Buying A New Chandelier

The pastor called a special meeting of the congregation to approve the purchase of a brand new chandelier.

After some discussion pro and con, an old farmer stood up and said, "Buying a new chandelier may seem like a good idea to you, but I’m against it for three reasons;

• First of all, it’s too expensive and we can’t afford one.

• Second, there isn’t anybody around here who knows how to play one; and

• Third, what we really need in this church is a new light fixture.”
