"You startled me I thought you were dead. I heard the bang of a terrible gun off there where you went and didn't expect ever to see you again." His mother shook out ler feathers go that each would fall back in place. "You don't know your mother," said she, **No hunter finds me a second time in one day. That terrible gun didn't bang at me. When you saw me fly away from here I stopped in a thicket below .the hill just long enough to walk around a hit to keep those Dogs. busy should they come down there, then flow again and circled around so as to get back here without being seen by those hunters, and here 1 am." "And I'm glad you are replied the young Grouse. "Did you see what I did!" continued his mother. "I got up right between those hunters so that they couldn't shoot. I have found by long experience that while they are always ready to shoot us at this time of year they always take the greatest care never to shoot each other. That is why when I took to my wings I did it right etween them. As soon ag you can fly again you will have to learn the art of tree dodging." "What is tree dodginz?" ask- ed the young Grouse wondering- "Ohl" here,' ly. "Putting a tree between you and a hunter before he can use his terrible gun," replied Mrs. Grouse. "Once in a while tree dodging is useful in escaping from terrible guns. No one who fails to learn the art of tree dodg- ing will ever live long where there are hunters with terrible guns. Your father is one of the best tree dodgers I know of, and I am not bad at it myself, if I do say s0." "Were you ever the young Grouse. "Twice, but it was when I was young and without experience," replied Mrs. Grouse. "Then I guess you know how helpless I feel," gighed the young Grouse, "I know all about it," replied Mrs. Grouse. "I was worse off than you are, but here I am, The hunters haven't got me yet. You were lucky in that you merely lost som= feathers from vyorr wing. New ones will to'a their place and that wing will be as good as ever. It might have been broken. T hope that by tomorrow you will be able to travel. The sooner we get back to that part of the Green Forest from which Farmer Brown's Boy keeps the hunters away the better for us. Here a hunter is likely to appear at any time." The next morninz the young Grouse felt so much better that they started for home, Mrs. Grouse leading the way. They had not gone far when Mrs. Grouse told the young Grouse tn creep under a little pile of brush that they chanced to he close to and under no circumstances to move until she ghould call him. Then she stood motionless a short distance away, a pleture of alertness. A moment later the young Grouse saw a hunter with a terrible gun approaching. It was the same one who had killed his sister and wounded him and hig heart sank. The hunter had no Dog to help him. The young Grouse watched his mother, He guesged that she wouldn't fly unless ghe felt that she must.

Bill" Hainer. The equipment was transported on a truck loaned by one of the Scout's father. The Scouts had a real time with softball games, treasure hunts, swimming, signalling, etc. There was only one bad storm during the whole camp and no damage was done although lizhtning did some damage not far away. On the whole the weather wasn't what it might have been but Scouts smile and whistle through every difficulty. A camp fire was held each night and on one evening a Scout's father supplied us with the materials for a capital weiner roast while another fathe brought watermelon, Plenty of isitors were on hand throughout the week and everybody looks for- ward to the next camp, The 2nd Troop wishes to thank Mr. Wilson and Mr. McTavish, who greawy assisted in making this camp a suc- cess, 1st OSHAWA NEWS Last Saturday the annual Jam- boree was held at Alexandra Park It was according to the writer, more successful than last year's event.

