And, too, we have known some ani- mals who show a lot more intelligence than some humans we have met! So the animals are our friends if we will permit them to be so, and it is our duty to prod¢ct them as much as we can, ' For this reason Scouts are taught that they should not hunt just for the sake of killing, but only for the pur Dose of obtaining food. That they should not destroy birds' nests, or take their eggs. A very much better idea, and one which provides a lot more fun, and is incidentally more difficult and requires a greater knowledge of the art of "stalking" (at which every Scout should be proficient), is to "hunt" birds and animals with a came era, and keep your collection of tro- phies in a snap-shot album! So, Lonies, always be a friend to animals, and when you hear someone dl g on the usel or bad- ness of a certain animal, you can al ways find something good about it, if you think a moment. * New Prairie Pheasants Thrive Some little time ago a number of Mongolian and Ring-necked pheasants were distributed in Southern Alberta, and Calgary Scouts have been watch- ing for them on their various hikes.

INTRODUCTION--Jacob was the thivd of the patriarchs, and, like Abraham and Isaac, was regarded as a na- tional hero. strange that the pesple of Tsrael found in Jacob one of their ideals. He was cunning, selfish and always had his eye on the main chance. Var- jous considerations, however, should be kept in mind. For one thing Jacob was not @ Christian, and it is unfair to measure him by Christian stand- ards. He was a ive nomad, though touched by tha spirit of God, and destined to serve God's purpose. of his own countrymen, especial- ly in later generations, were aware of his ects, See Hosea, hap. 12, Paul also was so conscious of his shortcomings that he drew the con- cision that God chose him for some other reason than that of human merit, Romans 9: 10-14. It is just possible, therefore, that the Israelite people regarded Jacob as a national type in which they saw their own character reflected, rather than as an example always to be followed. His character . stands in strong contrast .| to that of Esau, The two brothers are presented as rivals. The Bible never glosses over the fact that even bro- thers, springing from the same par- ents, may be divided by bitterest strife where one would expect only love Such rivalry is weirdly fascinating because it is so true to life. 1. CONTRASTED TYPES, vs. 27, 28. Jacob and Esau chose different oc- cupations. Their choice revealed at the outset the natural bent of their dispositions, . which their: vocations, once chosen, tended to confirm. Esau was a hunter; Jacob was a shepherd. Jacou is called a "plain" man; the Hebrew word here suggests that his was a settled mode of life. Esau loved the open spaces, with the exhil- aration of the chase; Jacob preferred his tent, and his floesk and herds. The hunter slays the animals which he takes in the chase; the shepherd keeps and tends his animals. The hunter often comes home exhausted, and unsuccessful in the hunt; the shepherd has always something to eat. If the hunter has enough to eat today, he does not think of tomorraw and its needs; the shepherd is accus- tomed to think not only of today, but of tomorrow, dnd of the day after. Thus Esau's decision to sell his birth. right (vs. 82, 88) was simply the com- pression of his mode of life into a s'ngle act. II. A FOOLISH BARGAIN, vs, 29-33. The figure.of Esau, the hunter, re- turning home tired and hungry, and ready to seize the mesrest food at hand, is depicted with great dramatic power. He points to the dish prepar- ed by Jacob, and asks for "the red, the red--this here," and in asking for it he indicdtes that he is ready to "swallow" it, Why doesn't he call the dish by its name--Ilentils? Because in his great impatience he does not take the time to examine the contents of would have it. Of course you will have spotted the the dish; he merely notices its red color.

Esau's other name is Edom, and he is regarded as the father of the Edom-|. ites, 86: 8, 19. Esau is all impulse. This is shown in v. 82, when he says, "Behold, I am going to die!" Jacob, jor the other hand, is crafty and far- i seeing. He uses the situation for kis own advantage. He thinks of the day when his father will die and Esau will become the head of the house through the law of the birthright. According to the Hebrew view, the firstborn, | whether of man or of animals, was the finest of the offspring. Preference also was shown to the eldest son of the Hebrew family, When the father , 14, 16, 18, 20 years, 36, 38 and 40|gied, the family possessions were left undivided, and .he eldest son stepped irto the father's place, He became the lord of his brothers; they paid | him 'such homage as was fitting to 'his ! position, 27: 29.
