ASTROLOGERS BRING GIFTS
TO THE CHRIST CHILD matthew 2:1-12
From
THE LIVING BIBLE
Jesus was born in the town of Bethlehem, in Judea,
during the reign of King Herod.
At about that time some astrologers from eastern
lands arrived in Jerusalem, asking, “Where is the
newborn King of the Jews? for we have seen his
star in far-off eastern lands, and we have come to
worship him.”
King Herod was deeply disturbed by their question,
and all Jerusalem was filled with rumors. He called
a meeting of the Jewish religious leaders.
“Did the prophets tell us where the Messiah would
be born?” he asked.
“Yes, in Bethlehem,” they said, “for this is what the
prophet Micah wrote:
‘0 little town of Bethlehem, you are not just
an unimportant Judean village, for a Gover-
nor shall rise from you to rule my people
Israel.’ ”
Then Herod sent a private message to the astrol-
ogers, asking them to come to see him; at this meet-
ing he found out from them the exact time when
they first saw the star. Then he told them, “Go to
Bethlehem and search for the child. And when you
find him, come back and tell me so that I can go
and worship him too!”
•After this interview the astrologers started out again.
And look! The star appeared to them again, standing
over Bethlehem. Their joy knew no bounds!
Entering the house where the baby and Mary his
mother were, they threw themselves down before
him, worshipping. Then they opened their presents
and gave him gold, frankincense and myrrh. But when
they returned to their own land, they didn’t go
through Jerusalem to report to Herod, for God had
warned them in a dream to go home another way.

THE INFORMED
CONSUMER
By Crawford C. Martin
Attorney Genera! of Texas
^ Wes says — ^
Some people work like a ^
Have you ever wondered
who checks the accuracy of the
gasoline pumps at the many
service stations across our
state? It might surprise you to
know that the Texas Depart-
ment of Agriculture periodica-
ally inspects these pumps for
proper gallon delivery and
correct price computation. If
the pump passes this inspec-
tion, a round seal is placed on
the face of the pump to let you,
the consumer, know the device
has been checked by a field
representative of this agency.
Checking gasoline pumps is
only one of the many ways that
the Department of Agriculture
aids the consumer. Consumer
service inspectors keep a
constant watch on packaged
food items - and prepackaged
meats, a checking to see if the
labels conform to our various
laws. They also weigh the
contents of these packages to
assure that the stated net
weight and price computations
are correct. The Department
of Agriculture also administers
the Texas Egg Law which
helps assure the consumer that
the eggs he buys in the market
are fresh and correctly marked
as to grade and size.
One of the Department of
Agriculture’s more important
services to the consumer is the
testing and regulating of scales
in retail stores to insure
accuracy. If the scale has been
inspected, there will be a
round seal giving the last date
of inspecting. They also check
livestock scales on ranches,
large terminal market scales,
and other large commercial
scales throughout the state to
make sure of accurate weights
all along the marketing chain.
This service assures the
consumer that he will in fact
get the quantity he has
bargained for.
In an effort to improve its
services and facilitate com-
munications, the Texas De-
partment of Agriculture has
established a Consumer Ser-
vice Division. This office is
• y J
located on the 5th fooi of the
John H. Reagan Building in
Austin. It collects and dissem-
inates informative and helpful
brochures on how the Depart-
ment of Agriculature can help
the consumer and how the
consumer can help himself.
Also, there are eight district
offices of the Department of
Agriculture located in Hous-
ton, San Antonio, Pharr,
Brenham, Lubbock, Odessa,
Stephenville, and Tyler.
