GOLDEN TEXT Come now therefore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of farae! out of Egypt. Exodus 8 : 10. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time 1526-H4I5 B.f. Place. The events Identified with UIP liirth of Moses took place, jH-obably. near the city of Tanis, one of the royal residences In the northeast of the Delta, near the moutti of the Tanitic branch of the Nilf. The call of Moses took place in Midian, near Mount Sinai. The Call of Moses "Now Moses was keeping the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, he priw-t of Midian: and he led the nock to the back of the wild- erness, and came to the mountain of God, unto Horeb. And the angel of Jehovah appeared unto him in * flame of fire out of the midst of a tiuh'r. : and lie looked, and. he- hold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed. And Moses said. I will turn aside now, and see this great sight, why the bust is not burned." What Moses Saw The t ush which Moses beheld burning, was probably some spec- ies of thorn. The fire was super- natural and did not affect the vegetat^e life of the bush. This It was that arrested the attention of MfiKi-v. The mode of the divine appearance Is not without design. The J'uch that lives unscathed by the iamtifent flame that winds roun<] nil its leaves and branches t* ar. t-n:blem of that which is pure un<; -%ly, and therefore of the true ''li,.Trh of God in the furnace of affliction. Tho flame of fire corrfS'pcnds with the fiery trial through which the people of God have hsu! to pass, that the lusts of thp f>sh which had grown up In Ejrypr. might be consumed, and faith ace! its kindred virtues li. left Itfh.nd In all their visor and beauty. What Moses Heard "And when Jehovah saw that he turnn! a:de to see. God called to him out of the midst of the bush, and su ; <: Moses. Moses. And he aid. H>:e am I. And he sai.l. Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes f:om off thy fee-t. for the place whereon thou stantieth Is holy ground." Egyptians, before the time of Moses, and Orientals generally, removed their sandals or their shoes on entering; any placr tc which respect was due. It 1* worthy of notice that God Himself orders this mark of re- pect to be shown to the place which His presence has hallowed. "My People" "Moreover", he .said. "I am the Ood of thy father, the God of Ab- raham, the God of Isaac, and the Ood of Jacob. And Moses hid his face: for he was afraid to look upon ioc ' These words are used by our Lord to prove to the Sad- ducpfF. -n-ho clunt? to the letter of the Lfiw the truth of the resur- rection of the dead "And Jehovah said. I have sure- ly seer, the affliction of my people that are in Egypt, and have heard their cry by reason of their task- masters: for I know their sor- row*." Now for the first time, God calls Israel "My People," thus making Himself their KiiiR and the champion of their cause. Principle of Mediation "And f am come down to deliver them oiit of the laud of the Egyp- tians, and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large, unto a land flowing with milk Acd honey; unto the place of the Canaanite, and the> Hittite, and the Amorite, and the Perizzite. and the Hivite, and the Jebusite. And now, behold, the cry of the children of Israel Is come unto me: moreover I have seen the op- pression wherewith the Egyptians opprts? them. Come now there- fore, and I will send thee unto Pharaoh, that thou mayest bring forth my people the children of Israts out of. Egypt." If God has Himself come down to do the work of redemption what need of Moses? Throughout the fjnire scheme of divine gov- ernment we meet with the prin- ciple of, mediation. God ever peak? :c> men and works for UK-MI through the instrumentality of men. Moses' Humility "A ud Muses said unto God. who am I. 'hat 1 should KO unto Phar- aoh, and that I should bring forth the children of Israel out of Egypt ?" The men most fit for great missions are apt to deem themsc-h es unfit. In Moses' case, forty years of exile and of a shep- herd's life had unfitted him for dealing with a court and mad* blm a stranger to his brethren. Bven his age of eighty might well have seemed to him unsuitable. Qod'a Promise To Moes "And he said, Certainly I will ba with thee; and this shall be the toU't; unto thee, that I have ent tliee: when thou hast brought forth the people out of Egypt, y hall .) ve God upon this moun- tain." BEANS FOR BUTCH Butch, the English bull mascot of a battery at Camp Callan, Calif., has his own private mess kit, and is a bit irritated here as Serst. Andy Yuhas pretends to steal a bite. God never asks any of ua to undertake a great task until He Himself has first determined that this work must be done, that the hour is ripe for its accomplish- ment, and at the same time, that He will supply the strength, the wisdom, the guidance, and If need be, the miraculous intervention for the glorious achievement of that which He .undertakes. Moses wanted to do this kind of work forty years be-fore, but the hour had not come for such a deliver- ance. We often may want to do that which God wishes to 1)* done before the hour that God has ap- pointed for the doing of it. In the desire we are at one with God: we must watch that the execu- tion of the desire is also at the time God has set. SCOUTING . . . For the first lime in the history of Scouting in Canada liiw Boy Scouts camped overnight on June 11th on the grounds of Kidvuu Hall, official residence o[ the Gov- ernor-General ill Ottawa at the in- vitation of His Excellency who is the Chief Scout for Canada. On the following day t!ie Chief Scout attended a rally of se\eral hun- dred Wolf Cubs air!

