In Jerusalem, probably in the temple. 41. "Now while the 1'harUeea were gathered together, Jesus d.-ki-ii them a question, 42. say- ing, What think ye of the Christ! Whose son is he? They say unto him, The son of David." By th word Christ, our Lord meant the Messiah, for the Hebrew word Messiah was translated in tho Greek language as ChrUtos, both words meaning the 'anointed cn.' That the Messiah ig the son of David is clearly taught in Psalm 110, and iu 2 Sam. 7, and is con- tinually referred to in the New Testament. The Son of David 43. "He saith unto them, How then doth David in the Spirit call him Lord, saying, 44. The Lord said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand. Till I put thine enemies underneath thy feet? 45. If David then calleth him Lord, how is he his son? 40. And no one was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions." Then Christ asked them, if the Messiah was to be the son of David, how could they account for the fact that in this very Measiuuic Psalm, David who wrote the I'salm, speaks of hit son the Messiah as Lord. How could a man have a son whom he referred to as divine? The son might call the father Lord as hi* master or superior, but how could the father, a king, speak of hi* son in this way? David'* Lord This question of Christ was a revealing question. Their con- ception of Messiah was a wrong conception. They came to him about their politics, they expected a Messiah who would lead an army, and break the yoke and set them free; but he said, You do not know your Messiah. You think of Him as coming in Da- vid's line, but He is more than David's Soil, Hu u David's Lord. Exhorting the Multitude I. "Then spake Jesus to the multitudes and to his disciples, 2. saying, The scribes and the 1'hari- sci-a sit on Moses' seat: 3. all things therefore whatsoever they bid you, these do and observe: but do not ye after their works; for they say, and do not." Christ here is careful to distinguish be- tween tho office of those false religious teachers and their actual practice, lie recognizes that they are worthy of being heard, as far as they upheld the Mosaic Law. They were said to 'sit in Moses scut'; that is, to be acting' in his place and to proclaim his laws as teachers of the revealed will 01 God. In so far as they were true to such a sacred office they were to be obeyed. It was their prac- tices however, which were to be avoided, especially their failure to follow their own precepts. To Be ; ii of Men 4. "Yea, they bind heavy bur- dens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with their finger. ii. Hut all their works they do to be seen of men: for they make broud their phylacteries, and enlarge the bor- ders of their garments, '>. and love the chief place at feasts, and the chief seats in the synagogues." The heavy burdens here referred to are the manifold, and often ridiculous, interpretations of the law of Moses, which these re- ligious leaders insisted that men must obey; elaborate luw.s con- cerning washing, tlie ^.ibbalh, business relationships. Men could not even n-rnc-mln-i tin; different laws they i-iiiicted, much loss con- tinually obey them. Phylactery six'iificti in classical Greek a guarded post, then a safeguard, finally an amulet, as guarding against, evil. Uin.i. The Master 7. "And the salutations in the market pluce.-, and to be railed of nieu, Kabbi. .-. Hm be not ye called Kabbi: for ono is' your teacher, and all ye are brethren, y. And call no man your father on the earth: for one is your Father, even he who is in heaven. 10. Neither be ye called master*. for one is your master, even the Christ." What our I,ord prohib- its is desire for the distinction involved in being recognized as a religious teacher. ServanU of Men II. "Hiii, he that greatest among you .shall be your .servant. 12. And whosoever shall exalt hinwelf shall be humbled; and whosoever shall humble himself shall be exalted."

Their writer all through their radio career is Don Quinn. Listen to McGee and Molly, Tues- day 9.30 p.m. CBC Network! * The average radio listener is a sturdy fellow with red blood coursing through his veins, ana half-inch armor plate for epider- mis. He u either impervious ot indifferent, and his nerves are made of spring steel. That is the considered opinion of Himan Brown, who directs the Blue Net- works shuddery Sunday night 8.30 "Inner Sanctum Mystery" Series. Right now, Himan's a be- widlered and disillusioned gentle- man. "We started out modestly on a small scale to test their (the lis- teners) mettle. We gave them vampires, snakes, deathly nursery rhymes. supernatural demons, zombies and black magic. The) loved it and asked for more. Not a sign of surrender maybe the; are a bit scared during the broad- casts, but the mail response shows they want 'om bigger and better more macabre and luore mac- abre weirder and weirderl And, 1 think we've got the answer! We've arranged to have the Bogey Man of them all, Boris Karloff, do a number of guest hows, in the best mystery yarns we can lay our hands on. We kinda figure that the boys ana girls who like their radio 'horror' in effective doses will lend an ear to his May 17th and June Tth ana 21st broadcasts!" Thanks Himan we're among the sturdy listeners, and we'll bt Ihrtening Sunday nights at 8.30, for the Inner Sanctum Mysteries!

