ee yy r Keep Life Normal Women Are Urged University of Western Ont. ario Woman Professor Advo- cates Preservation of Sane Outlook by Women of Can- ) ada =. Dr. University of Western Ontario, warned the Provincial Council of Wonien meeting at London, On- tarfo, that women should not ba so "hysterically" active in war effort that they fail to keep "the home- fires burning." Dr. Turville, who is assistant professor of romance languages and dean of women at Western, addressed a luncheon of the semi: annual convention on the topic, "Women's Place' in Canada." She declared that "one of the very best aids that women can be to society, especially in war- time, is to keep the normal rou- tine of life running smoothly along its accustomed grooves--- particularly in this war which iz journalistically said to be a "war of nerves." ~KEEP-HOME FIRES-BURNING - "Women, more than men, ave able to provide through social activities the relaxation necessary to preserve a sane outlook on life." "l think one of our prime du- ties is to keep the home fires burning," Dr. Turville stressed. "We shouldn't go off on Red Cross or other service tan: ots so hysterieally as to neglect the family circle. Life must go on as usual! if we are to have stamina ercugh to remain firm until the end."

"Kissing Book" Not Obligatory The Law Provides Solely That An Oath Must Be Bind- ing on A Witness' Conscience "Kissing the Book" is not a necessary part of the oath in courts of law, says a writer in the British Family Herald. The law provides that: an oath must be binding upon the witness' con- science He must also give some outward sign of its solemnity. If a Christian, he must hold the New Testament in his right hand, but kissing it is purely a custom: ary addition. EXCEPTIONS MADE Jews can swear on the Testament. Scotsmen can raise the right Hind, without a Bible. Quakers and Moravians can make an affirmation instead of an oath, by which they 'solemnly, sincerely 'and truly declare and affirm" that, etc. - Teeth Retrieved "By Bronchoscope- | Thanks to the use of a broncho- scope George Leibold, young Ay- ton, Ont, farmer, has a bridge- 'work of four teethr which hs swallowed, back. in his mouth with comparatively little 'damage to his gullet.

Matt, 7:16. Time ---~ The fitfeenth chapter of Ezekiel. was probably written in 591 B.C.: the Sermon on the Mount was delivered in the summer of A.D. 28: the First Epistla of Paul to the Corinthians was written about A.D, 56. Place -- Ezeklel lived in captiv- {ty in Tel-abib on the canal Chebar; the Sermon on the Mount was do- livered not 'far from the city of Capernaum, near the Sea of Gall- lee; the First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians was written by him from the city of Ephesus, , Our universities and schools make it thelr object to impart knowledge and create a love for knowledge, "but the Lord Jesus taught in order that he might create fine lives -- noble, strong and godly characters. THE BURNED VINE Ezek. 15:1, And the word of Je- hovah came unto me, saying, 2. Son of man, what is the vine-tree more than any tree, the vine-branch that is among the trees of the forest? 3. Shall wood be taken thereof to make any work? or will men take a piv of it to hang any vessel there- on? 4. Behold, it is cast into the fire for fuel; the fire hath devour- ed both the ends of it, and "the midst of it is burned, shall it yet be meot for any work? 6, Therefore thus saith the Lord Jehovah: As the forest, which I have given to the fire for fuel, so will I give the inhabitants' of Jerusalem. Chapter fifteen develops the theme that the presence of truly righteous men among a sinful and rebellious people will never suffice for the saving of these wicked, unright- eous citizens of the same vicinity. It was commonly considered among tho Lord's own heritage, a vine in- deed which he himself had plant- ed, and which he would watch over and care for, securing for It protec- tion and permanence In spite of _anything that the people of Israel might do. Under such a delusion the Israelites rofused-to believe the warnings which the prophet contin: ually - announced. In this chapter the prophet. Ezekiel takes up this very idea of Israel as the vineyard of the Lord, and from parallels in ceding predictions of Imminent cal amity. (The nations round about Israel are set forth symbolically here by the phrase, "the trees of the forest", while Israel is the vine). TODAY' Ss APPLICATION While this message is distinctly to Israel, surely It has a vital les- son for that particular class "of people, which, because they are members of some Cliristian church, think that. they are so under the special favor of God that they can continue in sin,<and do as they please, God does not judge men by religious affiliation, but by true life and character, and the vital rela- tionship of a man to the Lori 4 Jo- sus Christ. FUNCTION OF TRUE CHRISTIANS Matt. 5:13, Ye are the salt of the earth; but If the salt have lost its savor, wherewith shall it be salt. ed? it's thenceforth good for noth. ing, but to be cast out, trodden un- der foot of men. All that is best and most hopeful in mere worldly civil al evil. The counteractive of this is the Introduction of an element into society which will hold in check the forces that make for un- righteousness, and be ftselt an ele vating and purifying influence. Such an element Christians were to be in the world. 14. Ye are the light of-the world. A cit set on a hill cannot be hid. Christians are the light by means of which the world, the mass of mankind, may see the things of religion, may £2e vice. 15: Neither do men light a lamp, and put it under the bushel, but on the stand; and it shineth unto all that ar in the house, ("bu- shel" -- a basket eontaining about a peek). 16.

Use Weeder, Harrow To Destroy Weeds " Moisture conserved and many annual weeds killed in seedling stage, states John D. MacLeod, Ont. Dept. of Agriculture. The destruction of annual weeds in the seedling stage by the use of the weeder or harrow has much to commend it, says John D. MacLeod, Crops, Sceds and Weeds Branch, Ont. Dept. of Ag- riculture. A weeder is preferred but -the lever harrow or diamond toothed harrow may be used with care. When, spring grain crops and fall wheat which have not been seeded down are up 2 to 4 inches the weeder may be used, prefer- ably with the rows, in the after noon when plants are not =o brittle. This stirring of the sur face soil breaks the crust, forms a mulch, thereby conserving mois- ture and destroys many afnual weeds in the seedling stage. This method should never be employed immediately following a rain. A Practical Method The weed population in hoed crops such as corn and potatoes may be reduced to a minimum by the use of the weeder or harrow soon after plantthg and continued until the crop is 3 to 4 inches high. The weeder may even be used on sugar beets, mangels and turnips just after they are up in prove very helpful in controlling weeds with- out injuring the crop. A a This method is a practical one which has been adopted by many farmers throughout the Province with excellent results.
