THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE SATURDAY, JANUARY 28, 1950 LET'S ALL GO TO CHURCH REGULARLY, PAGE SIXTEEN "First Gentile Church Was at Antioch : f SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON FOR SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 65, 1950 . By NEWMAN CAMPBELL IN THIS LESSON we learn of the beautiful co-operation practiced by Christians in the early days of the church. , Is it not a shame that after all these years so many differences have arisen that the church is di- vided, and often antagonistic--one sect demanding that the others should think as they think--when all have access to the Holy Book of scripture to guide them? . After the martyrdom of Stephen, the apostles scattered, some travel- ing as far as Uhoenicia, Cyprus and Antioch (see map that accompanies the Memory Verse). They preached to Jews only, but some were from Cyprus and Cyrene, and when these men came to Antioch, they preached the teachings of Jesus Christ to Greeks and others. . A great many believed and "turn- ed to the Lord." When word of this reached Jerusalem, Barnabas was U.K. Contracts Canadian Cheese The Right Honourable James G. Gardiner, Minister of Agriculture, announced January 19, that a cheese agreement had been nego- tiated with the United Kingdom which provides for a maximum quantity of approximately 85 million pounds at a price of 25 cents per pound, basis First Grade, FAS Canadian Seaboard. The Agreement provides for the shipment of 77 million pounds of cheese with a 10 per cent tolerance, that is, Canada will undertake to deliver a minimum of 70 million pounds and the United Kingdom 'will undertake to purchase up to $4,700,000 pounds. The price of 25 cents is FAS 'Canadian Seaboard as compared with a price equivalent to 31 cents FOB Montreal in the 1940 Agree- ment, The maximum quantity of cheese to be delivered in 1950 is 35,000,000 pounds greater than that of the 1949 contract. 'The Minister further announced that the Dairy Products Board has been authorized to pay a price dur. ing the year 1950 of 28 cents per d, basis First Grade, FAS Canadian Seaboard for all cheese "purchased under the terms of this 'Agreement; the difference between the pdrshase price of 28 cents at which the cheese is bought in Can- ada and the price of 25 cents per pound for sale to the United King- .dom will be made up from funds provided by the Government of Canada. This arrgngement is for the year 1950 and is designed to assist cheese producers in making the ad- justment to the lower price level. Compost Making Important Item LJ 'When & proper compost is made, the addition of fertilizer is undesir- able, at least for young vegetable , according to L. F. Ouns- worth, Dominion Experimental Sta- tion, Harrow, Ontario, He has found that more Samos | is Sone 30 he seedlings by app much fer- tilizer than by not fertilizing at all. If it is felt that fertilizer should be 'added, thoroughly mix in no more than two tablespoons per flat of soil, or three ounces per bushel. - Many growers are extremely care- 'ful about the source of their seed, are careful to treat the seed before "sowing, and watch over the seed- 'lings regularly, but use whatever "soil is the handiest when it comes 'to seeding or transplanting. But a 'poor soil cannot be improved for seedling growth simply by the addi- tion of quantities of commercial fer- tilizer A soil lacking in organic matter is difficult to moisten properly. In 'a three-inch layer of soil in a flat, the moisture is not easily' retained "unless there is sufficient organic 'matter in the soil. Thus, watering 'becomes more of a problem. In such a soil, aeration does not take place as it should and consequently the roots and the whole plant suffer. The soil becomes compacted and the roots find it difficult to develop in search of food. A good seed-bed compost should eontain at least one-third by vol- ume of rotted manure or other organic matter such as leaf mould. The compost pile should be made up at least six months in advance of its being used. A good method of building such a pile is to put a layer of sods on the ground, a layer of rotted manure, another layer of Sods, and so on, building the sides up as vertically as possible. Leave the middle lower than the edges. This will make a dish which will catch rain and keep the compost pile moist. Three Miles High, Mine Job Is Tops Vancouver (CP).