Printed Text--Genesis 44: 18--34. Golden Text--Let love of the breth- ren continue. Hebrews 13: 1. The Lesson In Its Setting Time:--The events in this lesson occurred during the seven years of famine, i.e.,, B.C .1716--B.C. 1710. Place:--The family of Jacob was probably residing near Beer-sheba in southern Palestine; Joseph was liv- ing in the capital of Egypt, Zoan, in the eastern part of the Nile Delta. The Plan of the Lesson Subject:--The Perfect Purposes of God and His Divine Overruling to Accomplish Them. "Then Judah came near unto him, and said, Oh, my lord, let thy serv- ant, I pray thee speak a word in my lord's ears, and let thine anger burn -against thy servant; for thou art even as Pharaoh." -- Judah first acknowledges the absolute supremacy of the o he is speaking. "My lord asked his sjrvants, say- ing, 'Have ye a father, of a brother? And we said unto my lprd, We have a father, an old man, gnd a child of his old age, a little/ one; and his brother is dead, angZhe alone is left of his mother; and his father loveth him.""-- Almost~ every word here is bound to appeal to the heart of Joseph--*'a fdther, an old man," "a a little one," "he alone is r," "his father loveth him." "And thou saidst unto thy serv- ants, Bring him down unto me, that I may set mine eyes upon him. And 'we said unto my lord, The lad can- not leave his father: for if he should leave his father, his father would die. And thou saidst unto thy serv- ants, Except your youngest brother come down with you, ye shall see my face no more. And it came to pass when we came up unto thy servant my father, we told him the words of my lord. And our father said, Go azain, buy us a little food. And we said, We cannot go down; if our youngest brother be with us, will we go down; for we may not sce the man's face, except our youngest brother be with us."--Though Judah is too burdened and his heart torn viith too great -an angu'sh to think of cleverness, yet he' could never Lave ssoken more movingly to the ne before whom he stcod if he had thought out his speech for weeks be- fore, because he is s'mply telling the cne who now demands that Benjamin remain in Egypt that a!l of this tragedy and trouble came about be- cause the one before whom he was speaking demanded that Benjamin be. brought down into Egypt against the strong wishes of the boy's "father. "And thy servant my father said unto us, Ye know that my wife bare me two sons. And the one went out from me, and I said, Surely he .is tera in pleees;.and I have not seen him since. And if ye take this one 'also_ from me, and harm befall him, ye wl bring down my gray hairs with sorrow to Sheol. Now there- for: when I come to thy servant my then father, and the lad is not with us; seeing that his life is bound up in the lad's life; it will come to pass, when he seeth that the-lad is not with us, that he 'will die; and thy servants will bring down the gray hairs of thy servant our father with sorrow to Sheol." --Let the lord be- fore whom he speaks realize that to . go back to Canaan - without this youngest. son will bring. the old, father prematurely in sorrow to the grave. Here Judah seems to appeal to the deepest emotions of the human heart, love for an aged parent, and a regard for ultimate consequences. "For thy servant became surety for the lad unto my father, saying, If T bring him not unto thee, then shall I bear the blame to my father for ever. Now therefore, let: thy servanf, I pray thee, abide instead of the lad a bondman to my lord; and let the lad go up with his brethren. For how shall I go up to. my father, if the lad be not with me? lest I see the evil that shall come on my father."--The whole argument is powerfully concluded by Judah's of- fering to take Benjamin's place. This appeal was not simply a succession Alfred Lunt Among the scores of Hollywood notables who turned out to roduction of "Idiot's Delight" were Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,, and Dolores Del Rio. > attend opening of Lynn Fontanne- (left to right): Cedric Gibbons, Marlene Dietrich, "Youth is a wonderful thing. It's of words superficially expressed, but 1 a shame to waste it on the young." --George Bernard Shaw. the -profoundest confessions of a broken heart are here proved. Judah would rather live the rest of his days in Egyptian slavery than to see his father die with a broken heart when he knew that Benjamin would not come home again, The sublime hero- ism of his noble act of self-sacrifice on the part of Judah would be. im- possible to over-estimate. The self- forgetful magnanimity of such an action has never been eclipsed and seldom rivalled. After words so exquisitely beautiful, and profoundly prophetic, it was impossible for Joseph to doubt that a complete. change had passed upon his brethren and in particular, upon Judah, since the day when he had eloquently urg- ed and they had wickedly consented to sell their brother Joseph, into Egypt. "Chr"st is our surety. He makes himself one with us (Heb. 2: 11). He sprang from Judah (Heb. 7: 14), He was accepted as cur subst'tute, was bound, abused, and crucified. He bore the curse for us (Ga'. 