The good ship 8th Oshawa has had a fine time lately with biz full meetings, peppy games, lots of instruction and all the rest that goes to make up a good program for a lot of frisky, frollicking Sea Scouts. Our boat, the "Nimrod," (beautiful name) has had plenty of service this summer and we know personally of certain sets of mus- of brush he stopped and picked up a stick, This he threw so that it landed close to Mrs, Grouse. There was a loud whir of wings and up she shot. Up went the gun of the hunter, but there was no bang. Mrs, Grouse had dodg- cd behind a tree and then, as the hunter had jumped to one side to get a clear shot, she dodged behind the trunk of another tree. That hunter didn't have a chance to shoot. It was wonderful to see her dodge in and out among those trees, all the time at tremendous speed. "So that is tree dodging," thought the young Grouse admir- ingly. "I wonder it I over will be able to learn it." (Copyright, 1932, by T. W. Burgess) The next story: "Reddy Fox Is Misled." cles that have expanded their form- er limits and given several tailors a little more employment, However that is beside the point, what we really mean, is that the 8th Oshawa has had a fine successful summer and is looking forward to a good winter season of indoor work. We had a fine meeting last Wed- nesday with most of the Scouts on deck. Patrol work started the eve- ning off, then a couple of games, after another Patrol session, a pat- rol competition in knowledge was arranged, each Scout putting down the different lights carried on ships at night on a piece of paper as well as he be could remember them from last weck's instruction period. The skipper them gave another instruc- tional talk on the parts of a sail- boat, The Seagulls are in the lead with thc Muskrats right on their heels or rather their tail-feathers. This Sunday, the Sea Scouts with the 8th Cub Pack and the 2nd Co, of Girl Guides and Brownies will hold their annual church service in the morning at Christ Anglican Churc.

A HEARTY WELCOME TO ALL --_-- SOME CHRISTIAN SOLUTIONS International Sunday School Les- son for October 23rd: "Problems of the Modern Home"--Joshua 24: 14, 15; Ephesians 6: 1-9, Golden Text: Joshua 24: 15. We have aother lesson today about the home and how to make 1t Christian, The committee that out- lined these lessons for us was evi- dently deeply impressed with the idea that the home was one of the most vitally important institutions that our modern society knows, that much of the health and wholesome- ness of the life of the community is dependent upon its spirit and at- mosphere and ideals, And that is a truth that cannot be too often or too strongly emphasized. Our lesson texts arc taken from both Old and New Testaments, In both the duty of obedience to par- ents and the paying of due rever- ence and honor to them are strong- ly emphasized. That emphasis was a very marked feature of Jewish life through very many centuries. Among no people that we know of was it more strongly marked, To disobey or to dishonor one's parents was among the greatest and most despicable of all sins. Paul, in his writing to the Ephe- sians, from which one of our lesson texts is taken, has the 'truly Jewish point of view as he stresses the duty of children toward their parents. He says, "Children, obey your parent" and "Honour thy rather and 1 thee, That it may be well and that thou mayst live on the earth. The respecting in honouring of one's parents was such a vitally good thing that it made not only for happiness and satisfaction but for health and lone life as well. To do that meant a falling into line vith the great laws that govern in the universe. Jut Paul added something to the Old Testament idea and the duty that it en stronely stressed. He not only said, "Children, obev vour par- ents," but He said also, "Ye fathers, provoke not vour children to wrath" Dr. Moffatt Intes "As for you fathers, do not exas- perate your children." Evidently the idea he has in his mind is that the relationship between parents and children is not one merely of com- mand on the one side and obedience on the other but a relationship of mt -al understanding and sympathy. Children are to give obedience and honeur to parents, of course, but on the zround that parents are rea- sonable and understanding and thoroughly sympathetic. And ap- parently he lays his commands up- on the parents huite as strongly as he does upon the children, and seems to imply that it. would be quite as serious a matter for fathers to be exasperating as for children to be disobedient, And that, we are bound to admit, was. rather up-to-date teaching for two thousand years ago. It is the kind of thing that wise men are saying today and strongly stressing, hut it is almost a new teaching even in our day, after all these centuries have gone. A child, even a very young child, is a personality, not to be dominated by the strong and ma- ture will of an adult, whether par- ent or teacher, but to be given room for its own individuality to grow and expand and to be controlled on- ly in so far as is absolutely neces- sary to its safety and well-being and never to be merely dominated by a stronger will for its own satis- faction. There isn't any doubt about it, that this dominating of parents ov- er children may become a very bad thing for both parents and children, and may fail utterly of the good purpose that it often has in view. It may be that obedience must sometimes be demanded, but .it is always to be remembered that such obedierice must always be a very second-best sort of thing, and alto- gether lacking that moral quality that goes with obedience that is in- telligently and willingly given. We see how good and wholesome Paul's teaching in regard to the re- lationships between parents and children is as we note how he ex- pounds his ideas touching other re- lationships in life, Though slavery was a recognized feature of the so- cial life of his time and Paul seems to have no open condemnation of it, he seems to have no command to lay upon the slave that he docs not lay upon his master, On the one part there is to be singleness of service and faithfulness in the per formance of duty, on the other part there is to be consideration and kindliness, 'with the full realization tka: both 'slave and slave cwner had the same Master and with Him w s no respect of. persons. Of couse ths carrying out of such 1 spi.it would soon put an end to slavery Whether Paul fully understood that thar we cannot say, but certainly he tran: the. verse, | had got hold of the great Christian principle that one day wiil sole all oar great social problems, | Christian Science First Church--64 Colborne St. E.

