Eight wplls have already been drilled in and near Peace River Town. Every well has brought in oil â€" not one well Uaii been drilled dry. Pay oil has bten discovered in at least five of the wells drilled, a record seldom attained in any n«w oil field on this continent. That oil would be discovered in Peace River was predicted by George Dawson, Canada's most enilnout geologist, over thirty years ago. During the past five years a score of the world's best known geologists and oil experts have visited Peace River. *nd in every Instance these men of 8<:ience endorsed the prophecy of Sir George Dawson of long ago. A valuoble by-product of the oil fields of Peace River ia wet gas, from which, by simple process, gasoline is extracted. From three to live million feet of wet gas belches from the wells already drilled into the gas stratum. Every man who has visited the wells at Peace River knows that oil is there, because he has seen it; but the wealth of the earth, be it gold, silver or oil, is of no value unless money is efficiently spent for its development. I believed the geologists and oil e.xpurts of this continent when they said that by drilling deeper into the oil sands at Peace River the BIG OH. POOL would be discovered. Because of this belief and my personal knowledge of the actual discovery of oil in the wells drilled at Peace River 1 feel I am acting in the best interests of Canada when I recommend the Canadian people to join with Peace River Petroleums, Limited, and help to secure the big production of oil tor cur industries. No Bonus or Promotion Shares There have been and will be no bonus or promotion shares issued by the Peace River Petroleums, Ltd. All the directors have paid cash for their shares; e'.'ery dollar received for sh.-ires by the company goes into the treasury and will be used for drilling and development work and legitimate expenses.

LESSON JANUARY 4. Peter I'reaches at Pentecost â€" Act«t 2: 11, 22-24, 32-42. Golden Text, Acts 2: 21. 1-13. The Ginning of the Spirit. "Pentecost" was the fiftieth d.iy, reckoned from the «iecond day of the PriSSO'.".'r feast. It came at the com- pletion of .seven weeks from the Pass- over Sabbath, and so about the end of harvest time in Palestine. The .lewi.'h feast of Pentecost was calle.i the "Feast of Weeks" (Lev. 23: 15-lG, Xuni. 28: 26). Tht. the first fruits of the liarvest were otfer :d to God, and .so the early Chri.stians saw in this Pentecost baptism with the resultant conversion of many souls the first fruits of the Gospel harvest which was ultimately to bring botli Jews and Gentiles into the Kingdom of God. "All together." The reference is to the one hundred and twenty disciples mentioned in 1: 15. Tlie time of meet-! ing: was the early morning. Peter be- gun his sermon at "the third hour of the day," that is about nine o'clock. "A mighty wind." It wa.s not wind and it was not fire, but what happened j is compared to "the rushing of a ! mighty wind," and to "fire." It was ; a profound spiritual experience, a 'â-  real'ty, tiierefore, of the highest! orfier, and the effect upon the com- pany of disciples was such that they ': could only describe it aa vr.-nd and ' fire. It was a tempest of emotion, : e.xalting them with such joy and con- j fidence of faith tiiat they brolte out into exclamations of praise and pray- i er. Above all was the consciousness ' of power, born of the conviction that â- Tesus their Master and Lord was w.ith rheni in living reality, a spiritual , presence, in fulfilment of His own ; promise. j "Dwelling at Jerusalem Jews." i Jews, at that time, were widely scat- ' tered throughout the world, but were accu-stomed to come up to Jerusalem from time to time either for purposes , of bus^iness or to attend the annual' festivals. They were nearly all ac- qua'nted with the .A.ramaic language, so that it was not really necessary to: speal< lo them in difforent languages.; Peter's sermon was no doubt delivered ' in Aramaic. j 14-3(!.

Peter proceeds to declare (vs. 22-?.6) that Jesus, who had done such niighly work.s among them and whom they had crucified, was risen from the dead, was exalted to "the right hand of God," and was assuredly the Saviour louff foretold by Israel's prophets and long and fervently expected, the Mes- siah, ''both Lord and Christ."

Tho other one was too far away, though the stock wa-s good ar.d was grown as far north as our own latitude. Tlva is worth while considering, too. Now for a goo<l many years we have dealt with a nursery in our own district and when possible we drive to the nur- sery and get the stock the .same day that we are ready for it.

Again he quotes Psalm tlO, in which tliore is a prediction of the victories of the com- ing Messianic king and in which He is represented as holding a uniijuc re- lationship to God. 1 .17-47.
