Place.--On a mountain, the ex- act location of which is not known, 1. Judge not, that ye be not judged. The strict' meaning of the word "judge" is to distinguish, decide." The Lord forbids any of his subjects making final judgment about any "wman being. 2. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be meas- ured unto you. On the day of judgment those critics who have neglected to judge themselves will be found to be full of sins and short-comings which at last receive their_ just punishment. ~ 3. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that "i3 in thine own eye? 4. Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me cast out the mote out of thine eye; and lo, the beam is in thine own eye? b.. Thou hypocrite, cast out first -the beam out of thine own:eye; and then shalt thou see - clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye. By "beam" here is meant a beam of wood used often in holding up the roof of a house; au "mote" is a speck of dust. We ate all, prone to sus- pect ir the conduct of others pre- cisely those failings of which we are frequently guilty ourselves. 6. Give not that which is holy unto the dogs, neither cast your pearls before the swine, lest hap- ly they trample them under their feet, and_turn and rend you, Here is a caution against the cpposite .extreme to what Christ has just been rebuking. 'We must not judge others, "but we must not ~heedlessly expose sacred things to persons wholly wanting in appre. | ciation and sure to reject them. "Pearls" here may be taken as precious truths which have become our own. Nevertheless we can talk to the worst of human: crea- tures about the Lord Christ with- out casting before them. the holy ~ things of our vwn experiences, 7. Ask, and. it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, anu it shall be opened unto you: 8. for every one that asketh recei- veth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. - For a parallel passage see Luke 11:0-13. Our Lord does not, however, guarantee to us any- thing at first asking. God does not open his treasury to the tap of a careless hand which just touches the door and then passes on. Prayer is not a momentary wish- or a transitory whim. [It is the utterance of a confirmed and per- sistent - and - unwearying longing | If you want a prayer answered, 'you must 'go on praying. The Gospel is full of the kind of pray- er God yields to. PAE, 9. Or what fuan is there of you, who, 'if his son shall ask him a loaf, will give him a stone; 10. or if he shall ask for a fish, will give him a serpent? 11. If ye then, being evil, know how to give good | gifts unto your children, how much mote shall your Father who is in - heaven 'give good things to them that ask him. More and more as life advances we perceive, as: we cling to our ideals, how God has "all the while been bringing them to a 4arger und nobler realization than wé ever imagined. : 12, "All things therefore 'what- soever ye would that men should do unto you, even so do ye alsp unto them. for this is the law and the prophets. As Jesus came to- ward the close of his Sermon on - the Mount, he gathered together all che social teachings of the ser- mon and all the social teachings of the Biblé, and bound them to- ~ gether into the Golden Rule, The Rule is applicable to every rela- tionship of life. Jesus expects us to live by it in the home, in the | school, in 'the 'edmimunity, in the social "circle, in the church, in' 'business, in 'industrial life, 'and: in national and international affairs. He expects us to practise toward all men of all classes, all races, all eveeds. 18. Enter ye in by the narrow 'gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many are they that enter in thereby. 14, For narrow is the gate; and straighten. ed the way, that leadest unto life, and few are they that find it.'Man has the freedom to choose whethér he will take the road that leads to everlasting life or the road that leads- to destruction. The broad 'Woy is the .way of our own sel- "fish, sinful doing; the narrow way is the way, that God provided, apd in that 'way 'is Jesus Christ, and his redeeming, delivering work for ue. 3 v Major-General A, G.

They aro like precoclous children who cry for what they want, and again when tliey cannot get what they want::No thought is given to the hundreds of millions spent every year on their entertain. ment and the catering fo their wishes. For in America it Is the' public that dictates the type of pro- grams that are broadcast. Where else in the world can 150,000,000 people depend upon a consistent season of complete operatic broad- casts? For this is what we get from the Metropolitan each Saturday af- ternoon during the winter months. Through these broadcasts we are becoming familiar with tho whole treasure of operatic masterpieces, Finest Symphony, Drama " Every week we are treated to two concerts respectively by two of the finest symphony orchestras in the world, one of thesv directed" by the greatest living conductor. Needless to say this refers ot the NBC Symphony Orchestra and the New York Philharmonic. In drama, too, we are treated very generous- ly. A al Thousands upon thousands of dollars are spent weekly to give us varlety entertainment, Sponsors spare no expense to engage talent like that of Edgar Bergen, Jack Benny, tudy Vallee and a host of 'others whose names you know as well as I do, Most of them we in Canada, can hear on our network. On tho whole we have little to complain about. The CBC makes overy efiort to bring us the great programs of the American net. works and, barring a few sponsors of products without markets in this country, we hear just about ev- erything worth. while thero is to hear.

