! in the Parable of the Prodigal
Son, the despicable state the
prodigal son found himself in
when he was sent into the
fields 'to feed swine"
Frequently Peters vision of
the sheet let down from heav-
en- wherein were all manner
of beasts, etc., of the earth, is
brought forward to justify the
use of swine's flesh as food.
But this amazing vision given
to Peter has absolutely no
bearing whatsoever on the eat
ing of clean and unclean foods.
The vision was given solely for
the purpose of making clear
to Peters mind the fact that
in Gods sight there was now
no difference between the
Jews and the Gentiles, and to
rid Peter of his Jewish bias to-
ward the Gentiles by giving
him to understand that he
should call no man common
or unclean."

good health and for the bless
ing of Divine Keeping.
In order for God to keep His
covenant" it was necessary
for Israel to observe certain
dietary regulations. These
were later set forth in statutes
and judgments. In them, they
were commanded to abstain
from the flesh of certain ami
mails, as we'll as from certain
fish, and fowl, the eating of
which was INDUCED in by the
heather nations around them.
Read the Eleventh Chapter of
Leviticus and the Fourteenth
Chapter of Deuteronomy. Note
how the Prophet Isaiah, in the
last two references given, con-
demned the people of Israel
for eating swine's flesh" and
for having the "broth of abom-
Unable things in their vessels"

Some declare that these laws
and regulations were set aside
in the new dispensation under
the Lord Jesus Christ. How
ever, there is not one passage
in the New Testament which
will bear out this contention.
It can be positively stated that
neither our Lord Jesus Christ
nor any of the Apostles ever
partook of swine's flesh as
food; - and every child of
God should follow their exam
pie in this matter, as in all
other matters. Jesus showed
His contempt for the whole
swine industry when He allow
ed the demons which He cast
out of the Gadarean demoniac
to enter into the herd of two
thousand swine = this caus-
ing the entire herd to rush
over a precipice and perish in
the sea. In seeking to wildly
portray the depths to which
man can fall, Jesus pictured,

Leuiticus. II:7-8
Prepared by Anton D

God did not intend that
swine's flesh should be used
as food by the human race.
The swine is the scavenger of
the land. No other animal can
devour as much filth, as much
poisonous foods, and carcasses
of all kinds, with greater i'm
punity and with seemingly
greater delight than the hog;
and no greater disease-produc-
ing thing under the label of
food" has ever been foisted
upon humanity by Satan than
the unclean flesh of the swine.
THE WORD OF GOD, in
both. the Old and New Testa-
ments, has nothing but con-
demnation for the eating of
swine's flesh-as we'll as for
the eating of many other cum
clean foods" The best medi-
cal authorities warn against
the use of swine's flesh as food
declaring it to be the cause of
a prevalent disease known as
trichinosis, which in it's final
stages always proves fatal.

Psalm 105: BIAS; Isaiah

Over forty centuries ago
God condemned the use of
swine's flesh as food. The
Scriptures record that when
God brought forth Israel from
Egyptian bondage "there was
not one feeble person among
their tribes" psalm 1O5 :37.
It is also interesting to note
that "the Covenant of Divine
Healing and Divine Keeping"
was given to Israel soon after
their deliverance from Egyp-
tian bondage. This covenant"
which God gave to Israel, as
found in Exodus Is :26, should
be committed to memory by
every child of God. It sets
forth the necessary require

hoped or whose capital is not suf-
ficiently large to warrant the
proper expansion to explore the
possibilities of advantageous mer-
gers.
There are various types of mer-
ger possibilities. Those most com
monty recommended are:
Merger of two or more stores
in the same line into one store.
The store with the best location
or partnership enterprise, with
is operated as either a corporate
stocks and assets pooled. This has
several advantages: with all part
ners working, pay rolls can be cut
light, heat, delivery and other fix
ed expenses can be halved. Divis-
ion Of work may bring improve
ments, with n participant hand
ling sales, another in charge of
service OF repair departments.
Merger of two or more stores
into a chain. Better buying pow
er, exchange of stocks, unified de-
livery system and better advertis-
ing are chief advantages, although
division of work may be possible
in some instances.
Merger o fstores in related line.
III which one store simply moves
into another as a partnership or as
a conceSsion-naire. A shoe store
moved into a mems furnishing
store, an appliance store into a
furniture store, or a frozen food
store into a grocery are typical

White Doctor Quits;
Negroes Can't Work on

PALMER, Tenn, July IS. IAN
|P) = This East Tennessee coal
mining community of 5000 is
without the benefit of medical
protection, as of last Thursday be-
cause of the action of the only
doctor in closing up his clinic and
moving to the home of his mother
near McRae, Ga.
DR.. Oscar H. Clements, 80,
white, moved his family from Pal
mer and stored his clinical equip
ment at Chattanooga, after hav-
ing practiced here for the last IA
years. His moving was in protest
against racial discrimination that
recently denied Negroes the right
to work on his new home.
According to Clements, his con-
struction foreman told him that
five men came to the house site
after the foundation had been laid
and warned four Negro brick lay
ers from Chattanooga not to be-
gin work. The foreman, Joe
Creighton, said one of the five
told the bricklayers, eve won't
even allow Negroes to come into
Grundy county, much less work
here" The brick layers had been
imported because there were no
possibilities. Cuts in rent and over
head, simplified delivery and ex-
change of customers are chief ad-
vantages.
All Of these mergers will bring

Corners Are Useful.
The darkroom itself may seem an
obstacle to some but, before giving
up for lack Of space, take another
good look ut the bathroom, kitchen
and basement. Somewhere in the
house or apartment there may be
some little corner that can be
screened of and used evenings. The
hall closet, with q felt padding
around the inside edges, will be
adequate, If not ideal, for developing
that has to be done In total dark
ness. And the enlarger and trays
can be rugged up In a very short
time near any water supply. Film
can be loaded and unloaded in
either the closet or in changing
bag that is specifically designed for
the job. If you do use the closet
be sure that no one will open the
door suddenly. You can either lock
the door or put a warning sign on 1t.
If you are one of the lucky ones
with basement your search should
be at an end. The basement can be
used just as it is, with the doors and
windows properly sealed against
light, or you can build your sanctum
In a corner where there is running
water. Ordinary wall board is suit
able for building a darkroom with q
few two-by-fours for support and a

The amateur photographer, truly
serious about his work, will give
much thought to the establishment
of his dark room. As In the selec-
ton of a camera. you should first
decide what you intend to do with
your hobby and then determine
what will be needed In the way of
equipment to accomplish your pur-
pose.
If cost is an important factor,
then buy the first things first and
let the rest accumulate as you can
afford them. A large outlay OF
money Is not necessary to get a
start on developing and printing
and, in the long run, if the cost of
having enlargements made on the
outside is considered, you will save
a great deal by doing your own lab
work, as well as having the fun of
doing 1t yourself.