Barkby, was not spared to see the day when there would be the con- summation of reunion. He suffered a heart attack on the street and in a few days passed away. He was in Switzerland at the time. Mr. Jarkby was one of the Primitives his wife the daughter of the late Sir William Hartley, a leader among the laymen of that denomin- ation, The past week has been historic for all of the Methodist tradition, It began on Monday. with a civic reception at the Guilhall, London, by the Lord Mayor, Tuesday morn- in the Wesley Chapel City Road, there was a devotional meet- ing, preparatory to the Uniting Conference held in the Royal Al- ert Hall. Rev, William Younger, president of the Primitives, had the honor of presiding. The Duke and Duchess of York were at that meet- ing. Wednesday forenoon there was the Sacrament of the Lord's Supper, and in thesafternoon greet- in, + and addresses were heard at the Central Hall, Westminster. The new president, Dr, J. Scott Lidgett, gave his addressg ing, friends of Col. Raymond Robins are alarmed over his sud- den disappearance. Those closest to him fear either kidnapping or amnesia, and whichever it Is are hoping that his life may be spared. Recently he has been one of the speakers of the allied forces tor prohibition, His history goes back to the Klondyke days when he was extremely fortunate. Since that e he has given wealth and enerxyy on behalf of every form of social betterment and the spread of religion, As the election campaign pro- ceeds there seems to be fear that the south 1s going to choose the Democratic, ticket, The ministers and church leaders did not rally behind the standard of prohibition in the hands of the allied forces, many taking it to mean Hooverism 1 ther than prohibition. The south has not gone "wet," but it doubts the benefit of national prohibition. The Salvation Army in the Unit- ed States, according to Miss Ev- angeline Booth, the commander- in-chief, is strong for prohibition officers declare that they would rather fight the speakeasies than the saloons. The JE | The one hundredth anniversary of the Garden River, Anglican In- dian Mission, Algoma, has just becn celebrated. In 1832 their chief, Shingwauk, walked on snowshoes to York (Toronto) and pleaded with the Governor and Church au- thorlties to send someone to Chris- tianize his people. William Mec- Murray, a layman, was sent, reach- ing ti. Sault by foot and canoe, and continued for six years. The descendants of the chief are now among the faithful members. Bishop Sovereign has been throwing himself into the work of visiting in the Yukon Diocese. His first ordination wag at Whitehorse, the candidate being Rev. Owen W. R. Hughes. Harvest services were afterwards held in the church, which was prettily decorated, al- though severe frosts' during the summer had injured the crops. Bishop Sovereign expects to take hi: family from Vancouver this fall. Bishop Harding, of Qu'Appelle, |! held a confirmation service at Wa- wota, when nine boys and eight girls received the rite.

In In the first eight months of 1932 the V.O.N. has made. 72,405 visits and assisted at the birth of 1436 babies, Among interesting experiences of nurses this year, Miss Campbell mentioned a call which came from the village of Seminole Indians en- camped at the Exhibition, A six- year-old 'lad, Nushkato, was ill, but b:acuse of his fears of hospitals, the tribe would not allow him to be removed.
