It is remarkable how the things we read influence our lives. Every word is like a seed, and when planted on the fertile soil of mens’ minds becomes a mighty plant. For this reason every be liever must be careful what he reads and make sure that he spends much time reading the wonderful Word of God. STUDY QUESTIONS 1. What command did Paul give Tim othy? (1 Tim. 4:13.) What do you think Paul expected Timothy to read? Why do you think the Bible is the most important book any man could possibly read? Dis cuss this question in your meeting, and . list the reasons on the blackboard. The Bible brings man the knowledge of sal vation (2 Tim. 3:15) and teaches him “ wondrous things” (Ps. 119:18). 2.

I BoughtMYAUTOINSURANCEat25%Of from America's Oldest Total Abstainers Auto Insurance Co. I proved that I was a total abstainer with a good driving rec ord — and Preferred Risk proved that they could protect me with standard form automobile insurance at a cost 25% below what I had been paying . . . That was five years ago! But this was only the beginning . . . I found the' initial 25% savings was followed by progressive rate reductions based on my own safe driving record. Since I had no accidents my rate went down even lower . . . Today m y saving on auto insurance is 44% ! I was surprised1that I could save so much, — but I shouldn’t have been. I know that drinking drivers are responsible for thou sands of costly accidents and cause other insurance companies to pay out millions of dollars in claims . . . Preferred Risk pays out on none of these “ drinking” losses because it has none. It has none because it insures non-drinkers* only. No wonder Preferred Risk has over 100,000 policyholders and over $3,500,000 in assets— and issues America’s only n o n -a s s e s s - able total abstainers policy. No wonder I smile when I say “ No thanks, I ’m a P. R .” *N o n -d rin k e r m eans T O T A L a b s ta in e r. T h e o c c a s io n a l " s o c ia l" d r in k e r is N O T e lig ib le .
