Weekly Message ....
From Our W.D. Ministers
Melvin Lane, Minister
Church of Christ
"Even so ye also, when ye
shall have done all things that
are commanded you, say, We
are profitable servants; we
have done that which it was
our duty to do. "(Luke 17-10)
If we were able to do every-
thing Christ has commanded us,
we would still not be profitable
- ser-zants. Christ, who "came
not to be ministered unto, but
to minister, and to give His life
a ransom for many" (Matthew
20:28), has served and is serv-
ing us more than we can poss-
ibly serve Him. Compared to
Him we must always be un-
profitable, yet pride or self-
satisfaction often prevents us
from doing what we can.
The story is told of an Arab
beggar who used to sit at the
gate of a rich man's house on
whose bounty he constantly de-
pended and from whom he re-
ceived alms daily. One day the
rich man asked him to carry a
message. The beggar drew him-
self up and replied, "I solicit
alms; I do not run errands. "
How like the beggar we must
at times appear to God. We

not only receive but continually
ask God's blessings. But do we
carry a message for Him? Isn't
that the primary task he has
asked of us? Do we continue to
beg and receive, but consider
it beneath our dignity to run
errands?
If we did all He asked we
would still be unprofitable.
Our salvation is by grace, our
hope is based on mercy. But as
possessors of His message, be-
arers of good news, must we
confess: "We do not well;
this day is a day of good tid-
ings, and we hold our peace. "
(II Kings 7:9)

Hunting Safety Is
Urged As Deer
Season Arrives
Some millions of American
males — along with more than
a few females — are taking to
the woods this month, firearms
in hand, in search of live targets.
These are the hunters among
us.
The Texas Medical Association
has a note of caution for those
who are planning a fall safari
into the fields and woods in sea-
rch of deer and other game.
Know what you're firing at
before you pull the trigger.
The hunter who blazes away
rapidly at everything that moves
is a highly dangerous animal.
His quarry might well be another
hunter.
The wise Texas hunter will be
wearing a "hunter orange" vest
or, at the very least, a cap made
in this glowing bright fluorescent
color. The color sends a glowing
signal to other hunters, but goes
unnoticed by color-blind game
such as white-tail deer, which
will only be alarmed with dis-
tinguishes motion, sound, or
scent.
Each year several hunters re-f
turn from fall outing via hearse.
Many others return with a load
of bird shot or a rifle bullet to
be dug out by a doctor. Behind
almost every hunting accident
is one cause: carelessness.
Never cross over or through a
fence or climb a tree with a
loaded gun. It might fall and
discharge. Don't shoot at a hard,
flat surface. Glancing bullets,
can carry long distances. Even
a small bore rifle has considerable
range. Know where your bullet
will stop before pulling the trig-
ger.
Keep guns away from child-
ren. Never leave a weapon un-
attended without unloading it.
Store guns and ammunition be-
yond the reach of youngsters,
preferably under lock and key.
Always carry a gun so that you
can control the direction of the
muzzle if you stumble. Keep
the safety catch on until ready
to shoot. Be sure the barrel is
clear of mud, snow or other ob-
structions. A clogged barrel may
burst.
Leave your liquor bottle at
camp, and wait until you're
through with the day's hunting
and the guns are unloaded to
take that first drink. And don't
overdo it. You want to have a
clear head for the next day's
hunt.
Good luck on a successful -
- and safe - - hunt.