A proud man, sooner or later, oomes into such circumstances that he is humiliated, whereas a man who lives a truly humble life ultimately, not of his own seek- ing, but in recognition of such a virtue on the part of others, is exalted among men. Sunday 7.00 p.m.), and custodian of Benny's ancient Maxwell, got his first big break in radio through a routine audition. The call was out for a Negro to play the part of a porter on a Chicago to Los Angeles train. A number ot prospects were auditioned before Anderson, who had just finished the role of Noah, in the movie "Green Pastures," won the as- signment. As he has since often done-, Eddie stole the show from Benny on that program Kastet Sunday 1937. Benny and his writers decided "Rochester" was too good to drop. So they kept him on the program by evolving the idea of an audacious valet. "Rochester" has been a fixture on the Jack Benny program since. He's done so well, he now has Ms own valet! Some 1150 Listening Tip* Interesting sidelight on radio broadcasting was afforded a num- ber of dealers and executives on Friday night, April '24th, when the "Bandwagon" show was done from the stage of the CKOC Radio Theatre. Joe Chrysdale, Howard Caine, Jean Gillard and all those associated with the show, including the assembled gather- ing, took part in the 'on the air* program. Incidentally, each Fri- day night's Bandwagon trips down Harmony Highways sparkle with novel program ideas, good music and good fun. The time is 8.30 from 1150 on your radio dial. If you're the kind of person who likes to set your dial with the assurance you can have a couple of hours of the best, enter- tainment in radio coming up, then tune to CKOC Sunday night at eight o'clock: Check these off: Might o'clock, Charlie McCarthy, 8.30 Inner Sanctum Mysteries, and 9.00 o'clock, the Fred Allen Variety Show! Rcord of the week, and a Sun- day on CKOC 1.30 p.m. Hit Parade favorite, is Glen Miller's "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree."

It used to be fun, remember? Now we're going to find out that it still is good fun and what ia better b> doing more walking we'M make ourselves fitter. There's no reason why only sol- diers should be trained to physi- cal fitness. In fact the members of our army need it more than they do we've got to be fit enough to do without things ao they can have them. Did you know that meii faint at the sight of blood, or at the thought of li, more easily than women? It's a fact. Perhaps not quite a fact from the strict angle of the clinical records of many oases that would accompany a medical statement, but at least for the purpose of this essay a fact! The statement comes from a faithful worker iu the Ottawa Itlood Donor Clinic of the Red Cross. Five days a week at that establishment streams of men and women go to offer five-sevenths of a pint of blood to be made into plasma and shipped to Euland for Canadian soldiers and bombed British civilians. For some reason or other largely psychological in the opin- ion of some of the volunteer work- ers some of the donors faint. It can't be from loss of blood many a soldier has lost more than that much blood and still had strength enough to "bawl out" the sweat- Ing Htretcherbearers for clumsi- ness. It is hardly likely the rea- son is delicacy for, In most cases, the fainter is apt to be a big husky male, while a little half-pint of a woman is not bothered at all. At the Montreal clluic on one occasion six men were sitting in the rest room eujoyiug the hot, sweet tea or coffee that is given to each donor while he rests for a few minutes following his turn on the table, when one of them keeled over. He was followed in a matter of minutes by four of the remaining five. What has all this to do with the Individual Citizen's Army? Quite a lot! For one thing and I should make it clear that many more people give their blood without faiutlug than do faint the giving of blood is a definite and easy piece of soldiering .that we can do in our sparo time. For another, this gives one ex- ample of why it la necessary for us to go easy on the sugar there are many better uses to which It can be put than just sweetening beverages Two facts that it is against the law to hoard sugar, and that the Hod Cross Blood Donor Clinic can put sugar to good use were brought home to Moutrealers re- cently when more than a quarter of a ton of sugar was handed over to the Red Cross by the Wartime I'rii'i-s and Trade Board. It had been seized from a hoard- er who was fined $100 and costs for "withholding from supply." After the fine was paid there still remained the question of the sugar. \VI:ilc i he- due had expiated the offence it was atill not possible for the owner to keep the sugar. It is against tiu> law to have 'more than two weeks' ration of sugar In your possession. Hence tin* windfall for the lilood Clinic, which now has a year's supply. And do you know what that year's si pply will do? Tin' clinic scmd to Toronto foi proci ssinK 400 nulls of blood per week. Tlir.t means tiiat 4410 lilood dimi rs K< t 4<M) s .vfvtened hever- an' .

How long Is It since you wrtit for a walk Wheat Acreage Cut In Western Canada Decrease of approximately 800,000 acres in Western Can- ada's wheat acreage from last year is estimated in a prelimin- ary survey by the agricultural de- partment of the Canadian Pacific Railway made public in the first of the railway's weekly crop re- ports. The report saya Manitoba's acreage may be about 11 percent down, Saskatchewan's about three percent and Alberta's about two percent. Total acreage to be sown to wheat in the three western prov- inces is placed at 20,755,000. Vacation War Work For Nazi Students German high school boys and girls will spend their summer vacations this year working in munitions factories under a plan mobilizing all the Reich's labor resources, Berlin despatches to the liaael National Zeitung say. Younger students are being mobilized for farm work, and schools in some sectors will be closed immediately so they may go into field camps, the despatches declared. Within a few weeks, it was said, there will be scarcely a German man or woman not en- gaged in some manner of wa work. The biggest gaps in the labot front, however, will be filled by increasing use of- war prisoners and civilians imported from con- quered lands, th'e advices report- ed. It was expected that most of these would be employed in fann- ing, but the difficulties of trans- portation were described as great because "the German railways have even more urgent tasks." Air Raid Wardens To Carry Lipstick Lipsticks as possible iiieaavers found their way into 65,000 first aid belts being distributed to air raid wardens in Massa- chusetts. Officials said use of lipstick is the simplest means of writing on a person's forehead identification, classification of in- juries and other information.