Ji Talman, Ph.D., assistant librarian at the University of Western On- tario. : Few Reached 90 "Most deaths in _pioncer days' were recorded at the age of one year or less and the next eycle of ; high mortality came at the age of 18, very few reached the age of 90," he declares. ' Opinions_given by the Western librarian based on findings he had made from searching of old par- ish registers and an average -.reached by picneers was 27, he said. The same result was obtain- ed from thre: different registers. A "search of the Christian Guard--- "fan of the period before 1839, where deaths of older citizens were recorded gave an average age of 32. » A large percentage of these "people - died of tuberculosis, he said, according to a doctor who read accounts of their deaths. Many appeared happy and cried _ out on their death beds. Too Much Salt Pork "People didn't thrive on the diet of those days," Dr. Talman con- tinued. "What did they die}of? You can't raise a child "on:salt "pork and potatoes and those were the main items of the diet of that period." He Avoids Dots Eligah Sansom, 49, of Charles- ton, W.Va, believes in spelling names according to your hand- writing ability. g Held for federal grand jury ac- tion on a charge of operating a 'still, he was asked by officers if his name were not spelled "Eli- jah." : BR "Nope," replied Sansom, "I spell it with a 'g' because it's eas- ~ier-to write." LS . 9:00 pm, CBL, Mal-; How To Fatten Up Your Turkeys 'Start A Month Before Selling Them ~-- Birds Thrive Best In Open Tuskeys thrive best in the opon, even during the fattening period, and the Tattening period, should start a month before itis Intended to gell them. Fattening sbould be commenced gradually with mashes fn the morning and at noon, and whole grain in the evening. When turkeys are shut up 'in pens they very often go of their teed and fre- quently die. : : Recommended Mash A recommended mash for turk: Toys {s made up of equal parts of ground oats, barley meal, cornmeal and wheat bran, Buckwheat way take the place of barley. Mix thor- oughly and moisten the mash with water or skimwilk abo' two hours before feedin_. Enough liquid should be used to make the feed crumbly and not sticky or sloppy. The mash should be given fn thor oughty-cleaned "V*" shaped troughs and no more feed should be served than the turkeys can clean up, The same mash may be used for the morning and noon feds. Whale corn is the best grain for fattening but it should not be fed heavily it the weather fs warm, Along with regular feeds, the turkeys should have plenty of fresh water and grit. ) How To Select = The Best Hens How can the best laying hens be selected in culling? This ques- tion was asked of C. E. Rohde, of the Missouri College of Agricul- ture recently. He answered as fol- lows: e At this season of the year, early-molting hens of the yellow- skinned variety will be observed as having much yellow color in their beaks and shanks. The am- ount of yellow coloring indicates the length of time these individ- uals have been on a vacation, The déepest colorings denote the 'longest vacations, and usually the ~ poorest-producing hens, Good, profitable hens present quite a contrasting appearance at this time of the year. These in- dividuals have a rugged, rough ~ appearance. Their feathers - are dry and inclined to be brittle. Quite frequently the main tail and wing feathers have been worh or broken off. The short feathers at the base of the comb are frequent- ly missing, giving a bald appear- ance, and the beak and shanks of birds of yellow-skinned varieties are practically devoid of any yel- low color. They appear bleached, because these individuals have been producing: eggs at a rate which resulted in the placing of all the yellow pigitent, obtained from their feed, in egg yolks rath- er than in storing it under the skin on visible body surfaces. «Handling and examination of these individuals will also reveal the desirable characteristics of "width ,and depth of body, bright, clear eyes, and heads which have a clean-cut appearance and with beaks which are short, slightly curved, and strong.
