Go into one of these towns where there is a creamery, where butter is manufactured, and go into the stores of that town and you will find for sale butter made in the middle west, or tennessee, or some other state. Of course wou will find some of the local product, but a great deal more that is brought from a distance. Why do merchants carry that? Because their customers want it. if you are running a business you are not running it as a subsiduary of some manufacturing concern, but because the people patronize you. You can get as good damask manufactured in North Carolina as anywhere, but you will find thousands and thousands of people in the state who do not buy North Carolina damask. A friend of mine who was building a home ordered a certain kind of furniture. ‘The meréhant who shipped it to her failed to take out the High Point label. It was exactly what she wanted, grade, style and sent it back to him,(and I think all he did was to take out the lakel and ship it back to her, but she was satisfied).

Matthew took certain things Jesus did and and told of them as if they followed each other. Certain miracles which Jesus performed were not performed one after the other as they are recorded. Matthew was trying to eonvinee the Jews that this man Jesus was the long looked for wiessiah. In readine the Bible or any other piece of literature it is eto quite often necessary that we have a sreat deal of knowledge that is not contained in the piece of literature we are reading in order that we may thoroughly understand it. i was reading in a magazine this week an article that was rather interesting. ‘the man said among other things that it was necessary for you to do this and that and the other J. in order to carry the message to Garcia. Now, if I hadm't know what "carrying the message to Garcia" meant I would not have known what this man meant, for there was no other reference made to it. In reading this passage of scripture Matthew said you would not put new wine in old bottles.

Some go so far as to say that the color of the paper on the walls of a man’s house has something to do with his success or failure, with his mental attitude, and his disposition. 1 suspect there is some truth in that. The moving pictures you see have something to do with your life. Byver—se often a person is brought up and convicted of some crime that has all the earmarks of ere shown in a moving picture. Probably the moving picture has entered into that person's life and made him become a criminal; that is more than a possibility, it is indeed a probability.
