Weatherstripping is fairly inexpensive, and
you can weatherstrip your home In a weekend.
If you don't have weatherstripping, you're
probably losing heated and cooled air
through the cracks around your windows and
doors.
Since you paid for that heated and cooled
air, you're losing money — by paying for
more electricity than you need.
Without weatherstripping,
money may be slipping
out the door
For a step-by-step brochure on weatherstripping,
visit or call your local Texas-New Mexico Power
Company office today.

A Study of God and Some
of His Works By Wilbourne Lee
Part 7
It Is said that there were over 330 Old
Testament prophecies concerning Jesus Christ and
His first cosing that were fulfilled to a "T".
With that kind of evidence, who cen deny that
the Bible la God's word to man?
Let us examine other evidence that tells us
the scriptures, in their original form, in the
Greek and Hebrew lenguages are the inspired word
of God.
The influence of the Bible for good serves as
evidence. For instance, very few children who
attend Sunday School and Church regularly (where
the Bible is taught in its purity) get into
trouble with the Law. Consider children today
who are not taught to reverence God and do not
attend Sunday school and Church where His word
is tseght.
Let us consider this Nation tn which we live.
The men who founded it had a
the Bible and the laws and
nation were founded upon it.
I believe it has been one
greatest nation in the world.
Bible was taught in the homes
America, she remained a great nation. Psalms
119:9-11 but mothers and Dads and homes have
turned away from the teaching of this Book and
it is sad, but true; America is going down
•orally, spiritually, and politically. In Psalms
9:17, we are told that "The wicked shall be
turned into Hell and all nations that forget
God."
How many people do you know, or rememb'r, that
at one time in their lives were liars, thieves,
drunkards, etc.., hating God and the teachings
of His book, not willing to accept the awful
condition that the Bible says that all of Adams
race are in, nor to turn to God in repentance
towrad Him and faith in the Lord Jesus Christ?
But finally, they did turn to God with all their
hearts and what a difference there was In their
