The other day Rev. Merle Weath-
ers was driving to Amarillo and he
saw a fellow motorist stopped by the
side of the road changing a flat tire.
The man was having difficulty in
getting the rim off the wheel and
was using considerable profanity.
Bro. Weathers stopped and told the
man that he shouldn’t curse but that
he should offer up a prayer. The
man replied that he had been work-
ing on the wheel for thirty minutes
and was ready to try anything and
kneeled and prayed for help. He then
tapped on the rim and it fell from
the wheel. Bro. Weathers who was
•watching said, “Well, I’ll be d----!”---------oOo---------