--It sounds like the perfect job.. Too much phy- sical exertion is discouraged and a vacation is a "must" every three months. But Roland McPhee, a man who should know, says it has its draw- backs. Mr. McPhee, a University of British Columbia graduate, is gen- eral superintendent in South Am- erica for the Vanadium Corporation of America. The company operates the largest vahadium mine in the world, located at a 14,800-foot alti- tude in the Andes Mountains of , Back in V er recently for a Visit, he told what it is like to work nearly three miles above sea level. "Because of the altitude, it's not possible for white men to exert themselves too strenuously," he said. "Rigid medical examinations are necessary before you can go to work at the mine. - "On doctor's orders, we take a two-week vacation about every three months," he continued. "At the end of two years, we are given two nonths' holiday." oh i at ation sent to Antioch. He "was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith; and much people were added to the Lord." Seeing much work to be done at Antioch, Barnabas went to Tarsus to seek Saul. (Paul), and when he found him, he brought him to An- tioch. This is the beginning of Paul's many missionary journeys, which are shown on the map men- tioned above. For a whole year Barnabas and Saul (or Paul) stayed at Antioch, organizing the church and preach- ing, and it was here that the dis- ciples were first called Christians. When these Christians in Antioch heard that the church in Jerusalem was in need, they--"every man ac- cording to his ability"--sent relief by Saul and Barnabas. The disciples at Antioch were not rich but they sent what they could to forestall the famine which came later. That spirit of generosity bind 'Christian love is still abroad in our world, in spite of many "cold wars" and antagonisms that threaten to rend it asunder, Food, clothing, medical supplies, etc, are being sent to lands where people are in need. *That is a hopeful and happy sign. In the 12th chapter of Acts we read that Herod began again to persecute the Christians, and he killed James, brother of John, with the sword. Then, "because he saw it pleased the Jews," he took Peter and put him in prison, strongly guarded. After Easter he planned to bring Peter before the people--as Christ was brought, we may sup- pose--so that the people might be inflamed to cry, "crucify him." Peter, their beloved leader, head of the church, in prison and in danger of death, must have been a terrible blow to the other apostles. They prayed continuously for him, and their prayers were answered. "An angel of the Lord came to Peter at night ,and as he appeared to the saint, his chains fell from him, and the angel took him forth, out of the prison, out of the city gates, which opened of their own accord, and led him back to his friends. The maid, who opened the door to his knocking, was so overjoyed at sight of him that sh ran to tell the others, who at first would not believe her that it was Peter in the flesh. They said it must be his angel, but there he was and they received him with. great rejoicing. "Now there were in the church that was at Antioch, certain pro- phets and teachers; as Barnabas, and Simon that was called Niger (a common Roman name), and Lucius of Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul." Saul is mentioned last in this list, but he and Barnabas were the men the Holy Ghost selected when He said "Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them (Paul and Barnabas) away. S80 began the t mniissionary work of Saul, latef called Paul. St. Luke, who wrote the book of Acts, knew and was associated with Paul. The early part of the Acts of the Apostles he wrote from interview- ing those who had been 'with Jesus from the first and had been asso- ciated with Him all His days on earth. In the space assigned us we have no room to tell of the many in- teresting things concerning places and persons who enter into the lesson, Life From A Sick Bed By RFV. BARCLAY WARREN Life looks different from a sick- bed. Money is still important, but it is no longer an end in itself. It is only a means to an end. The contemplation of the bonds in the vault sp pleasure only as they are thought of in relation to the needs they can meet. One thinks of the pleasurss of the past. But which ones? Not 'those when he selfishly sought his own pleasure but when he did some- thing for someone. The memories of the upturned face of the thank-| ful child and the tearful eye of the grateful aged person are precious now, Fame is clothed in different light when viewed from a sickbed. The applause of men doesn't matter now, but the pertinent question is, "What does God think of me?" One learns to value friends more. I still remember the teddy bear, the mouth-organ, and the other gifts brought to me by thoughtful neighbours when I had a fractured leg at six years of age. The sick person appreciates more than words can express the telephone call, the get-well card and the kindly visit. . Jesus in a parable presents the King as saying, "Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the founda- tion of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I we- a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I CALVARY BAPTIST CHURCH Centre and John Streets "INDEPENDENT -- EVANGELISTIC -- MISSIONARY" REV.
