GOLDEN TEXTâ€" We have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmltlee. Heb. 4: IG. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time. â€" Novem'ber-Deeember, A.D. 29. Place. â€" I'eraea, that part of Pal- estine which was east ot the Jor- dan River; opposite Judah. In this lesson we find continual emphasis on Christ's desire to turn the attention ot all men to the •wbject ot their own Individual, personal salvation, and away from apeculatiug about what will happen to othrr people, until thoy have determined in their own hearts to be right with God. Men are as lost today as when .Tesus was here, and j\ist as He' desired to save mon then, 80 He desires to save men now. "Except Ye Repent" Luko 13: 1. "Now there were some present at that very season wbo told him ot the Oalllaeans, whose blood Pilate had mingled with their sacrifices." W» have no record of the particular massacre which llie^se hearers now report to our Lord, but these pUgi-lms from Oalllee doubtless had come up to Jerusalem for one of the Feasts, probably Tabernacles, and had come into collision with the Romans, perhaps through some fanatical act of rebellion. 2. "Ami ho answered and said unto them. Think ye that the.se Oalllaeans were sinners above all the Ualllaeans, because they have suffered these things? S. 1 fell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all In like manner perish. 4. Or those eighteen, upon whom the tower In Slloam tell, and killed them, think ye that they were of- fenders above all the men that dwell In Jerusalem? B. I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." What our Lord Is here doing Is warning his audience that they should not first be concerned aibout distress that ha« happened to others, speculating concerning the cause for such, and concluding that those destroyed were particularly wicked men, but rathei- that they should look into their own hearts, discovering their own wickedness, until they realized that they too were worthy of sim- ilar dlMster and audden death, un- less tliery repented. To "repent" msana tundameotaUy, to turn around, to change one's mind, and then, to ehange one'e way ot llr- lag. Repentanoe means more than kelnx sorry fnr one's slo. It means to daliberttelr turn from one's •Ink. Healing anri Teaching 10. "And he w«s teaching In one o< tlie aynagoguea on tho sabbath day. It. And behold a woman that had H spirit ot infirmity eighteen yeAia; and shi> was bowed togetJi- «r, and could In no wise lift her- s«tt «p." It, "And when Jesus saw b«r. he «alla« har, aa4 aald te her, Wo- maa, thou art loosed from thine iBftmlty. II. And ba laid bis hands apoa her; snd Immedlslely she waa ms4e straight, and glorified aa4." Two things our Lord did. Ka spoke to b«>r sad He Utd his bands nn har. lie .nepnrsted her sat from the multitude In the syn- agofne, Junt si Ha iF>parale« every beUsTer front (U-? wnild of human- ity, dealing with each case individ- ually; and then He laid hands on her as a symbol of communicating power to her, enabling her tor the first time In eighteen years to stand upright. Whether this was a mlracla worked upon nerves or a ourrature of the epine, or, what is mora probalble, both, we are not told, but a miracle It was indeed. The Sabbath Day 14. "And the ruler of the syn- agogue, being moved with Indigna- tion because Jesus had healed on the salbbath, answered and said to tha muUtitude, There are six days In which men ought to wor^: In them therefore come and be healed, and not on the day ot the sabbath." This official was the chief of the elders who formed the local Sanhedrin. Though only first among his equals, the virtual rule ot the synagogue devolved upon him. That the daring Innovator, Jesus, should perform one of Ms Salbbath-breaking cures there was too much for him. 16. "But the Lord answered him, and said. Ye hypocrites, doth not each one ot you on the sabbath loose his ox or his ass from the stall, and lead him away to watering?" Surely one of God's chosen people was of more value than an ox: to be tied to a manger whloh dally yielded food wa4 nothing to the bondage In which this woman was held. Made For Man The Sabbath rest, meant for man's good, had been turned Into an Intolerable yoke of evil by these h)rpocrIte« . . These men were pre- tending zeal tor the Sabbath, while they -wore really moved by anger at the miracle, which would hare beeh equally unwelcome on any day of the week. They were pre- tending that their zeal for the Sab- bath -was the 'result of their zeal for God. while it was only teal for their raUblnlcal niceties, and had no religious element at all. 16. "And ought not this woman, being a daughter ot Abraham, whom Satan had bound, lo, these eighteen years, to have been loos- ed from this bond on the day ot the sabbath? 