences. It was
also to exploit) life to them and to
make suggestions to help them
when advI-fflity came their way.
Friends who saw the manuscript
embncing this data told Wright that
as his own little parish. Their ad-
vice proved all sound that Hal-old
Bell Wright submitted it to a pub-
lisher with the result that the first
milestone of his literary career was
actually started with the publishing
or this manuscript under the title or
"That Printer of Udell's.“ '

BRIDGEPORT. May 13.-Samnel
Fitelson was denied a. divorce by
Judge Ella in Superior Court yestcxu
day on the grounds that his 'wife,
Mollie, had “thrown thing! at him."
The umpire found that only one
hit had been made by the bueballl—
icallly inclined spouse. and that only
after several "innings.”
Such a low~ average, the court
thought. didn't entitle Fitclsou to a
freedom pass.
“Marriage is a life status and
should not be dissolved unless. one
of the parties is guilty of conduct
which in itself constitutes a. repudla.

in his decision.