3: 13). Christ died for us who were below him. Furthermore, Christ pleads for us before the throne of the Father (Heb. 7: 25). The Character of Judah Judah's name had been given to him at his birth amid circumstances ¢f hope on the part of his mother, for Judah means "praise." His early youth did not, however, afford any proof whatever that he was living up to his splendid name. But in these later chapters, he comes to the fore with great force of character, and the whole tone of h's exquisite ap- peal in behalf of Benjamin shows that 'he is now living up to his name." The pressure of poverty, the stings of conscience, 'the deepening of family love, the checking of self- confidence, are a few of the ways in which Judah was brought into the line of true life and enabled to take the lead in these family troubles and sorrows (Heb. 12: 11). . Martin has said that he would have given---anything if he could pray to God as Judah prayed. to Joseph. Jresusvesre FY FARM NOTES | Conducted bv PROFESSOR HENRY (. BELL With the Co-Operation of the Various Departments of the Ontario Agricultural College. J. F. G. ef Halton Co., asks the fol- lowing questions: . * Question -- * Where can package bzes and equipment be secured?" Answer -- Package bees may be se- cured from F. W. Jones and Son, of Guelph, Ontario; W. A. Chrysler & Son, Chatham, Ontario; H. M. Clu- bine and Company, Brantford, Ontario as well as other distributors within the province. They may also be secur- ed from one of the many package producers in the Southern States. Question -- "Is {t nacesary to se- cure a permit to move of sell bees?" Answer -- The requirements under -the Bee Disease Act demand that an , owner or possessor of an apiary shall not sell, barter, give away or remove from the premises any bees or used aplary appliances or apparatus unless he has secured a permit from the Provincial Apiarist that such bees, used apiary appliances and aparatus have been properly dininfected ad are free from disease, Question -- "Is it necessary to feed package bees, and if so, how would you prepare it?" Answer -- "Package bees should be given at least ten pounds of sugar up, mixed, one of sugar to one of Water, by welght or measure, This may be fed in a ten pound pail, that has several perforated holes in the lid through which the liquid may be taken by the bees. The main object of feeding is to avoid starvation until the nectar secretion in flowers {s av- allable, Question' -- "When should potatoes be planted?" E. J., Ontario Co. Answer -- From experiments con- ducted at the Ontario Agricultural College for seven years in duplicate, figuring from plantings on May 20th to June 17th, there is a loss of 1 1:5- bushels per acre per day in early po- tatoes, 1 1-3 bushels per acre per day in late potatoes, and 1 1-4 bush- els per acre per day in a combination of early and late potatoes as the date of planting is delayed from the earl- fest to the latest time mentioned. Twins Stay Alike "Only If Together Twins don't stay alike if they do not stay together.. This is the gen- eral conclusion derived from a study of many pairs of twins, both identi- cal and non-identical, by a thrée- man research team at the University of Chicago, representing the sciences of biology. psychology, and statistics, Some of the twins had been reared together, others had been separated in 'infancy by. various chances of life, and brought up apart, It was found that if the two members of a pair of identical twins grew up in strongly different social and educa- tional surroundings, they "grew apart" as the years went on, and came to be quite unlike each other. s C3 "America without complete isola~ tion can never be sure of neutrality." --Dorothy Thompson, | "Efficiency is a thief of time, while idleness enriches time."--Dr, Lin Yutang. test to show good taste.

They warned, however, that only experts could use the gases because if they got out of control they "book worms". : These insects were described as "particularly harmful and very dif- ficult -to- combat" because they - are voracious eaters of nearly all kinds of materials, Apparently "book worms" are 'as undiscriminat'ng in reads anything that is printed.
