Verse 1-3.-The divine call.
The ancestry of Abram was traced
back to Eber, which means beyond"
or "the other side" His descendants,
the Hebrews, were known ms those
who had come from the other side Of
the r~iver-that is. the Euphrates, in the
land Of Aram (Mesopotamia). Previ.
Gus to this time they had lived in Ur
Of the Chaldees, which was In southern
Babylonia. Cr was n city of great
commercial Importance, and one of its
distinctions was the temple of the
moon god. where human sacrifices were
offered. Terah, the father OF Abram
was dissatisfied with the prevailing
idolatry, and 1t was a peculiar trial Of
faith when he was summoned to leave
loved ones and familiar associations.
He was led to leave this coun-
try with his family and emigrate tn
the north. After a journey of nearly
600 miles they reached Haran in the
north. Terah died here, and then
Abram was summoned to undertake
another emigration. . Get thee

crouehes Are Expensive.

'In my opinion. about the greatest
natural asset n man can have" said a
retailer, ais that of good nature. And
am speaking entirely from a business
point of view too. Aside from the hap
piness that good nature brings to the
individual himself. 1t has distinct bust
ness advantages that should not be lost
sight Of for an instant.
"In the first place. the good natured
man has lots of friends. and the value
Of friends who may be made custom
ers or who may be depended upon to
give one the benefit of any good thing
they may have Is In itself a good thing.
Then. too. the good natured man is n
who is confident. optimistic and willing
to take n bigger chance in the course
of his daily work than the suspicious
and Ill tempered individual. and. since
all business is taking n chance to a
greater or less extent. this is another
resource that should be taken into ac-
count.
Now. it is easy enough to say be
good natured, but perhaps for some of
us 1t is not the easiest thing in the
world to become. To get away from
the crouch habit. IL we have it. is un-
doubtedly difficult. but it can be done,
and all of us know of people who have
overcome 1t. What l do want to say,
and it applies to the merchant and his
clerk with equal force. is that the re-
suit is worth the effort, not alone In
making life more worth living. but in
putting a larger cash balance on the
right side of the account, and that is
what all of us who are in business are
striving to accomplish. Boot and Shoe
