THL LAW OK StLK-CU.NlRoL, 13, 14. I.NTKOtiLCTioN â€" The letter to the Romans contains the fulle.st expres- sion we have of the Christian teach- Intr of theology of Paul. The letter deals, net only with the niy.it«riou» doctrines of Jesu.s, l)ut i.s also con- cerned with practical difficulties in the conduct of church members. It also i.s a revelation of the character of Paul. "The apostle is never more the Btatesir.an-mifsionary than in the pageK cf Romans." 1. THi: LAW OK THE STATE, 1-7. V. 1. In chapter VI. Paul ha.s dis- cussed the private dutie.s of the indi- vidual, but now he passe.s to those du- ties which men owe, as citizens, to the state. This section has been culled, 'the corneriitone of civil order." The relation of the citizen to the existinf? form of t'overnment had greatly in- terest#<l the Jews, many of whom ad- voc«te<l an attitude of revolt aKain.<t the rule of Rome. Some had att«>nipt- ed to trip up Je.tus on this grave i.ssue, by aslcinjr whether it was lawful to (five tribute to Caesar. The reply made by Jesus was very far-reaching and pr<>t>a't>!y is in Paul's mind as he writ*-* this pa.ssage. Jesu.s had said, "Render unto Caesar the things that are C^ie*iir'», and to (Jod the things that are CrtKl'.-t." Three p^incipl«^s are contained in this passage, which af- fect our wliolc relation to the State. v. 1. nrst: Th. State is tho ex pression of the divine will. .\II rule comes ultimately from God and men must wbey the civil ruler a.s (rod'a representative. This teaching i.s all the more striking when we remeniber that the w-icke<l Nero was now on the throne. ar,d that he wa.s al>out to i>cr- secute Christians in the most cruel manner. Paul had not yet suffered at the haniis of Rome, and had goner- ally reteJTed protection from the offi- cials of the Stale; but oven, when at a later time, he had much to endure at the hands of the imperial forci-s, Paul never ceased to be the friend of order. v. ."?. .Sec«.nd: The State has a U-ne- volenl purpose. It is the friend of the man who doe.<» what is right and only evildoers r.eed fear it. There were times whrn the State ceased to rem- ember ite !<!eal, and then the duty was laid upon citizens to see to it tlvat the State wa» re.«1ored to its tiTJe mission. Vs. 6. 7. Third : The church and the Rtate be'tong to different spheres. There is no one forri of government, monarchy or republicanism, that is specifically Christian. The State has Its own work to do. It has to ki>ep order, ruk- wisely, dl.-ttribute taxation, raise re^•*nue and see to the well- b«-ing of all c!a.sRes. The church deals •with i1m- rplritual life. II. THE LAW OK U)VB. 8-10. \' . K Paul here gives the motive by which all action i.< to l>e govornwi. This )M levc. We naturally think of the thirteenth chapter of 1 (A>rinth- lans in whvh this grace i.s .^io fully de.scribe<l, and which Wius written about the Msimc time as Ilomans. Here he .tpeaksi of love as a debt which is so exacting that we can never fully pay all the love wo owe. V. 9. Kxamples are given to show how love fulfills the law. Ixive seeks naturally the good of the others; and we cannot consc-iou.-vly do injury to those whom wp really love. Tliis v.as the teaching of Jesus also, who suni- nu'd it up in the famous Coldcn Rule III. THE LAW OK .SKI.K-CO.NTROI., 1:1, 1 I. V. i;{. In the closing part ivf this' chapter appeal is made to one of the strong hopfs of the early Christians. It was the conviction of the church that JesUK wo\iId soon appear again to rule over his people and to bring in the heavenly kingdom. This was a wonderfully su.ntaining belief for the.se jH-ople who were called upon to endure such great suffering. They w<<re up- held by the thought that their salva- tion was right at han<l. V. 14. But this hope must not pre- vent them from exercising all self- control in the present age. They must put on Jesus and then patiently wait for him. The truth on temperance which this passage makes dear are: 1. "That the State has a great duty to leirislate for the Ix-nefit of the »reate«t number, nn<l as no one can doubt that the removal of li(iuor would be for the prosperity of the nation, it SeeniH right for the .State to arrange for the wise admlaiatratioD of t«ai>- poraace law*.

My Thanksgiving Day Dinner Cheese Recipes Contrary to current belief, cheese Is a nutritious feed deserving of a place on the rally menu.

In making the latter plans, I take stock of the china and silver tiiat will be needed, and usually lliid Tliat a few teacups or other dishes will have to Celery be purchased. lOven the chairs are considered. Any woman who takes the proper pride in preparing this holiday meal Is eager to have the food as tasty as It can be made, and the method of serving In good taste. I have been encouraged by discovering that it Is easier to serve a dinner properly than to follow haphazard schemes. We jiad such a good dinner at our ThanksKlving Day celebraiion lust year tliat I have deiided to tell you about it.

I think every family should decide this matter for Itself. Some hosts serve the hostess first, and then the women and men guests: others serve all the guests before the hostess. Last year my Krandmotlier. being the guest of honor, was siven the first serving, and it would never occur to me to permit any youiiRer person to have his plate before this lady of eiKhty-flve years had received attention. .\fter the dinner is over I always leave the dishes, stacking them neatly Farm Notes the fireplace.

Few cattla raisers take the troubhi to weiifh their calves from month to month to aaoertain the gains they ara making. The Experimental Station at Sidne/, B.C., have weighed calves at three-month intervals during a per- iod of two years. The calves were of cJairy breeding and eight of them were wretghfjd until thay wore adg niionthe old, six of them until nine months, five until a year old, and two until twenty-four month.) of age had been reached. The calv<es at birth averaged 55.5 pounds. Their avera'^e gain for the first three months was 145.7; for the .second three months 142.1; for the third Ul.G; for the fourth 90.6 pounds; for tha fifth 61.2; for the seventh 75 pounds; for the eighth 50 poundis; and for the ninth three-mou'th jierriod 20 pounds. These gains agree with the theory that the older the animal beconmes the less rapid and the more expensive are the gains. The gains were not entirely uniform for the different animals, but the oonclusion is reached by the Sup- erintenident of the Station and report- ed in the Report of the Station for 1927, published by the Dept. of Agri- culture at Ottawa, that heifers ma.- ture itormally and rapitily during tba first year, that the increase diirintg the next six months is comparatively slow, after which the increase slides up as during the first year. WINTERING SURPLUS QUEEN3 When the beekeeper finds that ha has a surplus of queens in the fall of the year, the question arises as to ho«r he may winter these without loss. At the Experimental Station at Frederio- ton, Ney Brunswick, the foUowiririj; n:ethod for saving extra queens â- waa tried. Four weak colonies were se- lected for the experiment. Five of the lightest combs were removed from each colony and the bes shaken back into the hive. The remaining five combs were placed to one side of the hive. The following day i. tight di- vision board was placed in two of the colonies and the bees and brood and queens from the two remaining col- onies were placed one in each of tlve divided hives. Two weak colonies with queens were thus brought to- gether in one hive. Separate entrance* were provided at the cornei-s of the hivea and an oilcloth cover was tacked to the division board beneath the cover and over the frames. These col- onies were wintered in the cellar. Both queens came through the winter in good conditon in one hive, but in the other only one of the queens sur- vived.â€" Issued by the Director of Pub- licity, Doni.