John David Grix. aged 1.V The Sci.iit was an air raid messfiiiji'r and for two nishts he rc;i!i> his l>icycle> through heavy bombing to i-.i.-'-y out his defense duties. The award was made for "courage and de- ttrniin;iiion diirini; henvy raids on Norwich." Boy Scouts of Birmingham, Eng- land, as a good turn meet every train coming into the city each Saturday and deliver kitbass for servicemen and servicewomen. Teams of six work In relays, with four boys delivering bags, one act- ing as a guide, and another re- maining at the station as contact man. An unique tribute to the Boy Scout Movement Is paid by Lord Wedgewood, British labour poer. in his recently published book. "Testament to Democracy." In It he says: "Reflection leads me to the queer conclusion that of all the inventions of my age the three of real utility have been bicycles, Boy Scouts and the cinema. An for Baden-Powell's Boy Scouts. I hope they are still doing their daily good deed. There. Imagin- ation has Its fling as never before for the working class. The disci- pline and adventure of camping out, the common work and com- radeship, did a much to change the youth v of Britain as did Hit- ler's training In brutality and vio- lence to change the youth of Ger- many." America owns the longest con- tinuous footpath tn the world. Known as the Appalachian Way, it measures 2,183 mlies.

Fred Allen has been heard muttering the word "murder" recently. Whether he means to murder the Jack Benny show, or Jack, or. whether he ex- pects to he murdered himself, tlm alone will tell. Many followers of tuaf whim- sical microphone family. Vic and Sade, have been wondering during recent weeks what has happened to young Rush, who has been con- spicuous by his absence from the radio gatherings. Here's the ans- wer.

Britain Does Not Want Fat Bacon Faced with the necessity of filling the large bacon orders placed in Canada by Britain, hojf growers may be tempted to meet the requirements by following the line of least resistance, says The Windsor Star. This would be to increase the unit weisrht by fat- tening hogs more than usual. Thus, however, would be short- sighted policy. Such animals will not fill the bill. The Old Land wants lean bacon, and than does not come from fat hogs. The Dominion Department of Agriculture advises farmers that a 220-pound maximum for hogs ahouM be observed. The breeders should do everything possible to comply. Little is gained by rais- ing- hujre animals which yield * product not of the quality >1- ivanded. In fact, thia could be a serious factor in destroying British confidence in us and dam- airing our chances for retaining a rich market after the war. Spotlight To Aid In Sea Rescues Details of a tiny spotlight scarcely larger than a walnut but powerful enough to have a theo- retical range of 70 mile*, were disclosed recently by the West- injrhouse Electric and Manufac- turing Comany's lamp division. Ralph R. Brady, manager of commercial engintering at bh lamp plant in Bloomfield, N. J., aaid the lamps are packed in the rubber life rafts "with which all ocean-flying military aircraft are now equipped." Rafts are alao be- ing radio-equipped and Brady said fliers adrift might call for help over a distance of about 400 miles, then lead rescue ship* th* laat few miles by using the light Th six-watt lamp* operate from a small hand-cranked gen- erator included in the radio equip- OUR RADIO LOG TORONTO STATIONS CFRR SSOk, CBL 740k CKOL G80k.
