1. WHY
Why do
men's clothes have buttons on the right while women's clothes have buttons on
the left?
BECAUSE
When
buttons were invented, they were very expensive and worn primarily by the rich.
Since most people are right-handed, it is easier to push buttons on the right
through holes on the left.
Because
wealthy women were dressed by maids, dressmakers put the buttons on the maid's
right! And that's where women's buttons have remained
since. |

General Comments
Verses 1 to 5 are in two groups – 1 to 3 and then 4 to 5; they are practically identical, so that reading them together has a cumulative effect on us. Each is based on a tragic incident: Pilate murdering a group of Galileans as they were offering sacrifice in the temple, and a tower falling and killing eighteen people.

An Amazing Story - Paderewski & Hoover
This is a fantastic story. Some of you may have read it before, but
it is still relevant in today’s world where this kindness is repeated over
and over again in many forms, some of them very small. It’s the kindness that really matters and brings about results.
This is a true story that had happened in 1892 at Stanford University. It's moral is still relevant today.
A young, 18 year old student was struggling to pay his fees. He was
an orphan, and not knowing where to turn for money, he came up with
a bright idea. A friend and he decided to host a musical concert on
campus to raise money for their education.
They reached out to the great pianist Ignacy J. Paderewski. His
manager demanded a guaranteed fee of $2,000 for the piano recital. A
deal was struck. And the boys began to work to make the concert a
success.
