A Poem From Mrs. Eby .. • —The Preacher's Wife— You may think it quite an easy task and just a pleasant life; But it really takes a lot of grace to be a preacher’s wife. She’s supposed to be a para gon, without a fault in view; A Saint when in the parsonage, as well as in the pew. Her home must be a small hotel for folks that chance to roam, And yet have peace and har mony, the perfect preacher’s home! Whenever groups are called to meet, her presence must be there, And yet the members all agree she should live a life of prayer. Though hearing people’s bur dens, their griefs both night and day, She’s supposed to spread but sunshine to those along the way. She must lend a sympathetic ear to every tale of woe, And then forget about it, lest it to others go. Her children must be models rare of quietness and poise, And still stay on the level with other girls and boys. You may think it quite an easy task and just a pleasant l^fe; But it really takes a lot of grace to be a preacher’s vyife. (Author Unknown) Letters to the Editor Portland, Ore.
