THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time November, A.D. 29. Place Pcrea. Who Will Be Saved? 22. "And he went on his way through cities and villages, teach- ing and journeying on unto Jer- usalem." Through these towns and villages he had sent the sev- enty in advance and h* was on the way through them now preaching as he went along. 23 (a). "And one said unto him. Lord are they few that ar* saved?" Why this question was asked at this time we do know, but we do know that every be- liever in Jesus Christ will be saved. 23 (b). And he said unto them, 24. Strive to enter in by the narrow door; for many, I say unto you, shall seek to enter in, and shall not be able" Jesus dots not answer the question asked because the answer is not one that He desires man to have, but He does speak of the more important problem, raised by this very question, namely, are we ourselves saved?. Acting Too Late 25. "When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, 'Lord, open to us,' and He shall answer and gay to you, I know you not who ye are. 26. then shall ye begin to say. We did eat and drink in thy presence, and thou didst teach in our streets." In its application to salation, this does not imply that there are any peopl* in the world, whom Jesus does not know about, but there are great multi- tudes whom Jesus does not know u His own. The Lord does not know these people because they have never com* to him befor*. They did not accept salvation when It waa pffered, and now, the time being over for salva- tion, they have no right to His hospitality. Without A Saviour 87. "And he shall say, I tell you I know not whence y* are, d*~ prt from me, all ye workers of iniquity." Inasmuch as salvation U from Christ alone, when H* ay i he rl.ies not know one, that means that person is without a Saviour. Inwardly the worker of Iniquity is separated from Jeaus, and, at last, the outward relation will be adjusted to the Inward, and departure from Hun will b* inevitable and that ia ruin. 28. "There shall be Ui weep- ing and the gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all tin prophets, in the kingdom of God, and yourselves cast forth with- out." Here is the fate of those barred out, presented with the greater intensity because con- trasted with the lot of the blessed. It is certain that the damned shall know fully of the joys of the blessed, and worse still, that they, too but for themselves, might be in the midst of thos* Joy*. Judgment Reversed 29. "And they shall come from the east and west, and from the north and south, and (hall ait down in the kingdom of God. 30. And behold, there are lart who hall be first, and there are first who shall be last." Whatever b* the number of those who are in the way of salvation, that which concerns us is that we should without delay secure a place among them. 31. "In that very hour them came certain Pharisees, saying to him, Get thee out, and go hence: for Herod would fuin kill thee." Jesus was in Perea, and therefor* within the dominions of Herod. It is impossible to say whether the message wns sent by H(>rod or wa invented by the Pharisees. Chriit'* Musion 32(a). "And he said unto them, Go and say to that fox, Kehol'l, I cast out demons and perform oures to-day and to-morrow." Hore the fox is used as a symbol of craftiness. Jesus .saw the inner h*art of Herod and therefore when he described him aa a fox, K* apoke the word of righteouu- nssa and of truth. It was not an pithet; it was a character in a word. 32(b). "And the third day I am perfected. 33. Nevertheless I must go on my way today and tomorrow and the day following.' for it cannot b* that a prophet perish nut of Jerusalum." cin ist did not resign his functions, h* did not decline to go on with his work. He said, I work in th* name of God and for tho ; <.<ni of mankind, and I inuat not b* stopped. If we hud more of that spirit we should sll do more work to the world.

If known, enhance) the pleasure one has in listening to the pro- gram! Take for instance, the Fred Allen Sunday night 9.00 o'clock shows: During the past few weeks, they've been scripted by Vick Knight, who also does the production on such famous 'one ahot' shows, M 'The President's March of Dimes' broadcast, and international 'Red Cross' Shows. Several weeks ago, the Army in- vited Vick to direct Its "Command Performance" internationally hort-wavad shows for the An ri- ean Fighting Forces! Vick'* spare-time wasn't sufficient to cover this nsw assignment! The problem: Give up a $600.00 a we*k job as Fred Allen's Scripter and take the Army work, full time, a* a volunteer director at nothing per week! That would talc* some deciding, you'll agree! But right now Vick Knight is in Hollywood, directing bigger and better "Command Performance" shows I Bogey'* Back Horror Man, Boris Karloff, master of the macabre, is now heard Sunday night* as guest on thi Inner Sanctum Mysterie* broadcast via the Blue Network, to a network of Canadian stations a* 8.30!

Bonui From Baker One of the shows a lot of Cana- dians thoroughly enjoy is the "Breakfast Club," broadcast by a majority of CBC stations daily at 9.00 a.m. Jack Baker, tenor of the show, recently sang a concert for convalescent soldiers and sail- ors at the O'Reilly General Hos- pital in Springfield, Missouri. And here's the bonus: Jack gave them, as a parting gift, a fine public- addresB system for the Hospital auditorium! An 1150 Littening Tip or Two The excitement, the danger, the brilliant execution of a mass bombing flight over military ob- jectives in Germany, is just one of the many spine-tingling epi- sodes in the life of the boys of the R.C.A.F. on Active Duty, brilliantly recreated for radio in the story "Flying For Freedom," heard from CKOC, Wednesday nights at 8.00 o'clock.

