doiaar first bear in sixty years in essa twp former mascot shot a black bear which had been on the rampage in essa town ship seven miles north of allis- ton was shot on the farm of wilbur gibson halfamile east of the camp borden limits the bear was seen by fred gibson 20 and his brother everett 16 as they drove a team to the west farm of their fathers property facing on the fourth line the bear came out from a bush behind a number of cattle that had been grazing among the trees instantly the horses snorted and reared up on their hind legs the boys drove the team back to the house and called their father carrying a shotgun and accompanied by the boys armed with axes mr gibson went to the west farm and found the bear chasing the cattle around a ten acre field the cattle were frothing and ran into the barnyard with the bear in hot pursuit as it passed the yard gate mr gibson fired a shot and struck the bear in the side while mr gibson was reload ing the bear entered a hole in a hen house bruin was despatch ed with another shot in the head the bear weighed 125 pounds a neighbor jack cocrane has during the past few weeks re ported the loss of several lambs and sheep and their destruction was blamed on dogs except for two bear cubs which were found dead on the ice of the nottawasaga river two years ago this is the first instance of st bear having been shot in essa township in the past 60 years unfortunately the bear had been a mascot at camp borden but had been turned loose by the camp to make his own living sunday school les son ijcsson for jlay 12 habakkuks faith gomen text the just shall live by his faith hab 24 the liessox as a whom habakkuk prophesied some time before the fall of jerusalem and the exile of the jews in babylon but in the reign of what king we are not told his work is somewhat in the form of a dialogue in which the seer himself and jehovah are in conversation concerning the evils everywhere prevalent and gods way of dealing with them in the first four verses of chapter one habakkuk complains of the iniquity and violence which were so mani fest jehovahs answore is given in verses 5 to 11 he has seen it all and judgment is soon to fall he is about to raise up the chaldeans for the chastening of his people in the remaining verses of the chapter the prophet protests against the use of so wicked a nation to punish judah he is perplexed that the holy one shoud sanction sluch a procedure for the moment there is no answer from god so hab akkuk takes his stand upon the watchtower waiting until the en igma may be solved at last the answer comes the just shall live by faith the righteous man has to trust god assured that lie will make all plain at last then in verses a to 20 the voice of god speaks in majesty showing that he does not approve of the wicked but though he will use an evil nation as a rod when he has accomplished his purpose it too shall lb dealt with and god will he glorified at last this moves the prophets heart to prayer and subdues his distress ed spirit as set forth in chapter 3 wherein he pours out his soul in supplication for his people and ex presses the most blessed resignation to the will of god verse by verso haib 112 thou has ordained thom for judgment this is a prin ciple in gods ways with men he uses one nation to chasten another and it in turn is dealt with by some other power this is a part of the philosophy of hi3tory of which the natural man who refuses to accept divine revelation understands noth ing verso 13 wherefore iookest thou upon them that deal treacher ously the prophet could not understand how he who is of pur er eyes than to behold evil coud consider using so godless and cruel a people as the chaldeans to afflict the chosen nation because of their failures and sins for they seemed after all to be more righteous than their foes verse 14 makest men as th fishes as the creeping things so contemptuous were the babylon ians of other nations that the treated them like the lowest of the brute creation torturing merciless ly and slaughtering them with nc apparent compunction see the cast of zedekiah and his sons later jer 521011 verse 15 they rejoice and ar glad to these dreadful foes catch ing and destroying men was just i mere sport like angling for fish oi catching them in a uet utterly in different to the anguish of theii victims they exulted in their blood victories and rejoiced over tin weaker nations which they si easily defeated and almost an nihilated verse 1g they sacrifice unt their net and burn incense uriti their drag they glorified th means used to subdue other nation and gave credit for their victorie to their unhallowed methods whicl were linked with the worship o their bloodloving divinities fo baylon was the very fountainhead o idolatry and that of the most dc grading type verse 17 shall they nc spare continually to slay the na tions were these hearties warriors never to be checked ho could a holy and righteous go permitl such conditions to preva for long chap 21 i will watch t see what he will say unto me n immediate answer having come t his agonized cry habakkuk wait upon god he takes the attitude c the patient listener who remain silent until the master is ready t make known his mind from th watchtower he looks out to see ho god will explain that which ha caused him such sore perplexity verse 2 the lord answered he always does when there patienc to wait for him to reveal h mind and make known his will th prophet is bidden prepared t write the vision that he ma run that readeth it the answe was not for himself but alone bi to be preserved on tables or tablet that generations then unborn lean ing thereby might hasten with tl message to others verse 3 though it tarry wa for it not at once are gods wa made plain he may seem to dela unnecessarily ong but the subje sould can wait for him to maniie himself in his own due time noi that this is the passage uoted fro the septuagint in hebrews 103 where the neuter pronoun it christ whoe coming will make a plain for this the man is to wait 1 faith verse 4 the just shall live i his faith this great principle gods answer to the prophet impassioned questioning the jus that is the righteous one lives 1 dependence on god by confiden in him who makes no mistakes fai is counting upon god to do all 1 promises while evil seems to be a powerful he who walks by fait not by sight 2 cor 57 knq that righteousness shall triumi eventually 214 and meantir god makes the wrath of man praise him and restrains what wou not do so psa 7610 auction sale
