Years ago I called on a man and placed a set of magazines. I called on him again and placed another.
But then I called back and he said he no longer wanted them. His wife was allergic to newsprint.
“Look, just tell me you don’t like them,” I thought. “Lots of people don’t. I can live with that. “Allergic to newsprint! What a stupid excuse! Now I’ve heard them all.”
The man and his wife moved away. But some time after that I met them at a District Convention. By then, Bethel had switched to a higher-grade paper and he and his wife had made rapid progress.
They’re probably in the circuit work now that Bethel has gone digital, the last obstacle having been removed.