17. And as he said tbess things, all his adversaries were put to shame: and all the multitude rejoiced for all the glorious things that -were done/by him." Farm Notes . . . Ontario Winter Fear Sponsors Seed Show Will Ba Held in Toronto Week of Fabruary 10th States Vice> President E. K. Hampion Hot Temper Is Handicap Loses Friends; Better Learn to "Take It on the Chin" Wheat Storage Granted Ontario The Canadian Wheat Uoai'd haa announced that pursuant to the Canadian Wheat Board Act storaiie will bs paid on Ontario winter wheat stored by producers and subsequently delivered to the board between November 1, 1040 and June 30, 1941. Farm storage started October 8, 1940. Storage will be paid oa the same rale applicable en wheat stored in country elevators, 1-45 of a oant per bushel per day. A Winter Seed Show, similar io the successful show held last year, will again be sponsored bj the seed division of the Ont. Pro> vincial Winter Fair (Guolph Winter Pair) E. K. Hampson, Hamilton, vice^-president of the Fair announces. The show will be held the week of February 10th in the King Edward Hotel, Toronto, and will provide an op- portunity for dealers and farmers to view and purchase the best in seed girain. STRICTLY COMMERCIAL The show, Mr. Hampson points out, is strictly commercial and only those growers who have sub- stantial quantities of seed grain for sale will be eligible to com- pete in the various claases. The prize list and other par- ticulars are now available. All enquiries should be addressed to the secretary of the show, L. E, O'Neill, Parliament Buildings, Toronto. An uncontrolled temper is costly. By it one may lose friends. On its account many a youth and adult denies himself success alt school or at work. Many a job la lost in a temper. MANY A JOB LOST Nearly every one of us has fac- ed experiences when we were sure we were unjustly treated by a "boss". But when wise we have also learned to hold our tongues. We must learn "to take it on the chin". Let us always count the cost first, and not let our passion get the better of us. Many a child or whole family must enduire grave hardships be- cause the father-breadwinner, in a fit of temper, lost his job. A certain young father of two little children, who drove a milk wagon, desired one day to see a base- ball game. He drove his wagon outside a drug store, telephoned his boss but was denied parmls- sion to (o that day. In violent rags ha rammed the receiver onto the hook, left the horse and wax- en standing there and went to the game. It was a long while be- fore he found another Job, VOICE -jO Pw T H e PRESS INCIDENTAL HORROR Among the horrors of war count that sweater that every- body in the family helped to knit. â€" Stratford Becon-Herald. â€" â€" LONG ASSOCIATIONS The longer we live in a town, the more it means to us, in ad- dition to the present there are the accumulations of the past. â€" Kitchener Record. â€" o â€" REAL JOB FOR SCIENCE Science has done a good deal for the farmer, but it has not yet succeeded in showing him how to retire like his father and grandfather used to do. â€" Peterborough Examiner. â€" â€" UNDIGNIFIED AND UNSAFE Few soMiers desire to stand at the side of the road and 'thumb a ride", as they find It humiliating. Hitch-hiking also is unsafe for every pedestrian in these days of heavy traffic. The Canadian people do not desire bo sea their men of the fighting services exposed to these condi- tions; they feel that, with the rail- ways available, and the sums that are being spent on the war, the country's finances are not g*- ing to be impaired by providiiiig free rides in trains which often are half empty anyway. Butter Dearth Fear Needless If tile supply should really run short, there can always be trans- portation from Australia and New Zealand with no restrictions what- ever save a five-cent a pound cus- toms duty. Down under. It Is al- ways June, in cui' January. There is plenty of butter to buy there, if need be, and If ships for its com- mercial transport are available. -Mthough it is the capital of Iceland, the temperature of Rajr- kjavik rarely goes below freaxinf- point. PiKduction of the aircraft i»- duatry in anada during 1939 waa valued at $12,638,470 as a«aiM* $6,927,105 in the preceding T**. Many Canadians Have Stock- ed Up And Antipodes Stores Always Available As In the last war, when butter was very high of price, so today, when the price Is not so high but rising rather ominously, Canadian householders are shown In many cases as having taken time by the forelock. They have been storing up. It may be the 50-pound bos or crock, but many creameries from all over report to the regulating authority at Ottawa that a lot ot this has been going on since the early tall. Thus, it is figured that the quan- tities referred to In the statistics as being in public storage â€" about 42,000,000 pounds â€" Is far from the whole picture. Thousands of pounds are reported to be In cellars or out on the balconies. In cases where colder refrigeration Is need- ed. Every box or crock put away will by that much, lessen the con- sumer demand for butter at the ooni&r groceries. MANY PUT AWAY BOXES The War Price Board Is not worrying aibout any shortage of this essential fat. Nor Is It con- sidering rationing or the thinning ot cream, ice cream, or the skim- ming of milk for table use.
