When the news Of the blessings OF his

into the divine directions and found
that none ought to carry the ark Of
God nut the Levites." This led to q re-
newal OF his efforts to bring up the ark
Of the Lord to Jerusalem, ana a strict
compliance with the ritual laid down in
the comma ndments OF God governing
the carrying Of the ark by the Levites
upon their shoulders with slaves.
The procession OF the people. who had

David. the seasoned warrior. knew
when they made him king over judah
and Israel that the only way to cement
the two elements OF the nation into
oneness and develop the unity needed
among the twelve tribes to make them
one nation was through their faith In
Jehovah.
saul's failure to obey God had caused
the division of the nations forces and
precipitated a civil war Just as tho
lack Of being guided by the principles
Of the Prince Of Peace has brought on
the present conflict in Europe. David
therefore determined 70 remove the
ark. that was the symbol Of the divine
presence, from the house of Abinadab.
where In the city OF the woods" some
eleven miles southwest OF Jerusalem II
had remained ever since It's return
Jerusalem so that the new capitol
might become the religious as well as

His first effort was a disastrous failure
because he neglected to follow the di-
rections laid down in the Scriptures.

desired to inaugurate a revival OF the

leaders and participated in by the

| came from the heather when the Phil
istines returned the ark on a cart.
We cannot do Gods will or work
| unless we obey His word. The failure
| traced to the neglect of always being
guided by the Scriptures. The man who
has some modern faith that is a sub
| stitute for the word Of God can find
In ancient heathenism the origin of his
modern cult.
Every person who tries to substitute
some other way for doing Gods work
other than He has commanded will pay
the penalty for 1t. as did Uzzah. whose
| impulsive error cost him his life. The
sudden death of Uzzah should be a
warning teaching US that we as indi-
yiduals have no more right to set aside
| Gods word and substitute our own
wills than any nation has for setting
aside the law Of nations and substitute
| ing its own will to accomplish the de-
| feat Of it's enemies
Every man who breaks any one of
the physical or spiritual laws of God
will be held strictly accountable for
his violation Of the divine commands.
Good intentions or expressions Of re-
gret will not be accepted in place OF
obedience
David started to do a good work In
the wrong way, and. like many men,
| when God failed to honor his efforts
the king was crestfallen. disgruntled
and. instead of asking the Lord then
and there for an explanation and the
meaning of Uzzah's death. David quit
and lost the blessing that went to the
house Of the Gittite. Obededom. one OF
| David's Philistine bodyguard.
| Many a follower of the Christ, like
David. has abandoned Gods work be
| cause he could not have his personal
way, even when his methods were con-
trary to the word Of his master. Sev-
eral months later David repented OF
his mistake. when he saw how God
had blessed his bodyguari's homo, re-
service. and carried the Ark up to the
new capitol that he had established ID
midway between Hebron and shechem
at Jerusalem. and made 1t the religious
] center of the nation.

CONCESSIONS TO CUSTOMERS
BUILD Up THE
TRADE-AT-HOME DE.
Local Merchant Shows Right Spirit
in Going After Mail Order Trade.

The trade-at-home idea is gaining
ground rapidly all over the country.
Primarily. perhaps, 1t is because peo-
pie are beginning TO realize that it's
TO their own advantage to foster the
home industry and spend their money
where it will eventually get back into
their own pockets.
But there's another important rea-
son which is that local merchants are
learning to compete with the mail
order houses on a different basis
They're beginning to extend the same
accommodations that are offered by
the most strenuous out of town com
petition and to make their sales plans
equally attractive.
A case in point is the new watch
club now being formed by Mr. R. J.
Goats. In times past plenty of or
ders have left this city for watches
because out of town houses allowed
responsible people to purchase such
merchandise on convenient payment
plan. This plan has an especially
strong appeal to a watch buyer be-
cause 1t enables him TO conveniently
buy a much higher grade timepiece
than he would otherwise feel able TO
do.
Those who took advantage of this
plan naturally felt that they had a
thoroughly good excuse for not heed
ing the trade-at-home pleas For
they were buying an accommodation
they couldn't get at home.
r. j. Coats, our local jeweler and
optometrist. realizes this. He says
that he believes that most people are
glad to patronize home merchants
whenever they can do SO without I'M
reasonable sacrifices. So he's put
ting on club plan of selling watches
that Will give local people an even
more convenient watch buying op-
portunity than 1t is possible to obtain
from any outsider.
He has made special arrangements
with a famous watch factory to Or
sanize a convenient payment club.
This club plan gives him the neces-
sary volume to permit special terms
and at the same time guarantee a
rock-bottom same-as-cash price. 1t
Is being started this week and has al
ready attracted a great deal OF fav-
orable attention.
1t Is such plans as this. giving the
customer every reasonable benefit,
which In our opinion will do most to-
ward keeping home trade In the pro-
per channels.
