HUSBAND'S GROUCH
Wife SaicJ Patterson Was Too Fond of Liquor; He Complained She Liked Religion Too Much "DANIEL IN A DENJ)F WOWSERS" (From "N.Z. Truth's" Special Dunedin Representative). Hessie May Patterson plays the organ at the Green Island Church of Christ, but somehow or other her connubial canticles have been all out of tune. This she attributed to her husband's bibulous habits, but Earland James Patterson convinced Magistrate Bundle that he was not an habitual tippler. Moreover, he declared that Hessie preferred the organ-stool to her own kitchen-range ; m fact, there was too much religion, too much Bible School superintendent, and too much ma-in-law for Earland's peace of mind.