"O Jerusalem, Jurunnlem, that killeth the prophets, and toneth them that are sent unto her! how often would I have gath- ered thy children together, even aa a hen gathereth her own brood under her wing*, and ye would notl 35. Behold, your house is left unto you desolate: and 1 nay unto you, ye shall not sec me, until ye shall say, Blessed IB he that cometh in the name of the Lord." One of the inexplicable features of divine love is that, in spite of the Infallible fore- knowledge that all will be in vain, iU call and effort to save never ceases till the very end. When Jerusalem persistently refuaed to receive Christ a* her Saviour and a Prophet come from God, then God could do nothing ele but leave her to the fate which she was shaping for herself. Canada's production of crude petroleum and natural gasoline in 1941 totalled 10,123,532 bar- rels compared with 8,718,058 barrels in 1940 and 7,837,508 barrels in 1!39. Lesson In Attack For New Airmen New pilots with the Royal Can- adian Air Force Spitfire Squad- ron got a lesson not long ago from h veteran English command- ing officer when they took part in a sweep over the const of Northern France with another Canadian fighter unit. On the way across the channel a formation of Messerschmitts appeared far below and in the words of the commander: "Some of the more bloodthirsty Cana- dians wanted to dive and attack them". "I had to point out," he ad- ded, "there was another larger German formation considerably abov* us, waiting for us to do just that so it could attack us the moment we were involved In a scrap. The lads were disap- pointed, just the same" The sweep was the Canadians' second job of the day which started with a patrol over a con- voy moving along the British coast. Supply Of Wheat Larger Than Ever Surplus In Four Leading Nation* Biggest on Record Despite two successive short war crops and prospects that the 1942 production may be smaller yet, the world may have a large*, supply of wheat this year than ever before. This is because the surplus existing in the world's four leadr ing exporting nations United States, Canada, Australia and Ar- gentina is the largest on record. Rutiia Excluded The present prospects indicate a total 1942 crop for most of the world of around 3,950,000,000 bushels, or slightly less than was harvested last year. This figure compares with the record crop of 4,636,000,000 produced in 1938. Russia and China are excluded from the world figures because adequate information has not been available. The world again exclusive of Russia and China is expected to have a carryover of about 1,590,- 000,000 bushels of old wheat when the 1942 crop is harvested. Of this amount, only about 176,- 000,000 bushels were expected to b* held by countries other than the United States, Canada, Aust- ralia and Argentina. Famine ImpliecT The large stocks in the four exporting countries and small stocks in other countries . . . imply a serious bread situation In continental Europe. United States is expected to have a wheat supply of 1,425,- 000,000 bushels when this year's crop is harvested. The carryover of old wheat is estimated at about 630,000,000 bushels. This count- ry normally uses about 675,000,- 000 bushels a year for all pur- poses. The crop in Europe this year ii expected to be about the same as last year's below average har- vest. Bad weather, lack of labor and military operations have hin- dered farming operations there. Australia Calls Up More Land Forces The Australian Government or- dered that all Commonwealth land forces be brought up to full war strength by calling up additional personnel. The order requires all unmar- ried men between the ages of 18 and 46, as well aa married men from 18 to 35, to report imme- diately for military service. Army Minister Francis Forde laid the step was taken on recom- mendation of Gen. Sir Thomas Blarney, Commander of Allied land forces in Australia, and ap- plied to men who were already listed for service but who would not have been called for some time. Intensive battle training for all units was ordered by Gen. Blarney, Mr. Forde said. How War Affects Farm Auction Sale It Putt Pep Into It, Say* 1 h. Woodttock Sentinel-Review If you really want to know how the war is affecting Ontario, attend one of the farm auctions. Auctioneers say the attendance is away above the attendance be- fore the war and prices appear to ignore any such thin)? as price ceilings. Good quality farm ma- chinery is at a premium. Ancient binders dating from before tne Great \Vur, they say, find a ready market at prices more than half their original cost. Buggies are scarce and bring from $20 to $25. Before the war, buggies, good enough for the purpose, could be had at auction for $3. Three horses sold for $150 each. A year ago, the auctioneer said, these horses would have brought only from 175 to $90. A binder, which had cut two crops, sold for $285. The market price of the machine to- day, including Federal Tax, is $325. Most surprising of all, a manure spreader, bought second hand two years ago for $15, sold for $116. A crosscut saw, cost- ing $3.50 when new, sold for $5.25. Similarly, furniture brings prices which definitely put it in the antique class. I THIS CURIOUS WORLD % BEGINNING, ABOUT APRIL. (, VOUR.

NEXT; How wa the date ot Easter decided upont thousand pounds, which runs close to two hundred thousand dollars in our money, for exceeding its cosmetics sales quota under Brit- ain's wartime rationing laws, and was given three months to pay the fine. By the time the company suc- ceeds in paying that fine they will be looking back upon their profits and dividends as vanishing cream, a highly prized cosmetic in wo- men's lives, but something which the company will be very chary of disposing of in future. The British people have often been accused by their American brothers and cousins of being slow, but no one yet has ever ac- cused them of not being thorough, states the Huron Expositor.
