WEAKNESS OF
GENERALITIES
“When you are going about
your business, be as kind ag you
can Be thoughtful of the other
travelers on the highways of life.
Take time to look for those who
have fared less fortunately; lend
them a helping hand whenever
you can.”

ed such generalities. But if He
had, do you sup
pose that they
would ever have
been remember
ed ? Would the
disciples have
recorded them ?
Would our age
evqr have heard
His name? He
was far wiser in
the laws and hab
its of the human ■HBJHHBUi
mind. Instead of Brne* Btrtoa ,
the common-place phrases written
above, He painted this striking
picture.
A certain man went down from
Jerusalem to Jerico and fall among
thieves.
There’s your illustration and
your head-line. If you had livad
near Jerusalem or Jerico; if you
often had occasion to use that very
road, wouldn’t you want to know
/'hat happened to that unfortunate
traveler ?
“They stripped off his raiment,”
the parable continues, “and wound
ed him, and departed, leaving him
half dead.” Pretty soon a priest
came by and seeing the victim
said to himself: “That’s a shame
ful thing, the police ought to do
something about these outrages.”
But he crossed over carefully and
passed by on the other side. A
certain respectable Levite also ap
peared. “His own fault,” he sniff
ed, “ought to be more careful.”
And he too passed by. Then a
third traveler drew near, and
stopped—and the whole world
knows what happened. . . . Gener
alities would have been soon for
gotten. But the story that had its
roots in overy-day human experi
ence and need, lives and will live
forever. It condenses the philo
sophy of Christianity into a half
dozen unforgettable paragraphs.
The parable of the Good Samaritan
is the greatest advertisement of
all time
Take any one of the parables,
no matter which—you will find
that it exemplifies all the princi
ples on which advertising text
books are written. Always a pic
ture in the very first sentence;
crisp, graphic language and a mes
sage so clear that even the dullest
can not escape it.

ONE of the most famous hotels i
of the world is the Ri.*-Carlton

'inarb'.e columns is a celebrated
room built in the Adams style. It
is one of the finest examples of its
kind in Amferica, and professors of
architecture frequently visit it with.
,their students.
L/OUis mac is me cnei who serves
the famous guests of the Ritz. For
more than 30 years he has been
chef to royalty. He began at 14
years of age in the pastry kitchen
of the Bristol Hotel in Paris. He

London Ritz. When the New York
Ritz-Carlton opened in 1910, Louis
Diat was sent to America, and he
has been with the Ritz ever since,
along with managing director, Al
| bert Keller, its famed hosL,
When questioned' about his most
popular dishes, Diat said that re
cently, perhaps due to the announ- j
cement that canned pineapple has ,
more known dietetic values than
any other fruit, his guests are
showing partiality toward some
form of canned pineapple, either in
salads, fruit cups or desserts. He |
said that slices of canned pine
apple are very tasty with chicken,
duck or quail. One of Diat’s un
usual recipes, for sweet potatoes j
and Ananas Louisiane, is as fol- j
lows:
Sweet Potatoes and Ananas i
Louisiane
Cut some cooked sweet potatoes
in round slices about 1/5 of an inch
thick and slice some pineapple in
round slices the same thickness.
Dish them overlapping each other,
alternated, in circles in an earthen
ware dish. Then pour some maple
syrup over them and bake in the
oven. When about to serve, sprin
kle with sugar and glaze under a
hot broiler..

And when he hath found it, he
layeth it on his shoulders rejoicing.
And when he cometh home, he call
eth his friends and neighbors, say
ing unto them, “Rejoice with me;
for I have found my sheep which
was lost.”
I say unto you, that likewise
joy shall be in heaven over one sin
ner that repenteth, more than over
ninety and nine just persos which
need no repentence. ...”
