if we wish to get a complete story of this great crime of the world we must read the four gos pels and include all the narratives 1 golgotha 33g8 v 33 the actual site of this is un known but it was evidently outside the walls of the city but not far away the name is explained as duo either to the fact that some skulls iad been discovered on the hill or to the ap pearand of the rock the traditional site is the place where now stands the church of the holy sepulchre but some years ago general gordon suggested n low hill outside the damascus gate whose form suggested the outline of a skull this has beer called gordons calvary but many doubt whether there is much to suppirt his views v 31 mark mentions myrrh instead of gall both of these have the pro perties of a drug and it was custom ary to give son such drink to crim inals in order to deaden the pain it js said that there was an association of wealthy women ir jerusalem who charged themselves with this office of refuses to accept he oercd drug since earing for such criminals but jesus refused to accept the offered dru sncc he desires to face his trial with a clear mind v 3 it is probable that the cross was after the latin form as one sees i in most of the pictures of the cruci fixior it would be about ten feet high this form of execution was very painful and very shameful it was reserved for slaves and provin cials who were regard i as especially c iiiinal the garments of the prisoner were buonoscd to be he perquisite oi the soldiers who were in charge from john 19 23 we learn thai the outer garments were distributed among the men but the inner garment which was made of very fine cloth was kept in tact and they east lots for it v 36 the soldiers sit down and watch lest any- one should come and attempt to take jesus down from the cross i the bevilehs 391i v 39 matthew mentions three dif ferent classes of revilers 1 the v unary onlookers there was evident ly a crowd of curious observe such as frequented these executions they were as heartless as most crowds ana they now catch up the charge which iad been laid against jesus before the jewish court that he had said re would destroy the temple and build it again these people now taunt him and his incompetence they cannct conceive of anything else than that a man would try to save himself if lie could just as in the temptation the devil nid if thou art the son of god so here tha people make the same cynical suggestion v 41 2 the chief priests and scribes represen the aristocratic and educated classes among the jews and they had been the agents in bringing about the death of jesus they now exult in the succes of their labor and tiey add this further evidence of their hatred in that they mock him in his moments of intense agonv they had asked pilate to place on the cross ho said he was the king of the jews and now they fling this taunt at him if thou be the king of israel v 43 these words may he taken from ps 22 and once again there is an attempt to mock at his divine claims v 44 3 the third class of revil ers consists of the two thieves who i ere crucified on either side f jesus they were likely political prisoners ard aro now punished in order to add to the ignominy of the occasion in luke wc have the story of the conver sion of one of two he appeals to jesus for forivoness and help and jcsii3 replies

the demon radio list eners have known iiiive the first signal tlashod through the ether still crackles and roars during the hot mouths but its rumblings are grow ing weaker the dream of the radio i engineer that it may be eliminated eutirely has not been realized but step by step it has been driven into the background i this year in contrast to the past radio listeners are not likely to let batteries run down and dust aceu- muate on the dials because programs will remain up to the winter stand ard and in the majority of cases re ceiving equipment now in use will bring in entertainment without iuer- ruption a multitude of factors is responsi ble for yearround radio broadly they may be summed up in a phrase improvement ot transmitters and receivers ten years ago 500 watts were regarded as high power for a broadcaster today 50000 watts are considered as high power this multiplication ot transmitting power has the same effect upon thol oldstyle sets as upon the new it increases the signal level over the noise level the result is that with any type of receiver programs should bo easily audible at all times at least fifty miles from a broadcaster the majority of receiving sets are believed to bo within this distance another improvement in reception brought about at the transmitting station is that in modulation a si rural education in ontario tor remembrance

of the activities of the association a number of trees have been planted along the kingston bypass road and dedicated to men who fell in the war the plaining of trees along other roads is now being planned only one thing can stop it the hooliganism that in some cases is defacing the inscriptions and dam aging the trees but one or two pro secutions would probably have a salu tary effect in checking this wanton vandalism the movement can only be fully successful however if a sufficient number of individuals or orguiza- tions are prepared to plant one or more trees but there is no lack of occasions which might be commem orated in this way royal national i and international events might all be marked by the planting of trees it is also suggested that private events such as weddings and births might be commemorated in the same way similarly if you have a serious ill ness when you get better you might plant a tree to celebrate your recov ery or if a friend or relative dies a tree

a hotbed and many other investigations that will naturally grow out of these studies the negative side of the debate can bo summed up under two heads in experience of the teacher and lack of time for extra work during school hours there is some foundation for com plaint as to tho inexperience of teach ers and far some reason or reasons not yet defined very few teachers are taking any effective agricultural course but all tho stories regarding tho ignorance of teachers in tho mat ter of farming are not true indeed some of tho stories seem to have been mado up merely to discredit the work of such teachers if teacher and pupils have an honest desire to learn thoy will not go far astray there is ample information at hand that is depend able but children mus be taught to study it as to time much of this work is done by successful teachers out ot school hours and the children enjoy it garden plots well raised poultry good calves plump pigs expert man ual products thees point to interest ed students and should be encouraged agriculture should be taught in the rural public schools even if it be in tho most elementary way intelligent interest in farming must be fostered samuel farmer

substitute for armaments its navy consisted of only two destroy ers in operation two destroyers auth orized by parliament to be built and three mine ships we in canada he continued should find substitutes when interna tional clouds gather wo should ap peal to arbitration not force we should instill into the people that there is some place to go in tlmos of strife and not resort to ships and
