Few people realize that the great Canadian National Exhibition which tills year enters its fifty-ninth consecutive consecutive year of operation and is universally universally acknowledged to be the world's greatest annual exhibition, is the direct direct descendant of the Niagara Agricultural Agricultural Society founded in 1792 under under the patronage of John Graves Sim- coe, Governor of Upper Canada. This society founded to aid the development development of the products of the farm, so that the sturdy pioneers of Upper Canada Canada might benefit in their fight against the wilderness by the pooling of their knowledge and experience, did a mighty work in the development of the, struggling colony. Having in the intervening decades grown away from the parochial limitations limitations inevitably set by nature upon that Society, the Canadian National Exhibition has never lost sight of the original purpose for which it was founded, namely for the encouragement encouragement of agriculture and industry; so that today we find the basic industry more firmly than ever established as the foundation upon which the superstructure superstructure of the "Show Window of the Nations" is raised.

Also in keeping with the spirit of Coronation Year, special medals and handsomely embossed diplomas will be awarded. In other fields the Canadian National National Exhibition has encouraged the development development of Canadian livestock. One of these is the trotting and pacing races.

Hollywood on Parade, which can best be described as a revelation revelation of "movies" from the inside, taking in every phase of the making of a moving picture. There are many more interesting, tnirth-provoking and instructive features of Frol-Ex-land which sets its apart as being in the forefront of the amusement world. Of the utmost importance is the fact that exhibit space in the many buildings of the Canadian National Exhibition is in greater demand than has been the case since 1930, Space rentals as a whole are ten to fifteen per cent, higher than 'ast year, and since the Exhibition has for years been acknowledged as Canada's busi- iness barometer this is indeed indicative indicative of the Dominion's increasing prosperity. prosperity. , Overseas Exhibits Overseas exhibits are bigger and more comprehensive than ever before, the British Empire being particularly well represented.

Sunday School Lesson GOD CONDEMNS INTEMPERANCE Lev. 10:1, 2, 8-11 GOLDEN TEXT -- Romans 14:21. "It is good not to eat flesh, nor to drink wine, nor to do anything, whereby thy brother stumbleth." "And Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, took each of them his censer, and put fire therein, and,, laid incense thereon, and offered strange fire before before Jehovah, which he had not commanded commanded them. And there came forth fire from before Jehovah, and devoured devoured them, and they died before Jehovah." Jehovah." The first section of our lesson has really no relation to the subject of temperance and the drinking of wine, though in it is the record of a sad incident occurring during the forty forty years of Israel's wanderings, which has served for centuries as a powerful powerful warning against serving God in a presumptuous and self-willed manner. manner. Two sons of Aaron. Nadab and Abiliu, putting fire in their respective censers, offered strange fire before the Lord, which he had not commanded commanded them, and immediately by fire, God slew them. What this strange fire was has been a question of dispute among commentators for a long time, but at least we know.that they offered this fire either in a way not commanded, or at a time not commanded, or in a place not commanded, or, perhaps, in each and all of these ways, they offered offered fire not commanded of the Lord. "And Jehovah spake unto Aaron, saying." A Statute Forever "Drink no wine nor strong drink, thou, nor thy sons with thee, when ye go into the tent of meeting, that ye die not; it shall be a statute for over, throughout your generations. And that ye may make a distinction between the holy and the common", and between the unclean and the clean. And that ye may teach the children children of Israel, all the statutes 'which Jehovah hath spoken unto them by Moses." In this paragraph wo have the first word of many spoken by the Lord down through the ages against the drinking of wine. "It is not for kings, O Lemuel, it is not for kings to drink wine; nor for princes to say, where is strong drink? Lest they drink, and forget the law, and pervert the justice due to any that is afflicted." If the king who is here called Lemuel is not King Solo-, mon himself, we do not know who he might be, for he is never referred to in any other place in the Bible except in the first four verses of this chapter. chapter. While the words in the preceding section forbade wine to the priests of God's people, the words here are a warning against the drinking of intoxicating intoxicating liquors on the part of kings and princes, and the reason given for such a prohibition is that, by heavily drinking, those in whose hands government government and the execution of the law rest would he in danger of forgetting the law of the land, and being unjust to those who are in trouble. "Woe to the crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephriam, and to the fading fading flower of his glorious beauty, that is on the head of the fat valley of them that are overcome with wine!" Ephriam is only another name for Samaria, Samaria, or the northern kingdom, com prising the area occupied by ten of the twelve tribes of Israel, of which Ephriam was the leading tribe. "Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one; as a tempest of hail, a destroying storm, as a tempest of mighty waters overflowing, will be cast down to the earth with the hand. The crown of pride of the drunkards of Ephriam shall be trodden under foot." This is a reference 1 to the Assyrians, Assyrians, whom the Lord would use as an agency for the punishment of his own people because of their stubbornness stubbornness and wickedness. "And the fading flower of his glorious glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be as the first- ripe fig before the summer; which when hé that looketh upon it, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up," The first ripe fig ripened in June, while the common fig does not ripen until August. The idea here is that the early fig would be plucked and eaten with great greediness, rather than picked and put away for future use. Prophetically Isaiah is telling the Samaritans that, as soon as the Assyrians Assyrians should see their beautiful country, country, they would rush upon it and destroy destroy it, "In that day will Jehovah of hosts become a crown of glory, and a diadem diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people." The threat is now followed by a promise. The place of the false glory thus overthrown is now filled by a glory that is divine and" true. The rempant of his people is not Judah, Judah, but Judah and the remaining, portion portion of Ephriam, as distinguished from the portion which had perished. After the perishable thing in which they gloried had been swept away, the eternal person of Jehovah himself himself would be the ornament and the pride of his people. "And a spirit of justice to him that sitteth in judgment." (See Isa. 11:2; 32.15, 16; 1 Kings 3:28; John 5:30.) The phrase undoubtedly means that the day would come (we do not believe believe it has yet come) when those who judge in the land will do so in the illumination of the very Spirit of God who will be to such judges a spirit of justice. "And • strength to them that turn back the battle at the gate." This must undoubtedly refer to the turning back of the hosts of Sennacherib which were beseiging the city of Jerusalem during the reign of Bezekiah, the vivid record of which is to be found in 2 Chronicle. 32 and in 2 Kings 19. "And even these reel with wine." This paragraph refers to those within the kingdom of Judah, who, though they saw the terribly disastrous effects effects of drunkenness upon their northern northern brethren, still continued to indulge indulge in the same vice. "And stagger with strong drink; the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine; they stagger stagger with strong drink; they err in vi sion." To he swallowed up of wine, is a vivid way of expressing the terrible fact that they were in the complete grip of the sin of intoxication, their very reason, strength, and virtue devoured devoured by such indulgences. "They stumble in judgment." Foi every true minister of the gospel and for all worthy priests, occasions must arise, with more or less frequency, in which they will be called upon to render judgment, and give advice or comfort in the moat critical and dell- cate problems of life, which will demand demand the clearest mind and the purest purest heart for proper evaluation. Every one knows that intoxicating liquor, v becloud the mind; one does not hear accurately, the delicate fibers of the, mind do not function readily or in unison, and one says the most foolish things, and thinks generally the wickedest wickedest thoughts, when under the power power of such a demon as drink. Alcoholic Alcoholic beverages are not the only things that" becloud the minds of ministers. ■ Open 10 A.M. to 9 P.M.
