For the “Mekers” are the Rocky Mountains with their sub­ lime views and British Columbia offers scenes entirely different from the rest. For Mr. Farmer there is some of tho finest land that lies out of doors and he can find anything he requires from an ideal site for a chicken farm to a thousand acre ranch. We grow th® finest wheat in the world and are rapidly building up a reputation for the choicest bacon and butter while our fruit and especially apples would be hard to excel. Our British Columbia apple is good, and I have heard it stated that it was probaby its bright­ est color that tempted the mother of the world, but I believe that it took the flavor and aroma of the Ontario grown article to bring about tile down­ fall of Adam. H so, if he could speak, he would probably say it compensated even for Paradise. A great and ex­ panding market for All the farmer grows, lies at our doors, while his in­ terests are looked after by a paternal government, with agricultural colleges and experimental stations at different points. To sum up, good people, it does not matter who you are or what degree you occupy in the world, whether you are a young person with nothing but your hands to help you, or of mature age with wealth to invest, you cannot any' do better than come to this young 1 growing store.

I. PETER’S DEFENCE OF TI-IE 27-35. II. GAMALIEL’S MAGNANIMUS MFNT, 38-42. Introduction — The courageous preauhmg oi the apostles and the measure of popular success with which, it was attended had the effect of soon alarming th© religious authorities in Jerusalem, and led to a warrant be­ ing issued for their arrest, Peter and his companions were accordingly seized and immured in the public giisou, and a meeting of the Jewish anhedrin was called for the follow-; ing morning, at which the prisoners would appear. Overnight, however, a strange event happened. Peter and his companions were set free by di­ vine intervention. We are net told the circumstances. The historian simply says: “An angel of the Lord j by night, opened the prison doors, and j’ brought them out, a* ’.said: “Go stand! and speak in the texa* le to the people, the whole message of life.” Conse­ quently, when the Sanhedrin met and learned that the prisoners had escap­ ed, their surprise may be imagined. Orders were instantly issued to re­ arrest, the apostles in the temple, and Peter and the other apostles were- brought in. Subsequent proceedings constitute our lesson for to-day. I. peter’s defence of the gospel, 27-35. . Vs. 27-28. The high-priest as presi­ dent of the court formulates the charge against the apostles. It is of j having disobeyed the orders of the:v4x««s», cycju. ».u*Ycn', xuxau, cups court with regard to the public i and.saucers and similar appliances by preaching of Christianity. “We strict- numbers, like collars and shoes. The ly charged you, so runs the indict-1 • ..... ........................... meat, “not to teach in the name of | Jesus." The Sanhedrin had decided that all reference to the name of Jesus in public teaching was to be theneforth illegal. What had been the result? The apostles had ignored the order. The high-priest makes two charges: (1) the apostles have filled Jerusalem with Christian ideas (2) they have aimed at fixing the guilt of Jesus' blood upon the Jewish authorities. V. 29. Peter’s apostles have no choice but to do as they are doing. God has sent them to preach to the people, and God’s auth­ ority is above that of any human tri­ bunal. The Jewish court does not recognize Jesus as the Messiah, and therefore it does not understand. But for those who do recognize Jesus as Messiah there is no alternative ex­ cept to preach him in season and out of season. “We must obey God rather than man.” Vs. 30-32. Peter unfolds his rea­ sons. (1) God has raised. Jesus from the dead. The Jews thought to sup­ press Jesus and his teaching for ever when they executed him upon the cross, but the event has proved con­ trary. Jesus lives, and it is his spirit which constrains the apostles to preach without ceasing. (2) God has raised Jesus to the throne of the uni­ verse. He i3 the Messiah and Sa­ viour, through whom. God means to save Israel by converting men to him­ self, and bestowing on them the prom­ ised forgiveness of sins. (3) The apostles are speaking from personal experience. The truths they proclaim regarding Jesus are not myths, but experienced certainties, and the Spirit of God is' with them inspiring and corroborating all that they affirm. Vs. 33-35. The prejudiced court is inflamed by what it takes to be in­ solent insubordination on Peter’s part. They had expected to receive the submission of the apostles, and when Peter instead justifies his con-, duct, there is a movement tp cut short *11 further proceedings by ord­ ering th* *postles off to execution. But from this desperate course the court is saved by the intervention of one of its members. II, GAMALIEL’S MAGNANIMOUS JUDG­ MENT, 88-42. Gamaliel begins by counseling pa­ tience. He refers to other cajses of religious movements which had come to nothing because they had no suf­ ficient foundation in the will of God, vo. 36, 37. He therefore argues that the Christian movement can De safely left to itself. History will decide whether or not it is of God. Vs. 38-39. Gamaliel's policy is simply, “Wait and see.” He makes no positive assertion regarding the claims of Christ. He asks simply for toleration. V. 40. The Sanhedrin agreed upon the resolution of Gamaliel.

C. R. Carr and Flight-Lieut. L. E.

Bedside Interview Clad in flannel pajamas covered * with a bath robe, Mr. MacDonald re­ ceived a small group of newspaper­ men in his room in Jefferson Hospital, where he has been confined for more than two weeks with severe throat ail­ ment.

However, his eye was clear and he was optimistic that he • would be able to sail next Tuesday ou the Borengarla, It was quite apparent that the Gov­ ernment Labor bill was the thing up­ permost in hU mind. “It is the most iniquitous piece of class lefifflatlon produced by blind and stupid people that I have known in the whole of my life time," said the former Premier.
