This scheme replaces the "pomination system" whereby the children are sent by their ~parents to friends or relatives here who may be unable to as- sume the burden of their care. - The announcement was made by B. W. Heise, provincial -super- intendent - of the society, and George Tattle, deputy minister of welfare® TT SOMETIMES CAN'T TAKE CHILD Under the new scheme, it was explained, action is initiated. This eliminates situations that have arisen, it was said, where a child, nominated by his parents to snmeone here, arrived' with no home ip.mediately available, due ~ to the Inability of the person to whom . the child was sent, to as- sunze the obligation. Has Leading Role In Exhibition Play ALAN KING Since attending school in Tient- sin, North China, during the rev- olution there when public execu- tions. were taking place daily and ' the entire Chinese city was burn. ed by the revolutionaries, there has been a lot of drama in the life of Alan King. Most of his ex- periences have been in the Bri- tish Empire and so it is natural that he should play a leading sole in the stirring play "We Fight For Freedom" at the Pavilion of Industrial Chemistry duting the Canadian National Exhibition, LESSON X INVITING OTHERS TO 'WORSHIP GOD Psalms 67, 96, 98 Printed Text, Psalm 968 Golden Text: "O magnify Jehovah with me, And let us exalt his name together," Ps. 34:3. THE LESSON IN ITS SETTING Time -- It is generally consider- ed that all of theso psalms are lat- "er than the time of David, but for determining exactly when they were written we simply do not have sufficient data.. Placo -- Inasmuch as these psalms were for the most part used fn the choral singing of the temple, they may be said to relate to the service of worship as carrled on in Jerusalem, though geographical de- tails are missing. In this lesson we find some ot the most beautiful expressions re- lating to the soul's experience in the worship of God that are to be found in tho world's finest religious literature, be it Hobrew or Chris tian. Let us saturate ourselves in these worship-less days with just such psalms as these, that our souls 'may have the most beautiful and heavenly language available for such a sacred act as approaching Cod in praise and adoration. Old as these psalms are, wo supremely need them in this particular age of ours. - This little psalm; like Psalm 65, secs In abundant harvests a type and witness of God's kindness, And Psalm 67 is evidently much later than the. age of David, though it might" have been composed even in the time ot Hezekiah, when the great hope began to bo entertained of God's blessing towards the na- "tion. Tho psalm is a fervent ex- pression of a well-grounded hope, not a prophecy; it is the joyful out- pouring of a heart which longs to sco tho God and King of Israel be- ing acknowledged and worshipped as God and King of the world. SING UNTO THE LORD Psalm 96 is a call for all the earth to sing praises unto tho Lord. 1. Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song; Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth. This Is taken from Isa, 42: 110. Fresh mercies demand fresh ex- presslonsjof thanksgiving, and the deliverance of Israel from Babylon _iaugurates a new stage in the na- " tion's history. 2. Sing unto Jehovah, __ bless his name; show forth his sal- vation from day to day. 3. Declare his glory among the nations, his marvellous works among all the . peoples, Only those can declare the glory of God and his wonders who - know God. WORTHY OF ADORATION 4, For great is Jehovah, and he is greatly to be praised: He Is to bo feared above all gods. 5. For all tho gods of the peoples are idols; but Jehovah made the heavens, 6. Honor and majesty are before him: Strongth and beauty are in his sanctuary, Sufficient strength Is the constant impartation of God's own nature to those who constant. ly abide within tho sanctuary, 7. Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kin- dreds of the peoples, 'Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength, 8. Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts, . Oh worship Jehovah in holy ar- ray: Tremble before him, all the earth, ~ Here Is a glorious appeal to the nations to ackndwledge Jehovah. Men givo unto the Lord glory when they acknowledge that God is him- self supremely glorious, and when thoy desire that all which they do in thelr own lives may be accord: ing that glory, may be a reflection of God's glory; they are ascri strength unto Jehovah when they acknowledge that God on -the ono hand is alone omnipotent, and, on the other hand, is alone worthy ot recelving the offering of the strength of men. Men ought to live in sua a way that thelr llves are a constant acknowledgement of and a reflection of the holy character of God himself.

So delicate the balance between Germany's victory and defeat over England appeared to be, that a conflict arising In the Balkans could upsot It... The R.A.F. remained masters of the British sky, and the defencos ot England held , ., It was estim- ated that. one-sixth of the entire German alr forco was being used in tho aerlal offensive against the R.AF. and in tho attempt to break the spirit of the British people . . . During the week the German plan of mass bombing attacks seemed to have been abandoned In favor of "nuisance" vombing flights of ono or two or three planes; and night after night the sleep of harassed Britons was punctuated by enforced trips to air-rald shelters ...

In Rome, It was general ly belioved that Italy's offensive when it came would either be dir- ected against British forces station ed in Egypt (in which case Egypt would be thrown into the war); or that tho big push might be pointed against the Anglo-Egyptian Sudan, with the aim of joining Libya and Kast Africa. Japan Consolidates In the Far East, while Japan .awaited the "go" signal from Eur- gpo to step ahead with her avowed program of expansion in the South Seas, Nipponese statesmen wero busy revamping the diplomatic ser- vies, following recall of five ambas- | sadors and nineteon ministers (in- cluding the one to Canada) ., . and were working at a new understand- ing with the Soviet Union, following the signing of the New Manchu: Mongol border agreement, in an ef- fort to consolidate the Japanose northern flank . . .

Fertilizing Wheat The rate at which fertilizer is applied to the acre for Wheat has a very important bearing on re- sults obtained, writes Prof. Henry G. Bell of the Ontario Agricul tural College, Guelph. Wheat re- moves a moderate amount of plantfood from the soil. A "30 bus. crop-removes 50 Ibs. nitro- gen, 20 of phosphoric acid and 30 of potash. If the Wheat soil does not con- tain at least this amount of avail- able plantfood during the grow- ing period of the crop, normal yields "will not be obtained. Amount And Balance In the addition of fertilizers It "is not the intention of the grower to add to the soil all of the plant- food that a normal crop would remove. However, experiment and experience confirm and establish --the fact that if no other factor such as'shortage of moisture, poor seed or the like limit the growth of Wheat, the yield is directly influenced by the amount and balance of plantfood added. Bight tests as to the effect _of- rates of fertilizers were con- ducted in representative Wheat growing sections of the province. The following standard fertilizers were used: --0-12-10, 0-12-6, 0-16-6, 2-12-6, 2-12-10, 2-16-6. These were applied on % acre plots at 250 and 125 lbs. per acre, and an equal area without fertilizer was grown as check. Results are as follows: -- Rate Av. Yield Per Ac. Gain 0- 22.5 125 lbs. 29.2 6.7 bus. 250 lbs. 35.1 12.6 bus, The difference in cost ranges from approximately $1.56 and $2.00 for 125 Ibs. per acre of fertilizers used on Wheat to double these figures for 250 Ibs. per acre.
