Piner''s Calls Attention
To Dangers OF Old Tires

Well, you're all ready for a New
Year that we all expect to be bet
ter than any we've experienced SC
far. Resolutions of all kieids have
probably been made, and of course
you have every intention Of keeping
them. You didn't by any chance for
get to make one regarding your
automobile? Don't you really think
we all ought to resolve to drive
more carefully, and make u cars
safer to drive in 1910? That's n
resolution you should make for your
and your family's safety, as well as
for the unsuspecting pedestrian.
One of the main things to be con-
sidered at all times about your car
is it's tires. When the tires become
slick-faced, and perhars incur cuts
and bulges in the side walls, YOU
should begin doing something about
it. Quite suddenly some time, when
you least suspect it. maybe when
you're rolling along at i fast clip,
a blowout is COINS to make a loud
disturbance and your car swerve out
of control, become a veritable iron
monster devastating everything in
it's path until it's brought to a stop.
If you live to tell about it you're
liable to find yourself faced with
a murder charge or two, all because
you were trying to get a few more
miles out of those old, o out
tires. Let's all begin 1910 py doing
our part to decrease the mounting
death toll by automobile accidents.
If your life means little to you, then
by all means consider others who
want to live. Don's risk snCffing
out a life by your carelessness and
desire to save a dollar OF two.
If you find your budget will not
allow you to buy new tires at pres
ent to replace those old ones, there
is a simple remedy for that. Just
go to ZIG Market street, L. D,

Does He not care? Why does He
permit such vast and incalculable
suffering? Are His ears closed to
the passionate prayers of His
people? Why does He permit right
and reason to be trampled under
foot by those who f1out him?
No other work deals so fully with
these problems as the Book of Job.
1t is unique in literature, admittedly
one of the greatest poems of all
ages. Aside from the prose prologue,
and occasional explanatory para
graphs, the book is in verse; and
should be read in the revised ver-
sion, or one of the modern transla-
tions which preserve the poetical
form. The pages are studded with
great phrases which have become
the proverbial wisdom of Christen-
dom.
We are told little about the au-
thor, the time or the place. Evil
IDENTIFY Job was patriarch, power
full sheik dwelling somewhere on
borders of Arabia. The whole atmos-
phere of the volume betrays that.
AS to the date, it has been variously
assigned by critics to a period from
the time of Moses to post-exilic
days. But the text and the truth
are timeless.
1t makes for spacious thinking
to realize that this ancient poem
holds candle to tighten today's
dark path. Our present problem of
the inscrutable ways of the Almighty
is as old as the race. In our bitter
ness we cry Never was sorrow like
unto my sorrow" which is not true.
And the greatest of these woes, the
clouding of faith in a good God,
is as old as Job.
Those Blundering Friends.
This lofty book consists of a dis
cussion, a dialogue, an argument,
between God, Job and Jobs four
friends-Eliphaz, Bildad, Zophar
and Elihu, the last a young man
who spoke after the others were
through.
Let it first be set down clearly
that Job had friends They were not
wise, but they were true and I'M
selfish. Jobs had been the sort of
life that won friends. In his ad-
versity they forsook all else and
turned to comfort him. In the first
seven days of his grief they simply
sat silent in his presence-an act
more solacing than their subsequent
wordiness. Just to have friends who
stand by: that is one of the rewards
of fine living.
The great point made by Jobs
friends in their argument was that
his suffering must have been caused
by his sin. Conscious of his integrity
Job Withstood this arraignment. It
would be foolish to deny that afflic-
ton often comes to the good. Life
is not a bargain counter, whereat
