A few Sundays ago I saw a couple in a Salt Lake church that almost hypnotized A lady with a big hat on sat four seats ahead of just behind her sat a gentleman who desired to see the preacher as well as to hear him so he tried to peek around the First the lady would bob then he would bob then she would swing and he would go They made me think of an engine front end back end then front end down and back end They moved back and fourth like a steam-fed carriage in a saw mill or an iron planer bed in a brass It is no wonder that some men have a weak and a rubber I would much rather sit behind a mill a mill post knows enough to stand but a big A big hat is like a cow's tail in fly it keeps forever on the and gets before your eyes just when you don't want it knot come The big hat keeps many men from attending church the average attendance of the orthodox christian churches in the United States is five women to one At the testimonial of John P. in Eagle a few Sundays I sat with two others near the center of the when three women with enormous came in and sat directly in front of moved two or three seats forward ac-oss the aisle Presently four more big hats came in With women under and got in front of We this time to front and one of my companion used language that would not do to put into The ladies who caused us to move giggled and simpered like silly school girls when saw us change would not have remained through the meeting if we had not been able to secure seats where could see the On November I attended the Episcopalian church on First South street in this and heard an excellent sermon by By actual count there were women to every man in that large Not one woman in that as far as I could removed her I sat about twelve seats back from the Spaulding baptized a little baby that There is nothing more beautiful for me to witness than the baptism of a I like to see the pretty baby and its proud and timid But I might just as well- have been the blind man selling papers on the corner of First South and Main I did not get one glimpse of the its or during the entire The headgear on the thoughtless women caused more than one man in that audience to declare that he would not attend church a gain until the women became civilized enough to remove their knot come I cannot understand how any woman can enjoy herself in any where she knows she is discommoding and annoying when by a little effort on her she could remove the as a are much more considerate of the ladies than the ladies are of the Nine men out of ten in a street car in Salt Lake no matter how hard they have worked or tired they will get up and give a lady his And nine women out of every ten in some of the churches of this city with big annoy all who sit behind I am not putting the matter too Ninety-nine men out of every hundred will bear me out in all I have To enjoy a lecture or a one must see the note his discern whether or not he is in earnest and his heart in his Actions sometimes speak louder than To sit and listen to an eloquent speaker and not see one cannot tell whether the speaker is the thoughts of others or whether he is pouring out his own heart and Holy writ says that Moses was the meekest of all And yet it is my belief that if Moses had been compelled to listen to an eloquent sermon while at the same time trying to look around or beneath a lot of big hats he would have lost his I hope the ladies will be considerate enough to remove their hats without driving the men from our orthodox churches and other public and without waiting for laws to be so that bouncers will have to he hired to yell In conclusion I say again to all the women of knot come with my hat V.
