I Kings 3:9. THF LESSON IN ITS SETTING Tiitt. â€" Solomon wais born in 1041 i.e., and, asouming that he was ;. out eighte-'R years of age wher, -:iis dream came to him, the ir the episode recorded in •son would bi about 1022 date our I B.C. Pu.; locate â€" The city oc Gibeon was five mile.s northwest of Jerui.- em, wher.i :oday the mod- ern V age bears r,fae name El-Jib. Tin career ot Solomon is re- coraci in 1 Kings 1:33 to 11:43, and ,! I Chron. 23:1 to 2 Chron. VtSl Solomon was the son of Da- vid lui; Bath-sheba. 5. Ir. Gibeon Jehovah appeared to Si'./mon in i dream by night; and led said. Ask what, I shall givt. Gibeon and Mount Zion were nen the twj arreat centres of tilt national worship. God fre- quenT, y revealed his will to men throng h dreams. 6. >.nd Solomon said. Thou hast show*', unto thy servant David my fathc; great loving-kindness, ac- cordii.i- as he walked before thee in ti'C-h, and in righteousness, and :,-. uprightness of heart with thee; .^nd thou hast kept for him this, i-eat loving-kindness, that thot .-.ast given hiir. a son to sit on hjc throne, as it is this day. 7 .-, nd now, Jehovah my God, thoc ;ast made thy servant king instt'.-.d of David my father: and I an. ut a little child; I know not how go out or come in. i^ .^nd thy servant is in the mids: of thy people which thou hast .hosen, a great people, that cann;: be numbei-eJ nor counted for : altitude. y Jive thy servant therefore aji unJe;>tanding heart to judge thy peoi' t. that I may discern between goo; xnd evil; for who is able to JMdk"-. this th.v great people? The phraie "understanding heart," can ; e literally translated, "a hea; â-  g heart." How many, many thir,;â- ^ Solomon could have asked for .-. this most significant hour- tor :iches, for honor, for glory, for -K'tory in war, for pleasure. Anc yet you can see for yourselves tha: 1 isdom is really the best gift. A V K' man people want to know iniself; it U the man they !or and not his belongings, at you see wisdom is really ighcst and l>e>t sift, after fo: . car; So ;.' the ; 10. Lord, thing .\Md the speech pleased the that Solomon had asked this 11. .\nd God said unto him, Pec'ai.se thou hast a.sked this thing, and ha.st not asked for thyself Ion J life, neither hast asked riches lor t'\vself, nor hast asked the life of thine enemeies. but hast •.-•.kec! for thyself understanding to dijcein justice; 12. behold, I have done according to thy word: lo, I have given thee a wise and an un- ai";tai.ding heart; so that there hslh been none like thee before thee Meither after thee shall any •rise like unto thee. The extra- srdinar.v wi.idoni, which the lyord bestowed on Solomon in answer Iv the prayer of his dream at Gib- fm. iranifested itself in many Ka.vs, His masterful wisdom was leer. in every department of his life as a man of thought and ac- tion. .\s a man of thought his prs- eminent wisdom appeared in hi» t()eech and writings, and as a man •t action in the peace and pros- perity and splendor which he V iiieht to his liltl* kitvrdom. 13. And I have also given thee that which thou hast not asked, both riches and honor, so that there shall not be any among the kings like unto thee, all thy days. 14. And if thou wilt walk in my ways, to keep my statutes and my commandments, as thy father Da- vid did walk, then I will lengthen thy days. Some things God gives unconditionally; others are be- stowed with definite conditions at- tached to them. 13. And Solomon awoke; and, behold, it was a dream: And he came to Jerusalem, and stood be- fore the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, and offered up burnt-of- ferings, and offered peace-offer- ings, and made a feast to all his servants. Hit Later Years While the future career of So- lomon is not assigned to us in this lesson, we ought not to close this study of his life without a brief reference to the sad history which followed this remarkable experi- ence. It was doubtless not one cause, but many. He was too prosperous. He had no wars to trouble him. His course was un- usually smooth. He had innumer- able flatterers: and men ready to worship him; and few men can en- dure all this without losing their best and most gracious qualities. We find that he follows the in- iquitous Egyptian system of em- ploying forced labor for all his great works, and that he beautifies his capital by the sweat and toil of unpaid men. These are not the doings of a wise and consideratre king. They are the works of a man who forgets his responsibili- ties in the enjoyment of his pleas- ures. The glory of Solomon brought the common people tears and groans. We see Solomon in his later years with his popularity gone, and alas! his morals and re- ligion. And so it came to pass that the man who had commenced with such noble resolves, shaping his future with the religious colors of an almost inspired dream, finished in the misery of a foolish dream, finished in the misery of a fooliah and godless evening time. Eider Down Used In New Industry Conservation of tiie supply ot elder ducks along tlia north shore of the GuIJ ot St. Lawrence is being accomplished not only by law-ea- forcement measures and bird sanc- tuaries, but also through the estab- lishmenis ot a new industry â€" the production of eiderdown. Made pos- sible by [h» co-oi)eration of the Federal Department of Mines and Resources, the Provincial Govern- ment ot Quebec, and a number of private agencies and individuals, the production ot eiderdown on a commercial basis now adds to the income of a people whose sources of revenue are somewhat limited, and also gives local residents a strong, practical reason tor desir- lug as large a population ot nest- ing eider ducks as possible. Since lUe inception of the super- vised industry in 1933 the quan- tity ot cleaned eiderdown marketed annually has increased by more than five-fold. GARDENING WALKS In the smaller garden where visitors and children soon wear grass thin along the edges of ilow- er beds or between the house and tha swing or arbor, regular paths ara needed. With a little care they will add beauty to the rear of the garden, too. Most pleas- ing materials of all for this pur- pose are llagstones. These srs broad, flat, thin slabs of any soft stone, usually found in abundance around certain river beds. The stones are sunk llush with the ground and at least an inch and a half of grass is left between edges. Sometimes after the sod i.-s cut out the exact shape and depth of each stone, a little sand is added to the bottom of the hole, lor drainage and to make walk firmer. Built in this way the lawn mower will run right over the pathway. Other permanent walk materials are sand, cinder or brick. TRANSPLANTING Secret of successful transplant- ing is plenty of water. Of next importance will be shade and sti- mulant. Moving a plant is some- thing like an operation for a hu- man being, and the larger the specimen the more necessary the attention. With shrubbery and trees often main roots are cut and the shock is severe. Half a pail of water after setting out is not too much for such big things, and the watering should be repeated two or three times a week, if a quick start is wanted.

RADIO NOTES AND NEWS By MAOCE ARCHER TELEVISION PROSPECTS Soma radio stations in Canada are talking e.tperimeuts In telovl- sio and a likelihood of broadcasts in near future. This may be taken with the proverbial salt. In the first place it is doubtful it any private station in this counti-y can afford to make more than a tew minor ef- fort g. In the second place the CBC has clamped down on any pros- pects ot television in Canada being developed either privately or com- mercially or either. Nevertheless NBC is said to be prospecting along Broadway for tel- evision theatres. Columbia is talk- ing ot television Broadway produc- tions next season. And the theatres themselves ara preparing to do bat- tle with television as an approach- ing menace. AROUND THE DIAL NOTES AND NEWS . . . Hoa.
