f( From the Maker It

If a dealer claims he is selling a $600 piano value for
$400, does he really know, as a piano comprises over
3600 pieces of complicated parts? For instance, no matter how honest, capable or competent an accountant may
be, you would hardly appoint him judge of the mechanical
construction of, say, a grandfather's clock. A bricklayer or stonemason may seem crude when compared
with the medical or legal profession, but if you were seeking information as to the erection of a brick or stone structure you would consider their judgment far superior.

AND GUNTLISUBN'a

Isn't a weaver a better judge of woven materials than the

importer or dealer whose knowledge to a great extent is
guesswork? So, after all, is it not specializing on one
thing that makes us perfect?
